5 Latest Photos That Prove Princess Charlotte is a Mini-Kate Middleton

Kate Middleton and Princess Charlotte have always shared a close bond. While the young princess often draws parallels with her father, Prince William, late grandmother, Princess Diana, or her late great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, in terms of her looks, lately she has been proving that she is, in fact, her mother's daughter. Middleton's reflection in Charlotte's expressions and mannerisms during their recent joint appearances is hard to miss.

The Princess of Wales grew up sporty, and it is no surprise that she is raising her daughter to be just the same. Charlotte, along with Prince George and Prince Louis, is heavily involved in sports. During their family outing at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow on Saturday, the mother-daughter duo were completely engrossed in the netball semi-final match between Australia and Jamaica. Middleton was also spotted explaining the happenings of the game to Charlotte, creating a sweet moment.

Charlotte and Middleton are avid tennis fans, and the 11-year-old has often accompanied her mother to the most prestigious tournament of all - Wimbledon. The young princess was in the royal box during the 2026 men's final as well. Both Charlotte and Middleton were seen applauding happily and with similar mannerisms during the thrilling contest between Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev.

The Princess of Wales has always been expressive whenever she watches sports. And it seems so is Charlotte. The duo was literally on the edge of their seats, with anticipation written on their faces, as they watched the track cycling events at the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow on Saturday. William, who is usually just as passionate about sports, was seemingly calm as he sat between his wife and daughter.

Middleton is often spotted having a light-hearted moment or a fun banter with William during public engagements. And it seems that Charlotte has inherited the trait of finding small pockets of joy amidst public outings. When she attended the Wimbledon men's final this year, she and Middleton, both sporting hats for the most part, were seen discussing the game, sharing a laugh, and making funny faces at each other. If it was anyone who could steal the attention away from the high-stakes game, it was this iconic mother-daughter pair. Seems like it's not only Louis who enjoys a silly face once in a while.

At their recent Commonwealth Games outing, Middleton and Charlotte showed up as literal twins in black-and-white outfits. While the young royal opted for a frilly white dress with black detailing, the Princess of Wales donned a white midi skirt with a striped black-and-white top. She completed the look with a dark green blazer. The mother-daughter pair left their long, brown hair open, as it fought its own battle with the wind.
