Princess Charlotte birthday photos released by Kensington Palace

Princess Charlotte turns 4 is on May 2 and to mark the occasion Kensington Palace released three photos of the adorable tot.

The Duchess of Cambridge, 37, took the shots of her daughter, which were taken in April at Kensington Palace and their Norfolk home Anmer Hall.

The last official photos released to the public of Charlotte were for the Cambridge family’s Christmas card and the little princess looks like she’s grown even taller since then.

Charlotte, the middle child, has always seemed more confident in public than her big brother George, five. She’s shown signs early on that she’s perfected her royal wave, as she made her way into the Lindo Wing with George and father William last April to meet her new baby brother Louis (who recently celebrated his first birthday).

Charlotte Elizabeth Diana was born on May 2, 2015 at 8:34 a.m. at the Lindo Wing at St. Mary’s Hospital in Paddington.

She currently attends Willcocks Nursery School and is due to start elementary school in September.
