Princess Charlotte, the only daughter of Kate and William, holds the position of third in line to the throne. However, royal experts believe she is unlikely to follow in the footsteps of full-time working royals and will likely need to pursue a career instead. This shift is in line with her grandfather’s plan to reduce the monarchy’s size.

According to royal expert Richard Eden, “From what I hear, the Prince and Princess of Wales want Charlotte, aged seven, to grow up with the expectation that she will get a job and not be a full-time royal,” he shared with the Mirror.

“This path for the young Princess would be in keeping with her grandfather, King Charles III’s, vision for a slimmed-down monarchy.”

Charlotte is truly a remarkable young lady, and her personality continues to shine brighter with each passing day. Along with her two brothers, she attends the prestigious Lambrook School, where students enjoy a wide range of activities, including caring for animals and participating in various sports such as cricket, rugby, football, and golf.

Princess Charlotte is a fan of soccer.

Last year, she joined her parents at the Commonwealth Games, and shortly after, they visited a charity called SportsAid House, which Kate has supported since 2013. During their visit, Tim Lawler, the charity’s chief executive, shared Charlotte’s favorite sport.

“She really, really loved seeing the swimming, but she’s also quite into gymnastics. When I asked her about sports, she didn’t hesitate and said, ‘It’s gymnastics that I like,’” he explained.

“Charlotte is really into gymnastics, doing cartwheels, handstands, you name it,” the Princess of Wales shared. “It’s great for their foundational skills, like balance and coordination.”

Prince William added, “And their flexibility, it’s fantastic for their long-term health, right? We recently watched Cirque du Soleil, and it was incredible.”

When it comes to raising their children, an insider shared that Kate and William chose to avoid using the “naughty step” in their household. Instead, they opted for a “chat sofa” and made it a rule never to raise their voices at their kids.

“The naughty child is taken away from the scene of the row or disruption and talked to calmly by either Kate or William,” the royal source explained. “Things are explained, consequences are outlined, and they never shout at them.”
