The trio were seen in the stands at the Sandwell Aquatics Centre where they watched the swimming heats. Seven-year-old Charlotte stole the show, wearing a dazzling nautical dress by one of her most-worn designers, Rachel Riley. The versatile dress is made in a soft jersey material with a classic navy and ivory breton stripe. It comes with a signature peter pan collar with a lace trimmed edge.
