**Prince George and Princess Charlotte Welcome New Puppy from Kate’s Brother**

Prince William and Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, recently welcomed a new addition to their family following the loss of their beloved dog, Lupo, last year.

The couple shared the heartbreaking news on social media after the passing of their Spaniel.

However, it has been revealed that Kate's brother, James Middleton, gifted them a new puppy to help fill the void.

Reports suggest that Prince George and Princess Charlotte were given the opportunity to choose their new furry companion from a litter of puppies provided by James.

The young royals ultimately selected the newest member of their family, bringing joy and excitement back into their home.

Before Lupo's passing, James had previously gifted the family an eight-month-old black puppy, who is now known to be the nephew of their late dog.

The puppy was born from a litter of six, bred by Lupo's sister last summer while James and his fiancée, Alize Thevenet, were staying with his parents in Berkshire.

The couple even shared a heartwarming photo of the adorable litter on social media.

The new puppy has since settled into the Cambridges' residence at Anmer Hall, where they have been residing during the ongoing pandemic.

James, who has been breeding puppies since 2011, has a history of providing canine companionship to the royal family.

He previously gifted Lupo to Kate when Prince William was deployed to the Falklands, offering her comfort during their time apart in the early years of their marriage.

According to a source close to the family, the Cambridges are overjoyed with their new puppy and have quickly formed a deep bond with the furry addition.

The friend shared with the Mail on Sunday that the puppy is simply adorable, and the entire family is smitten.
