Princess Charlotte Guides Prince George in Royal Protocol at Queen Elizabeth’s Funeral

Princess Charlotte took charge during Queen Elizabeth's funeral, instructing her older brother, Prince George, on royal etiquette.

The young princess, known for her expertise in royal protocol, was captured on camera advising Prince George, 9, to bow as they awaited the passing of the late Queen's coffin at Wellington Arch.

In a heartwarming moment, 7-year-old Charlotte could be seen gently telling her brother, “You need to bow,” as he attentively listened to her guidance.

This display of sibling support is not new for Princess Charlotte, who has previously been seen correcting her siblings' royal behavior.

At Trooping the Colour in June, the trio of young royals rode together in a carriage for the first time.

During the procession, Charlotte and Louis delightedly waved to the crowd until Charlotte decided to take a brief rest, prompting Louis to continue waving until she intervened by placing his hand back on his lap.

During the Platinum Jubilee celebrations for the late monarch, Princess Charlotte once again demonstrated her keen eye for decorum.

When the national anthem, God Save the Queen, played, Prince George was observed with his hand resting on the balcony ledge.

Charlotte gently nudged her brother's arm, signaling him to stand up straight and adjust his posture, which he promptly did.

In a poignant tribute to her great-grandmother, Princess Charlotte adorned herself with a diamond horseshoe brooch on her black coat during the funeral ceremonies.

The sentimental piece, gifted to her by Queen Elizabeth, symbolized the late Queen's passion for horses.

Additionally, Charlotte donned a hat for the first time at the Westminster Abbey service, adhering to the tradition for British women attending formal events.

The young siblings, George and Charlotte, are following in the footsteps of their father, Prince William, who attended Princess Diana's funeral at the age of 15.

However, Prince Louis, aged 4, was deemed too young to participate in Monday's somber event alongside the rest of the family.

Princess Charlotte's poised demeanor and attention to detail in upholding royal customs have not gone unnoticed, showcasing her natural inclination towards grace and responsibility at a young age.

As the next generation of the British monarchy, the siblings continue to navigate their roles with guidance from their parents and the legacy of their esteemed ancestors.
