Princess Charlotte Has Been Making Headlines At A Young Age

Being constantly under the public's radar is a significant drawback of royal life, yet Charlotte's wealth may be growing partly due to her exposure. The 7-year-old, according to the Evening Standard, inherited the same trendsetting gene as her mother. Charlotte, as the third in line to the British throne, is naturally a global ambassador for British fashion.

The princess has quite a collection of floral outfits, which she has worn while touring British allies like Poland, Germany, and Canada. Even though she has a soft spot for pastel cardigans, the youngest princess is far from a boring dresser. The media hysteria that ensues whenever Princess Charlotte is spotted in a new outfit has been dubbed 'The Charlotte effect'.

It's all because of the tiny princess's impeccable sense of style. Statistics and polls on children's clothing sales indicate that Charlotte has become a prominent style symbol.

Attending Royal Events And Residing In A Massive Home

Princess Charlotte has been trained for years in the proper royal protocol; in some events, she even corrects her brothers on the side. She first appeared in public on the balcony of the Buckingham Palace which had secret rooms,  for Trooping the Colour on June 11th, 2016. She then went on the royal tour of Canada with her parents and older brother, George, in September 2016 and the diplomatic tour of Poland and Germany in July 2017. Charlotte and George spent their first Sandringham Christmas Day at the St. Mary Magdalene Service in December 2019.

Princess Charlotte attended a memorial service honoring her late grandfather, Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, with her parents and older brother in March 2022. Charlotte and her siblings participated in the Trooping the Color carriage parade for the first time in June 2022 as part of her great-Platinum grandmother's Jubilee commemoration weekend. Recently, Princess Charlotte and Prince George and their parents attended their grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II's state burial in September 2022.

Anmer Hall, a country house built in the 18th century on the Queen's Sandringham Estate, was given to the newlyweds William and Kate by the Queen after their 2011 wedding. From 2015 until 2017, it was the city residence of Prince William, Kate, Prince George, and Princess Charlotte. Now it serves as their country retreat. Prince William has stated that he and Kate Middleton now view their new home in Scotland as their "true home," amid their current residence in London.

Princess Charlotte resides at the 10-bedroom country manor, of course. They gave the Georgian mansion a makeover before the new owners moved in, with Ben Pentreath helping to redesign the home's interior design and build a conservatory for $1.7 million. The rural residence has also been a popular backdrop for various picture shoots. For the 2018 Christmas card, Kate Middleton took a family image of the royal family, which included Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis. The family shared a photo of Princess Charlotte showing off her room in Anmer Hall in 2015. A green and yellow striped chair was displayed, along with cream-colored walls and flooring.

Princess Charlotte Attends An Expensive Elite Private School

George, Charlotte, and Louis, the children of the British royal family, were rumored to have enrolled at Lambrook, an elite private school in the Windsor area, in September 2022. They entered the school with their children and were met by Jonathan Perry, the principal. This highly regarded private institution welcomes young men and women between the ages of three and thirteen.

The overall cost for Prince Louis' education is $15,000, or $5,000 each term. Until he enters his third year, when the costs will increase, this will remain the same. The cost of Princess Charlotte's education will be $22,132 each year. Her third and fourth-grade years are considered 'lower school' and cost $7,379 per semester.

Prince George will cost the Cambridges the most to educate, at a whopping $24,000 for grades five through eight. The family has also uprooted to a new home, Adelaide Cottage, conveniently located close to the kids' new school.

The Massive Jewelry Collection

There have been rumors that William will give one of Princess Diana's most treasured possessions to Princess Charlotte. The future Prince and Princess of Wales' 7-year-old daughter will be allowed to choose whatever piece of royal jewelry she wants. As the sole daughter of the heir apparent following the September 8th death of Queen Elizabeth II, she has received a great deal of attention.

Prince William has requested that Diana's brother, Charles, 9th Earl Spencer, give Princess Charlotte the tiara she wore on her wedding day in 1981. Charlotte is also in line to receive the Queen's favorite piece of jewelry, the Vladimir Tiara and the Spencer Tiara.

After being restored in the early 1900s, the crown's current market value is close to $19 million. The tiara's emeralds were formerly owned by Queen Mary's mother, the Duchess of Cambridge, Mary Adelaide.
