The picture shows the young royal wearing a blue and white striped knit from Boden, and beaming at the camera as she puts her arms around the family's pet cocker spaniel, Orla. "Thank you for all the birthday wishes," the social media caption read.
The image of the Princess was captured by Millie Pilkington - William and Kate's private photographer from their 2011 wedding day. The photographer also recently took the official photos of Prince Louis to mark his fifth birthday last month.
On the eve of Charlotte's birthday, Kensington Palace released a photograph of the Princess taken by mum Kate at the family's Windsor home, Adelaide Cottage over the weekend.
Charlotte, who is the image of a young Prince William, is pictured wearing a white and floral embroidered summer dress as she flashes a grin in a white wicker chair.
Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana of Cambridge was born in the Lindo Wing of St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington, London, at 8.34am on May 2 2015, weighing 8lbs 3oz. She is a great-great-great-great-great-grandchild of Queen Victoria and is third in line to the throne.
The Prince and Princess of Wales are expected to be joined by their three children at the King's coronation on Saturday 6 May, with Prince George given a starring role as one of his grandfather King Charles's pages of honour.
