‘A mini me of her grandmother’

“They look amazing but I have a question as I’m ignorant: why isn’t Princess Charlotte wearing a coat? Isn’t she cold?” One person queried.

Another added: “Was it just me that was hoping Princess Charlotte was warm enough, she was the only one without a coat.”

“Hopefully wearing a thermal vest underneath,” somebody else commented.

However, another person pointed out: “It was not very cold and it is a short, covered walk from the car, only a few steps!”
