Charlotte seems to be old beyond her years, as the Queen herself was, she seems to understand protocol- a testament to the way her parents have raised her. She already knows when to bow, even reminding Prince George- incredibly touching
@Cilla Murfin I dont doubt it, all I was pointing out is that people seem to imagine what they want to see without any actual objective evidence for what they claim to have perceived. I suspect that those making claims about how they were moved had already made their minds up about what they wished to see and then simply shoe horned what they saw into their fantasy and preferred version of reality. All that video shows is pictures of a child, nothing more. Shes not particularly sad and is behaving like she was told to and wearing what she was dressed in. There us nothing particularly touching about it in itself. The narrator has to tell you it was touching and if you found it so its because you wanted it to be, despite the fact that it is quite neutral and if you didn't know they were at a funeral, nothing in the child's demeanour wold have suggested that they are. Its a curious thing that people are so eager to have the fiction they have constructed in their verified that they literally see something other than what they are looking at.
Harry was trapped! Charlotte is a lot like her Great granny! Nobody should ever try to bring a rift btw the siblings. Any siblings! She was curious who Harry even is. She barely knows him! It was nice to see heir lovely interaction and good she sat besides him and no..I dont think all tht was Harry s fault...but the woman s!
@Liam Black - The children attend royal functions maybe 1% of their time. They live in a mansion that is the absolute Mecca for playing hide-and-seek, they have a beautiful sandy playground on the property which is shrouded by trees and where they can play for hours in privacy, they have a tree fort which was reportedly built by William and Harry when they were boys, and they have a bevy of nannies and personal assistants to "play" with them when parents are involved in Royal duties. I don't think they lack for a single childhood memory that is carefree and relaxed.
@SPNN4 S I also see William's eyes when I look at Charlotte. Didn't William say once that he mistook a photo of Charlotte as if it were a photo of Diana?
Charlotte reminds me of Elizabeth at the same age. Maturity at such a young age is a sign of many positive traits, most notably, dignity and intelligence. Elizabeth grew into an accomplished and treasured leader. Perhaps the greatest of all time.
I agree! I read a book made for the queens platinum jubilee and it said that as a young child she was stern and fit to be a monarch. The book said that Elizabeth, as a young girl, knew that even when she hurt her knee she couldn't cry
Charlette is such a outstanding child, all the children are really, but she seems to take on that "care-giver" role that her great grandmother, grandmother and mother have, and at a very young age. She will make the Royal Family very proud.
The Queen is the past, Charles is the present, while William, George and Charlotte are the future. It was nice to see this continuity embodied at the funeral, and the two little ones did so well.
William and Kate made the right choice. I think it was incredibly important for both George and Charlotte to be at their Gan Gan's Funeral. They will appreciate it even more as they grow up, that they were apart of this historical occasion and the fact that their Gan Gan was the Queen of England and all the Commonwealth Countries. Of just how really important their Gan Gan was.
@Pussy Postlethwait's Aeronautical Antics Yeah why is that done so much? It'd be like calling Joe Biden the President of Delaware or Donald Trump President of New York City or Barack Obama President of Illinois and so on.
I agree my father died when i was around George's age and my grandmother and my mom were in a heated discussion over me attending my father's funeral and I sided with my mother and didn't go to my fathers funeral ( i didn't really understand death at that age ) i now regret that i sided with my mom and i wish i would've went . I believe it would've given me closure on that chapter of my life . I believe William and Catherine did the right thing by giving George and Charlotte the choice to attend or not
Elizabeth II, was Queen of the United Kingdom, not just England. The clue is in 'United' and 'Kingdom'. She was also Queen of 14 other Commonwealth realms. The last Queen of England was Elizabeth I. She died in 1603. England = a country within the island of Great Britain; England shares land borders with Wales to its west and Scotland to its north and is part of the United Kingdom. Great Britain = large geographical island in the British Isles comprising three small countries: England, Scotland, and Wales. United Kingdom = country and kingdom consisting of four smaller countries: England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. English = belonging to or relating to England, or its people: Englishwoman, Englishman. British = belonging to or relating to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, or to its people (English, Scottish, Welsh, and Northern Irish) or its culture. Englishwoman = me. Hope this helps. xx
I agree , our son was 10 when his Great Grand Auntie died and asked to go to the funeral. We were worried BUT it was his way of dealing with the death. She was an Auntie in every sense of the word. It was the correct decision and George and Charlotte will grow up realising it was the right thing to do.
@Marilyn Willett Yes, such a touching moment. He had been holding a rolled up paper prior to that moment, he must have given this to his mother to hold so he could make that salute. She was holding it while he saluted. Such a smart little guy to turn to his mother, hand her the paper so he could properly salute. Somehow he knew to do this.
