Kate Middleton & Charlotte's Cheeky VE Day Behavior Says It All About Their Relationship

For royal fans, it's always special when Catherine, Princess of Wales, and William, Prince of Wales, make a public appearance with their three children. At the celebration for the 80th anniversary of VE Day, AKA Victory in Europe Day, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis joined their parents for the festivities. Yet, it was Charlotte who stuck out, in particular. And it was the seemingly sweet and goofy relationship she has with her mom that was caught on camera and caught our eye.

On May 5, 11-year-old George, 10-year-old Charlotte, and 7-year-old Louis were among the people gathered at Buckingham Palace to enjoy the celebratory parade and flypast. While they gathered on the palace balcony, Kate and Charlotte seemed particularly in sync as Kate bent down to whisper to her daughter. Whatever Kate was saying to Charlotte seemed to make the young princess laugh, which shows a fun, intimate, rarely-seen side to their mother-daughter relationship.

Charlotte's bond with her mom may be getting stronger as she grows up

It's a fairly rare occurrence when Prince William and Kate Middleton bring their children along for a public appearance. Even so, this isn't the first time Kate and Princess Charlotte's seemingly close relationship was easy to spot. In particular, Kate and Charlotte's body language at Trooping the Colour 2024 cemented their special bond. It's also easy to tell just how much Charlotte has learned from her mom. She often opts for Kate's classic hairstyles and is a master of royal rules like her mom famously is. Besides seeming like Kate's mini-me in more ways than one, though, it is clear that Charlotte and her mom also have a playful relationship that is just between them. 

Kate and Charlotte's adorable mom and daughter behavior at the VE Day celebration comes just days after the young princess got some attention online for the big smile she showed off in her birthday snap. On May 2, Charlotte turned ten years old, and The Prince and Princess of Wales' official Instagram account shared an adorable photo of her. Many folks in the comment section were taken aback by how grown up she looks and how much she is growing to resemble her famous parents. Seeing how she interacts with her mom is yet another revelation that Charlotte is growing up, and it's safe to assume that her relationship with her mother will only grow stronger from here.
