Princess Charlotte Copies Prince William & Kate Middleton’s Body Language During Surprise Outing

It’s no secret that Prince William and Kate Middleton’s daughter, Princess Charlotte, stole the show at the 2022 Commonwealth Games with her silly faces. But if there’s one important takeaway from the surprise outing, it’s that the young royal is taking after her mom and dad.

This week, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge brought Char to day five of the annual competition. We already knew the 7-year-old looks like a young Queen Elizabeth, but we never realized how much her body language mimics that of Prince William and Middleton.

When the family spoke with athletes at the SportsAid House, they sat on a red couch. The trio looked nearly identical, leaning toward the speaker and fiddling with their fingers.

When the Cambridge family posed for a photoshoot, Princess Charlotte copied her parents’ poses by sitting with her shoulders back and clasping her hands in her lap.

That night, Prince William and Middleton took Princess Charlotte to an event at the Sandwell Aquatics Centre. Based on the photos, the Duchess of Cambridge has a unique way of clapping (notice the curve in her hand below).

But we never realized that Princess Charlotte has the same quirk.