@Mary Mathis On his 3'rd birthday little John John stood at attention at his father's coffin and saluted it as it passed by, the president John F. Kennedy. but Louie could sit still.
I know he could not have been included but I’m thinking the Queen would have been enjoying his antics had he been there. As I say she liked it sometimes when things went wrong and she still enjoyed mischievousness.
Queen Elizabeth would be so proud of Princess Charlotte and Prince George, on such a dark day for their entire family, these two children were the shining light.
How true! Be sure she was proud of them, she knew them since the day they were born! Bravo to the two adorable kids and congratulations to Prince William and Princess Kate for being the living example to their children! ❤️
Not so much a little queen as a glimpse at the one who will fill Princess Anne's role, not only as the next princess royal but also the no-nonsense dedication to duty. It would be interesting to see what kind of training the children are experiencing for her to behave as she already does.
This little princess gives me our late beloved queen vibes all the time a stickler for protocol her smile the shape of her eyes looking out for her big brother making sure he does the right thing and all at 7 years old she's absolutely adorable
I just couldn’t agree more! The two little royals left the best of the impressions to the whole world! God bless you George and Charlotte! I hope I live long enough to see William being crowned as the King and you two growing and flourishing! God Bless the King! ❤️
The children behaved as perfect Royal children have always behaved - dignified, well-trained for their role in life. Princess Charlotte bears a strong resemblance to Her Majesty. God bless the children.
@LJ60 yes TAUGHT not trained as all children are in every kind of household all their lives. You can't be interested in teaching about children's early learning years and then "train" them to attend their grandmother's funeral! Such a dichotomy ...
@mala Gupta she's a child in Royal household where I'm sure she has been taught something which the child living down the street from you or me wouldn't have been
She reminds me of my youngest daughter. My heart was so broken watching her wipe her tears. My father passed away a few months ago and I have seen first hand how hard loosing a grandparent and great grandparents can be for a little one. Keep your head up young princess! You already carry yourself so gracefully just like the Queen, God rest her soul.
You can tell from a lot of footage that young George is beginning to grasp of what life could be years ahead as a royal.A solemn face all throught and this occasion has been an incredible learning for him.
Yes, I too saw something from the future. I dare say that it may even by pass George and go directly to Queen Charlotte! We never know, he may choose to step down or abdicate. We love them either way...💙❤🙏🙏 Idk..but I've predicted a many things in life that have come to be.
@David's World When interviewed 2 weeks ago, Megan continues to blame the Monarchy for not "teaching" her how to act, as much as she says she tried. Her excuse; I'm an Actress and I'm used to being told by others how to act, where to stand and what to say'. No class! Either your born with it or your not! She has none!
This little girl is making history and so many already admire her. She's going to be a wonderful leader one day. She reminds me a lot of Queen Elizabeth and Princess Anne.
Princess Charlotte and Prince George were amazing so mature, respectful beautiful children. Prince William has a beautiful loving family so happy for him .❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
They were one of the highlights for me. Some clever person has found that brooch belonged to the Queen Mother and even shared pictures. As for the 'heartwarming' moment between Harry and Princess Charlotte, that is media hyperbole, he barely raised a smile - stop exaggerating.
Yeah..totally!! It to me seemed a look of.. 'why have you changed so much? What are you doing by leaving the family..I'm a kid I don't understand but I know something is not right'. That's the reading I saw...a definite slight 'distrust' or maybe even asked not to tell him..or HER, more so..too much about their feeling or situation. He barely curved his left side of lip up to smile.
Oh chill out. If he fully smiled at her, people would be berating him for smiling during a funeral and breaking protocol. He has done nothing wrong to warrant the complete and utter barrage of hate he gets.
She is average, not gorgeous, not beautiful, certainly not classy or dignified, at 7. you people sound so pathetic, look to your own kids, dress them better, put a dress and coat on your daughters instead of rags. if i could do it with my girls at 25 you can put more thought into raising your kids.
Yeah but it’s so lovely she had an opportunity to have such lovely great grandkids. Princess Charlotte was more than a royal. She’s so confident and had the Queen’s blood flowing through her vain 🌹
That moment as Charlotte looks at harry, the innocence of hope,she's 7 and nothing else. Charlotte normally looks like such a grown up but in that one instance the potographer picked up a 7 yearl old wanting her uncle's attention.
@James Gerrard she is 3rd in line, after Prince William and Prince George. If something happens to Prince George, God forbid, she will ascend to the throne.
They are children and with them this needs to stop. Royalty is not justifiable in a modern wrold and they are human like us. Already these children are being told, because of titles and inherited wealth from theft and slavery, that their future is to sit on a throne and do useless tours. Charlotte looks like a girl who knows her own mind like her great-gran and they shouldn't be told this is their future in such an archaic role.
