Prince William and Kate Middleton are said to be panicking behind the scenes, and it comes after social media reacted to two videos of their daughter Princess Charlotte, on her birthday.

For those unversed, the young royal just turned 11-years-old today and despite the delight of most fans, fears are growing rampant, because of the viewership.

Over half a million each views, within hours of the videos going live is making the future King and Queen panic beyond compare. A source even weighed in on this during an interview with Woman’s Day and explain, the Prince and Princess are “taken aback” by the intense “somewhat obsessive” interest.

Interest in Princess Charlotte turns ‘manic’: ‘William and Kate are genuinely uncomfortable’

“William and Kate are genuinely uncomfortable about ‘Charlotte mania’ and the huge following she’s getting. But it may be too late to stop it.”

Moreover, in the behavior department its said “Charlotte’s doing everything [Kate and William] asked her – to be kind, gracious and well-behaved, to absolute perfection – and it’s working.”

So “she’s not going to let her folks start ‘hiding her away’, but Kate’s worried about the enormous pressure she’s taking on – she’s not even a teenager yet!”

The case is the opposite to that of her cousins Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet however, because the US-based royals have been kept far out of the limelight for decades now.
