Princess Charlotte of Wales, born on May 2, 2015, is the second child of Prince William and Princess Catherine—and currently fourth in line to the throne. Her full name, Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, honors her grandfather King Charles, her great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II, and her late grandmother Princess Diana.
Despite being part of the world’s most famous family, Charlotte is being raised with as much normalcy as possible. The Wales family lives at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, where her parents focus on privacy and routine. Like her brothers, she attends Lambrook School, which emphasizes both academics and outdoor activities.
Charlotte has already shown glimpses of her personality in public—confident, responsible, and caring. During Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee, she was even spotted reminding her brother George about royal etiquette. She enjoys gymnastics, dancing, and horseback riding, with a competitive streak that reflects her active spirit.
Her bond with her brothers George and Louis is strong; she’s often seen guiding or supporting them at big events like King Charles III’s coronation. Through her name and family stories, she also carries a special connection to Princess Diana, whom Prince William makes sure his children know as “Granny Diana.”
For now, Charlotte’s focus remains on her childhood and education, but as she grows, she’s expected to take on a greater role within the monarchy. With her poise and lively character, she’s already capturing public attention as a future key figure in the royal family.
