Princess Charlotte delighted royal fans as she made her Wimbledon debut in the royal box alongside her parents and older brother Prince George on Sunday.
The eight-year-old royal was impeccably behaved as she excitedly watched a five-hour-long nailbiting men's final match between Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz. Acing Wimbledon's summery dress code, the trendy royal tot looked sweet and chic in a fluttery floral tea dress from Spanish brand Friki and cool-girl sunglasses.
Princess Charlotte was the mirror image of her mother Princess Kate, matching her confident energy to meet the players. One moment in particular, however, shows exactly how the young royal is the Princess of Wales' mini-me. Watch it in the clip below…
One sweet moment captured from the BBC's coverage on Centre Court shows Princess Charlotte twirling her hair over her shoulder, a habit that her mum Kate has been known to adopt.

Twirling her ponytail as she stood beside her brother George, royal fans were charmed by her shyness as the Princess met with the Head of Lower School outside the school's gates.

It was later revealed that the young royal had seemingly picked up the habit from her mum, Princess Kate, who was seen displaying her ponytail-twisting trait back in 2021.
The royal effortlessly twirled her tumbling curls on a video call with teaching staff during the Covid-19 lockdown. Like mother, like daughter!
