Princess Charlotte has reportedly forged a “touching” bond with Duchess Sophie and has been enjoying shopping trips with her.

We are used to seeing Princess Charlotte in public at major Royal Family occasions like Trooping the Colour and the Christmas Day service, and she tends to always be accompanied by Prince William and Kate. However, this summer the 9-year-old, who is third in the royal line of succession, has reportedly been enjoying some quality time with her great-aunt Duchess Sophie. The Duchess of Edinburgh has been spotted engaging in lively conversations with Princess Charlotte and her siblings at royal events. Now, according to The Sun, she has been taken out on fun shopping trips in London by Duchess Sophie during the school holidays.
