Princess Charlotte Falls at Trooping the Colour
Princess Charlotte had a minor mishap at Trooping the Colour today. While standing on the Buckingham Palace balcony with the rest of her relatives, the three-year-old accidentally slipped, and some viewers say she hit her head on the railing. When she became visibly upset, mom Kate Middleton quickly stepped in to comfort her little girl.

She also seemed to ask her if she was okay.
But little Charlotte quickly recovered from the slip-up like a champ. Luckily, her fall happened towards the end of the event, so she could go back inside the palace and recoup.
Falling aside, the royal tot seemed to enjoy the rest of the occasion, which she attended with her four-year-old brother, Prince George. Their dad, Prince William, was also present in military garb. Charlotte was all dressed up in a blue floral dress, which matched her mom's pale blue ensemble by Alexander McQueen.
She bonded with her cousin Savannah Philips, who also sported florals:
She showed off her spot-on princess wave, just like she did at the royal wedding:
And she, Savannah, and George went crazy when the Royal Air Force flew past:
In addition to the Queen, other royals present included Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie, Prince Andrew, Peter Philips, Autumn Philips, Savannah Philips, and Isla Philips.
Among those missing were Charlotte and George's little brother, Prince Louis, and their great-grandfather Prince Philip.
