Princess Charlotte Steals the Show with Heartwarming Gesture Toward Kate Middleton at Royal Event
Princess Charlotte is being hailed as the “best daughter ever” after a touching moment she shared with her mother, Princess Kate, melted hearts during a public royal appearance.
On Monday, May 5, during the Victory in Europe Day (VE Day) commemorations in central London, the young royal stunned fans by bonding sweetly with her mom in a way that had all eyes on her.
The Princess of Wales looked elegant in a deep mulberry purple coat dress that she previously wore to another engagement, proving that even future queens know how to repurpose fashion with grace.
Kate paired the ensemble with a matching structured hat and gloved hands, exuding classic royal poise during the emotional ceremony honoring veterans and their sacrifices.
But it was her daughter, Princess Charlotte, who quietly stole the spotlight—not with words, but with her choice of outfit and subtle tribute to her mom’s timeless elegance.
The 10-year-old royal wore a familiar blue-and-green tartan coat that fans quickly recognized from her appearance at the 2024 Christmas Day service in Sandringham.
The coat, now slightly shorter due to her recent growth spurt, was both a fashion callback and a touching sign of how much Charlotte admires her stylish mother.
Royal watchers were quick to point out how Charlotte has taken to mirroring Kate’s fashion choices over the years, and this event only solidified her reputation as a mini-Princess of Wales in the making.
Body language experts also observed a tender moment during the ceremony, where Charlotte leaned into Kate and smiled—capturing a rare, candid glimpse into their close mother-daughter bond.
“She has such poise at only 10 years old,” noted one fan online. “You can tell Kate is her role model in every way.”
Charlotte’s outing came just three days after she marked her milestone 10th birthday on May 2, which was celebrated with a heartfelt message and portrait from Kensington Palace.
The new birthday photo, which was posted on the official Instagram account of the Prince and Princess of Wales, featured a glowing Charlotte in a spring floral dress with a wide, beaming smile.

Even more heartwarming was the fact that the stunning portrait was taken by Kate herself, showcasing not just the princess’s photography skills—but her deep love for her children.
“Happy 10th Birthday Princess Charlotte!” read the caption, which was met with a flood of warm wishes from royal fans across the globe.
This isn’t the first time Kate has photographed her children on their birthdays, but the tradition seems to grow even more touching each year.
The VE Day moment between Kate and Charlotte only further proves how strong their bond has become, especially during the Princess of Wales’ recent battle with cancer.
Throughout the difficult months of treatment, insiders say Kate has leaned heavily on her children—and Charlotte, in particular, has shown an extraordinary level of empathy and strength.
Observers believe Charlotte is not only following in her mother’s fashionable footsteps, but also her emotional maturity and sense of royal duty.
With each passing public appearance, the young Princess continues to blossom into a graceful and confident figure in the monarchy’s next generation.
And if this VE Day event was any indication, the royal family has plenty to be proud of in both Kate—and her remarkably poised daughter, Charlotte.
