Prince William, Kate Middleton get pat on the back over Princess Charlotte

Princess Charlotte‘s personality and confidence showcases Prince William and Kate Middleton have a strong trip at parenting.

The young Wales, who has turned 11 today, is praised for her happy personality, as Royal expert credits her stable home life.

Jennie Bond, 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 adds: “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.

“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,” she noted.
