Princess Charlotte’s ‘confidence’ displays Prince William, Kate’s future plans

Princess Charlotte, the daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton has seemed to master the art of charming a crowd as well as a walkabout, a skill that took many Royal Family members years to learn and perfect.

The young princess, who has been making more and more public appearances alongside her older brother, Prince George, has been looking more self-assured at high-profile family events.

Just last month, as she attended the traditional Easter Sunday church service with the Firm at Windsor Castle, Charlotte strode out in front of her parents the Prince and Princess of Wales, confidently waving to royal fans.

While at Christmas, as the royals greeted the crowds who came out to see them at Sandringham, the third in line to the throne appeared at home as she hugged well-wishers and accepted gifts, with her being compared to a mini version of the late Queen.

And according to royal expert Jennie Bond, Charlotte’s confident, polite and composed manner is all down to one thing, the family life her parents William and Kate have created for her and her older brothers George and Prince Louis.

The former BBC royal correspondent told the Mirror, “I think confidence in any child is born of a happy and stable home life. And that is precisely what William and Catherine have worked so hard at achieving for their children. Judging by the three of them, their parents have done a good job.”

She continued, “At their recent Easter outing at Windsor, it was Charlotte who looked by far the most at ease in front of the cameras and crowds, offering a little wave in their direction. Like her mother, she seems effortlessly elegant. I think she’s living proof that the Prince and Princess are entirely justified in prioritising their family in the way that they have insisted.”

"In recent decades, the royals have, with some justification, been labelled one of the most dysfunctional families in the land. And that needs to change,” the TV personality added.

“William and Catherine have faced criticism for making that change, by ring-fencing school holidays for example, and by simply being there for their children in the way royals of the past have not always been. And I think it’s making a crucial difference,” Jennie further mentioned.

However, despite her delighting in public, Charlotte and her brothers are fiercely protected by William and Kate so that their privacy remains intact and can all grow up and enjoy their school lives at Lambrook School.
