Princess Charlotte's 8th birthday marked with adorable new photo

May 2, 2023

Princess Charlotte's eighth birthday has been marked by an adorable photo on the week of her grandfather's coronation.

A photo of the young princess was posted to the Prince and Princess of Wales' Instagram, where she can be seen wearing a white dress and smiling.

The caption reads: "Wishing Princess Charlotte a very happy birthday! 8 tomorrow."

The wholesome photo was taken by Catherine, the Princess of Wales — who is known for her love of amateur photography.

Just last week she shared a photo of the late Queen Elizabeth II surrounded by her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Charlotte's expected to attend King Charles' coronation, along with her two brothers, Princes George and Louis.