@SPNN4 S shit* I don't understand why people are unable to type basic words, but rather "censor" them. Are you afraid of the internet police coming to arrest you for being naughty?
Wow, an incredible introduction to Princess Charlotte’s impeccable protocol at her great grandmother’s funeral!! So delighted to see these young royals at the occasion!! Thx for the history of her ‘royal’ brooch! What an honor for her to wear this historical piece of jewelry! Also, another glowing example of her mother, Princess’s Kate’s oversight and tutoring of her children!!
Dear Lord, these children were just wonderful. Prince George and Princess Charlotte paid their final respects to their great grandmother with such dignity. Really touching. The funeral was amazing, what a wonderful historic farewell to a wonderful Queen. May she rest in peace. 🖤
This poem is dedicated to Queen Elizabeth II may she rest in peace Queenie I love the Queen she was never horrible I never mean, she was a wonderful head of state, with all the worlds problems on her plate, like politicians destroying her country, upholding traditions and all their superstitions, she was assiduous to her duties, carried out with grace and beauty, she Devoted her life to the service of this country, a dutiful wife, bringing life, bearing the sorrows of her nation, Regal and sovereign A Jewel in the Crown Of gods beautiful creation, Love Litany ✨👑🙏🇬🇧👜✨
Yes. There is a bit of Diana's family as there is a resemblance to Diana's brother. But Prince George looks a lot like early photos of his Great grandfather King George VI and Edward VIII.
So beautiful seeing educate children again. God, thank you for the opportunity you gave me of still witness this parent’s achievement. Most of the actual time, children own their parents and do whatever they want at any time.
I'm surprised it didn't show the picture of her crying. It was so heartbreaking to see that. Her mom was comforting her by placing her hand on her back.
I saw it !! Lovely children the Wales family are - and so are their parents! Not many people could carry out all the burdens of their heritage and do it in the terribly unfair and critical public domain. Well done to Prince William, Princess Catherine and their children!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👍👍👍
Princess Charlotte is just too cute for words.. what a little sweetheart like her mom, so dignified, beautiful, watch her, she's going to be a force to reckon with, like Pr. Anne.
Oh my God, isn’t Princess Charlotte just adorable! She is an absolutely georgus child with impeccable manners! And the older she gets the more she is beginning to look like a young Queen Elizabeth which is a wonderful thing! Px
These little people were wonderful. Dealing with their own loss and behaving in such an exemplar-airily way was wonderful. Their parents should be very proud of them. ❤
These 2 kids were admirable during their granny's funeral. Behaved, polite, and following their royal protocols in every move. Can you imagine a 7 and 9 yr old keeping up on a grueling long hours of funeral with adults? If I'm in that age, I would have walked out.
It is very plain to see that Princess Charlotte is already taking her Royal duties very seriously for one so young. She is definitely like her late Great Grandmother, The Queen, in more ways than just appearance.
I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days, and I hope God bless you to have a great day today, I'm Roy from Overbrook Kansas. Where are you from ?
Why aren't there more articles praising little George? He seem to be such a shy and well behave boy like his grandmother Diana. Poor bashful boy is deserving of more tlc from the media, right?
@phangirlable You can say that again. She was anything but shy it was another media label. Just like John Kennedy Jr. was never called John John by his family. The media invented that too.
@phangirlable She was known the world over as Shy Di, she was an aristocrat before she ever married him, and extremely well behaved, all she wanted was the man who took vows with her, but she stayed around long enough, you cant keep a beautiful woman down, unless you have her murdered like charles did,
They are so young! The elder brother is 9 years old and the younger sister is 7 years old, but they have to suffer the pain of life and death! 😭😭😭 The reality is so unfair! May God bless them! ! ! ❤️🙏🙏🙏
Шарлотта наследница потрясающих царственных особ. В её крови наследие Дианы - королевы сердец и королевы Елизаветы, сильных духом умных и великих женщин
Harry brought his kids to live in pedo hollywood land, where they wont know their own maternal grandfather, none of you sickos care about right from wrong,
@Still&WillBelieve They don't have a duty to do squat. They aren't rulers. They take have duties to maintain the family's honor so that people let them keep their titles. That is how they still exist. They are allowed to exist. But not all of them can handle that sort of pressure. Harry can say what he wants. He doesn't owe anyone shit. Like, you said he already did his duty. He's earned the right to be heard. And his whole family is one big made up story. The monarchy is one big made up fantasy. It's a charade. Yes, they are mascots. They are allowed to continue because they bring Great Britain tourism money and international fame. So they try to maintain a perfect image of one big united family of honor but then there are sickos like Prince Andrew. And the monarchy got all its wealth from conquest and stealing. Some people would love to see them abolished. So like I said, you should get a life. Stop worshipping this idea of how Royals should behave. Have some dignity yourself and learn to compliment people without being bitter a snide for no reason.
