How Princess Charlotte Brought Levity To The Queen's Solemn Day

Today is perhaps one of the most solemn of days in England's history. The death of Queen Elizabeth II has sent shockwaves throughout the world, and her funeral is expected to have been watched by billions of eyes across the globe. Besides the public being present on the sidelines witnessing the procession carrying the queen's coffin, the people closest to her have been front and center all morning. While the adults like King Charles III, William, Prince of Wales, and Prince Harry are gathering the most attention, some of Queen Elizabeth's great-grandchildren are also present for the proceedings. However, the child catching the most attention through all of this is Princess Charlotte.

Another royal watcher got choked up during Charlotte's smiling moment, tweeting, "The pipers got me 1st up. Little Princess Charlotte looking out from the car got my husband."
