Princess Charlotte 'knows the rules' and keeps Princes George and Louis in check
Princess Charlotte 'rules the roost' and keeps brothers Prince George and Prince Louis in check, a parenting expert has claimed.
Jo Frost, of TV's Supernanny, says the Prince and Princess of Wales' middle child, eight, "knows how to keep everyone in good stead" in the household, including her siblings, five and 10.
Prince William, Princess Kate and their three children live at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor - having moved from Kensington Palace in London just weeks before the Queen passed away in September 2022.
The couple have previously revealed they are raising their kids with a deep awareness of royal protocol, and that there is a time and place for everything. As such, Ms Frost has observed that Charlotte "knows the rules" and often reminds her brothers of what to do and when.
However, she added that all three Wales children are treated equally, something "relatable to any family" despite the fact George is the future king. Ms Frost said there is clear evidence of "responsible parenting" on their part, while also upholding the idea that the crown and monarchy "takes a team".

She knows how to keep everyone in good stead. There are moments when I've watched George and he's looked over at his sister, and he's probably annoyed with her one minute and then grateful that she's there being able to remind him of things, when he's taking it all in as well."
She went on to say what can be observed is "awareness" and that the two older kids, particularly George, "are being informed". The second in line is "learning little bits here and there" and has the perfect role models in the current King Charles and his dad William.
Ms Frost said: "They're raised with an understanding of royal procedures and protocols. And they're raised to understand, there's a time and a place... They have a lovely balance of that and behind closed doors, no doubt they're playing games and winding each other up as siblings do, teasing each other, having fun and baking cookies and being out in nature."
She added William and Kate would never entertain the concept of 'heir and spare', something their children's uncle Prince Harry claimed he suffered through growing up in his bombshell memoir Spare.

He put out the impassioned message ahead of carrying out visits to recognise the human suffering caused by conflict in the Middle East and the global rise in antisemitism.
The Israeli Defence Forces then responded saying the fighting will stop once all hostages have been freed and the Hamas "terror army" is "dismantled". He visited the British Red Cross in London earlier, where he chatted to workers providing humanitarian assistance to support the innocents affected by the horrific war between Israel and Hamas.
Meanwhile, King Charles's crown logo has now officially replaced the one used by his mother, Queen Elizabeth II's favoured symbol, on government websites. While the new designs are very similar, the change marks the change of Monarch. Yesterday, Prince Andrew's birthday was ignored by the Royal Family as no public birthday messages were made.
