Kate Middleton and Prince William shared a new portrait of Princess Charlotte in honor of her birthday

Today, May 2, Princess Charlotte celebrates her birthday — the only daughter of Kate Middleton and Prince William turns six years old. In honor of this event, a new portrait of the princess was traditionally published. The author of the picture was again her mother, the Duchess of Cambridge. It is known that Kate is fond of photography and many official photos of family members are made by her.

In the photo, Charlotte poses in an elegant dress with a floral print from the line of the British brand Rachel Riley. The cost of the dress is only 59 pounds.

It is noteworthy that this photo was provided to the press, but has not yet been published in the official account of the Dukes of Cambridge, as it usually happens.

The fact is that representatives of the royal family have decided to join the boycott of social networks this weekend, initiated by the British football community.

This weekend we join the UK football community and the social media boycott from 15: 00 on Friday 30 April to 23: 59 on Monday 3 May in response to the constant online abuse received by players and many other members of the football community,

So how exactly Charlotte will celebrate her sixth birthday is still unknown. Recall that last year, on the eve of her birthday, the princess helped to collect and deliver food packages to those in need. Back then, the UK had a hard lockdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.
