Royal fans were quick to comment on how the six-year-old is swiftly taking after her mother, Duchess Kate, both in confidence and style. Taking to Twitter, one royal fan penned: "Princess Charlotte is such a confident young girl. Credit to her parents," as another wrote: "Princess Charlotte is growing up so fast, she's going to be super tall just like her mum!"

The young royal adopted one of her mother's favourite hairstyles, twisting her brunette locks into a half-up, half-down style and adding a simple blue ribbon. So sweet!

William and Kate's daughter looked enchanting in a crisp, royal blue coat complete with a sweet Peter Pan collar, gold button detailing and neat front pockets as she arrived at Westminster Abbey.

George, eight, and Charlotte, six, who were not previously announced on the royal guest list, made a surprise appearance at Westminster Abbey for Prince Philip's service - much to the delight of royal fans.

They are currently enjoying their Easter holidays, having broken up for the school holidays last Friday.

It's understood their little brother Prince Louis, three, was too young to attend the service.