@Angel Rose Again i say that Royals is not a mascot, they have duties to their people, even Harry himself served 2 tours in Afghanistan, so imo that statement of yours is both disrespectful and ignorant I get it that life as royals has it's own challenge and some wishes for a quiter life, and tbh some royals did have quiter life for example prince Edward, if Harry wishes to live his own life then he can do it in more respectable way, with silence and dignity, not telling stories left right and down for money that upsetting his family
@Still&WillBelieve There are people who are born rich and live exactly like royals but they don't have "duties". Yes, people envy those people but they were just born rich - they didn't ask to be. It is the same for royals. They didn't ask to be born one. Their "head of state" status is for show. It IS nothing but a fancy mascot title. They do not rule. Get that straight. They don't have a duty to anyone. They act like they do so as to keep a semblance of deserving their titles and respect. But they are human beings and there are problems in the royal family that stem from outdated mindsets about what it means to be a royal. People have been hurt. They ALL need therapy in my opinion. The whole family. Talking about and acknowledging the toxicities in your family is not "playing victim." But British Royalty are terrible at seeing their own errors because they have an image they uphold. An image people like you are obsessed with. That creates a toxic atmosphere I wouldn't want to be anywhere near. I grew up with a king wanna-be obsessed with his public image like a royal, and I am not playing a victim to point out what a terrible life he made for our family. It was horrible. And neither is Harry playing victim. Playing victim is when you are guilty of doing wrong but you pin the blaim on others. Harry hasn't done anything wrong. There is nothing for him to pin. You all are still mad he married an Black American women. Get over it. Maybe you should get a life. You can't even watch a funeral video and leave one simple positive comment about someone without judging and leaving negative little snide comments about Harry. No wonder he moved to my country. You're all obsessed with picking him apart like fanatics. Pick apart the new king instead. He helped create the toxic family life Harry wanted to escape. Or maybe shut it if you have nothing nice to say and watch the funeral videos in peace. The queen is dead. The next few years are gonna change everything. You'll have plenty of new things to complain about.
@Kate Pausig apparently Harry is the one who can't shut up, doing podcast here and interview there, while backstabbing his family Granted that all Royals have their duty that must be fulfilled and sometimes the that duties and all protocol that they have to follow isn't easy, but that's the exchange for all the privilege they've received since birth, noblesse oblige right? so you're saying that you are okay with Royals who has and still received their perks without the fulfilling the responsibilities they required to? if really wanted to go then just go quitely, no sane person will treat him as a victim after all the facilities and privilege he received
@Still&WillBelieve Harry didn't have a choice in his "job" he was forced into it by birth. He doesn't have to do squat if he doesn't want. Even royals should have a say of what to do with their lives. Please, shut up.
Sometimes, when I look at Princess Charlotte, I feel I'm looking at the Queen. It's a look she has, that looks just like her great-grandmother. She has become so polished. Catherine & William have done a great job preparing their children for their lives ahead. 👏❤
I teach 7 and 9 years olds at school everyday and can't imagine them staying still and quiet for more than 30 minutes or one hour at least.... The two small royals really have incredible patients and self-restraint. Can't wait to see what the future will bring to them
These children are amazing to me. The poise they both already have at such young ages. The posture and seriousness of Princess Charlotte, I believe, shows that even at her young age, she is aware of her importance. No doubt her mother, Princess of Whales has taught her well and is molding her into the Royalty she is. I am an American, but I truly adore the Royal Family. Their lives are fascinating to me.
From an angle, little Charlotte glance on her uncle Harry…with lots of compassion,’bless her". It’s too much sorrow 😔 to introduce to children at this age. 😔
SWEET PRINCESS CHARLOTTE HELPING HER BROTHER TRAIN FOR HIS ROLE OF FUTURE CHILDREN. KATE AND WILLIAM ARE RAISING REMARKABLE CHILDREN. I LOVE WATCHING PRINCE LOUIS BEFORE THE QUEEN'S FUNERAL, HE IS SUCH A COMED8AN. I AM SURE HE IS GIVING KATE AND WILLIAM MORE THAN A FEW GREY HAIRS.!!
I think she's going to be an incredible royal, like her great-grandmother, and Princess Anne. Some people cannot fathom why so much attention has been paid to this succession. It is not 'A' monarchy, it is 'THE' monarchy. No other compares. As a Belgian, I am also a royal subject, but I would be foolish to say that all monarchies are equal.
