The story behind Princess Charlotte’s 9th birthday portrait — and was it Photoshopped?

Princess Charlotte's cheeky response when an aide attempted to assist her with a delightful gift has been revealed.

his coronation last year, according to royal biographer Robert Hardman’s book, “The Making of a King: King Charles III and the Modern Monarchy.”In the book, per People magazine, Hardman claimed that Charles, 75, and Queen Camilla, 76, were early to the coronation at Westminster Abbey in London, England, on May 6, 2023. The Prince and Princess of Wales were supposed to be there eight minutes before the king and queen consort, but they arrived “a minute and a half late” with their two younger children, Princess Charlotte, 9, and Prince Louis, 6.Hardman described the situation as “an awkward scene,” and explained that the delay in the coronation created “an added layer of stress” for Charles and Camilla.The author also revealed a lip reader’s translation of what Charles said in footage captured on a Sky News camera as he was waiting for his son and daughter-in-law.“We can never be on time … There’s always something … This is boring,'” Hardman claimed the monarch said.

While the likes of Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis can expect to one day hold senior titles, such as the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal and perhaps the Duke of Cambridge or the Duke of York, many of the late Queen's other great-grandchildren will never gain an official style. This was the case for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's young children until the couple made the announcement in March 2023 that they did not wish to deny Archie and Lilibet of their "birth right" - and moved to change the way the youngsters were styled.

Prince George may be the eldest out of the three Wales Children and will one day be crowned King but according to the late Queen, it's his little sister Princess Charlotte who's the real boss.

Princess Charlotte may have just turned nine but she is said to be in charge at home and her strong, confident personality is something her parents, William and Kate, are all too aware of.
