Kate, Princess of Wales, shared a sweet moment with her daughter Charlotte at the royal Easter Sunday service.

On April 5, the Prince and Princess of Wales attended the annual service at St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle with their three children.

Prince George, 12, Princess Charlotte, 10, and Prince Louis, seven, waved and smiled as they arrived at the service on Sunday.

Following the service, a sweet moment between Kate and Charlotte was captured on camera.

Meanwhile, Charlotte rewore a beige coat she previously sported at the Christmas Day walkabout last year. She wore a light blue dress underneath for the Easter service.

Kate wore her brunette locks in relaxed waves and Charlotte also had her hair down. The young princess had some of her hair braided on each side of her head, with the braids then tied at the back, going into a one braid.

Change in Princess Charlotte’s behaviour during public outings

Former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond praised Charlotte’s confidence during the walkabout as she greeted those who had gathered with handshakes and hugs.

She told the Mirror: “The children are an absolute delight to see at occasions like this. I think William and Catherine have done a wonderful job in acclimatising all three children to public life.

“I was struck, in particular, by how confident young Charlotte seemed on Christmas Day.

“She was launching into the crowd by herself, no longer with her mother’s guiding hand on her shoulder, chatting with the well-wishers who’d gathered, bending down to shake hands with wheelchair users, and even giving one or two members of the crowd a big hug.”
