See the Thank-You Cards Kate Middleton Sent Out for Princess Charlotte’s Birthday

It’s only been a couple of months since Princess Charlotte celebrated her 7th birthday on May 2. And now, the young royal’s parents—Kate Middleton and Prince William—are taking the time to thank everyone for their kind birthday wishes.

On Instagram, royal blogger @loopycrown3 reposted a thank you card written by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on behalf of their little girl. The message read, “Thank you for the kind birthday message which you sent for Princess Charlotte's seventh birthday. Princess Charlotte had a lovely day and your message was greatly appreciated by The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge who send you their very best wishes.”

Before her special day, the Cambridges posted a never-before-seen portrait of the young royal on the couple’s joint Instagram page. The array of photos—taken by Middleton herself—showed Princess Charlotte sitting in a field of flowers, with their family dog (named Ola) by her side. She sported a blue knit sweater with a polka-dot Peter Pan collar underneath, all while wearing a pair of navy blue slacks.

On her birthday, Middleton and William posted another picture of their daughter on Instagram, where she appeared to be all smiles. The royal couple kindly thanked everyone for the birthday messages, writing, “Thank you for all the lovely messages on Princess Charlotte’s seventh birthday!”

We’d love to receive mail from the duke and duchess...
