Princess Charlotte has hit the double digits!
Prince William and Kate Middleton’s daughter turned 10 on Friday, and the couple released a new portrait to celebrate.
“Happy 10th Birthday Princess Charlotte!” they captioned an Instagram photo of the preteen smiling outdoors in a camouflage jacket.
The little one wore her hair pulled back into a ponytail, completing her look with a blue backpack and black pants.
Middleton took the sweet snap with an iPhone, a royal first, during a hike in Cumbria.
In the 2024 photo marking her ninth year, Charlotte grinned while leaning on a bush.
Previous birthday shots have shown her hugging a dog, relaxing in a wicker chair and posing in multiple floral dresses.
The Princess of Wales, 43, gave birth to Charlotte in May 2015, with the little one joining big brother Prince George, now 11.
Prince Louis arrived in May 2018.
Charlotte frequently makes headlines for reprimanding her siblings during public outings, most recently at last year’s Trooping the Colour.
During the June 2024, event, Charlotte was caught on camera scolding Louis — who is famous for stealing the show with silly expressions — as he danced.
She also reminded George to bow during Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in September 2022.
Charlotte is known for her “feisty” personality, royal expert Charles Rae explained to GB News in February 2024.
“She, at times, does put her brothers — including George, who one day will be king — in their place,” she noted. “She’s all sweet and nice and everything else, but she can tell them off if she wants to.”
Rae claimed that Charlotte has a “warrior nickname” at her school.
The princess joined George at Thomas’s Battersea in London in 2019.
In 2022, William and Middleton moved their children to Lambrook School in Berkshire following their family’s Windsor move.
