Insiders Reveal How Princess Charlotte Is Already Turning into a Mini-Kate Middleton

It’s no secret that Princess Charlotte looks up to her mother, Catherine, Princess of Wales (better known as Kate Middleton); but insiders claim that she’s turning more and more into Kate every day. In fact, insiders claim that Charlotte is doing so many of her mother’s hobbies, that she’s practically turned into a mini-me of Kate!

Insiders told Life and Style Magazine that Charlotte has quite a few of the same hobbies as her mom, and is even the one who upholds the rules, much like Kate.

“While Charlotte looks like Prince William, she really is a mini Kate,” they said to the outlet. “She loves the outdoors, dogs, photography and fashion. She even shops for herself!”

For those who don’t know, Kate is a major sports fanatic, often pictured playing any sport she can get her hands on. The whole family loves their dog Orlo, so that’s not a big shocker there. But photography and fashion? Those are two of Kate’s passions; and now Charlotte’s.

“Charlotte rules the roost with her brothers, which has been clear since she was little,” they said. “As the middle child, she’s the glue. She helps Kate out by keeping the boys in check.”

So, Charlotte knows all the rules and makes sure everyone follows them? We’ve seen that time and time again, and it just shows she really is a mini-Kate, through and through.

For those who don’t know, William and Kate have been together on and off since 2003. Since their nuptials, they have since welcomed three children named George, 11, Charlotte, 9, and Louis, 6.

In a previous podcast episode of Happy Mum, Happy Baby, hosted by Giovanna Fletcher, via Town and Country, Kate talked about how she incorporates her family traditions into her parenting.

“I had an amazing Granny who devoted a lot of time to us—playing with us, doing arts and crafts, and going to the greenhouse to do gardening, and cooking with us—and I try and incorporate a lot of the experiences that she gave us at the time into the experiences that I give my children now,” she said.
