Prince William, Kate Middleton share new photo of Princess Charlotte on 10th birthday
Princess Charlotte, the second-eldest child of Prince William and Kate, the Princess of Wales, is celebrating her 10th birthday.
William and Kate marked their daughter's birthday by sharing a new photo of Charlotte on social media.
The photo, taken by Kate, shows a smiling Charlotte wearing a backpack and a camouflage jacket while sitting outside with mountains in the background.
"Happy 10th Birthday Princess Charlotte! ❤," the photo's caption reads.
Charlotte was born May 2, 2015, at St. Mary's Hospital in London, the same hospital where her brothers, Princes George and Louis, were also born.
The only daughter of William and Kate, Charlotte's full name, Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, is a tribute to her great-grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth II, and her grandmother, the late Princess Diana.
As William and Kate's second child, Charlotte is third in line to the throne, behind her father and older brother George.
The 10-year-old has made more public appearances with her parents as she has gotten older, but she is expected to celebrate her 10th birthday privately with her family in Windsor, where they now live.
Charlotte's most recent public appearance was in December, when she and her siblings and parents joined other family members walking to church on Christmas Day.
Just one week ago, on April 23, the Wales family celebrated the birthday of Charlotte's younger brother Louis, who turned 7.
On Tuesday, Charlotte's parents William and Kate marked their 14th wedding anniversary.
