If you’ve been hanging out with us at Marie Claire and following our royals coverage (and we certainly hope you have been and will continue to), you know that we are big supporters of the “Charlotte in charge” way of life, where eight-year-old Princess Charlotte—the middle child and only daughter of the Prince and Princess of Wales—runs the show. She may be a young princess, but to her brothers (older brother Prince George and younger brother Prince Louis), she is the queen, often telling them what to do, where to stand or not stand, and correcting them if they make a mistake.
While George and Charlotte are close, Charlotte is “super protective” of little brother Louis, who, um, has been known to get up to some mischief from time to time. Last Friday, while at their mom’s “Together at Christmas” carol concert at Westminster Abbey, Louis playfully blew out Charlotte’s candle; this time, instead of correcting him, sweet Charlotte just laughed.
