It cannot be denied that the British royal family is one of the most well-known families grabbing the spotlight currently. 2022 has been a significant year for them, starting with the commemoration of Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee and later in September, the unfortunate news of her passing.
The queen’s grandsons, William, the Prince of Wales, and Prince Harry are frequently featured in the news, particularly regarding their families. As the next in line for the throne, William and his family, especially his three children with his wife Catherine, Princess of Wales, are very popular with the public: Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 8, and Prince Louis, 5.
Following William, his three children are next in line for the throne, generating excitement worldwide as people anticipate watching the young royals mature. Even though George is the older sibling and has begun attending events with his parents, Charlotte – the second child and lone daughter of the Prince and Princess of Wales – is close to his age. In 2022, she celebrated her 7th birthday, and during the year before that, the young princess started to evolve from a little child into a charming young girl. As each year goes by, Charlotte’s personality becomes more apparent.
Indeed, she is turning out to be the most impudent member of the royal family. In addition to her fiery personality, Charlotte also shares a remarkable likeness with different relatives of hers. This involves her father William, her grandmother Princess Diana, and also her deceased great-grandmother, Elizabeth. Fans have been comparing her to each family member since she was a baby.

Prince William, who holds the title of Duke of Cambridge, is married to Catherine.
Born on May 2, 2015, at St Mary’s Hospital in London, Princess Charlotte made an instant impact in England as one of the children of William, Prince of Wales and Catherine, Princess of Wales. Charlotte is the middle child of the family, as she has an older brother, Prince George, and a younger brother, Prince Louis. She is also William and Kate’s only daughter and is currently third in the line of succession to the throne, following her father and her older brother.
Following Charlotte’s birth, several landmarks were illuminated pink to honor her arrival, including the London Eye and Tower Bridge. There were also salutes at Hyde Park and the Tower of London. Just a few days later, it was announced that Charlotte’s full name was Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, which honored both Diana and the previous reigning monarch and her late great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.
As Charlotte gets older, fans continue to point out the similarities she shares with family members, especially her grandmother and great-grandmother — who she’s both named after — but also her father! In fact, a photo posted by the Prince and Princess of Wales on the day before Charlotte’s 7th birthday sparked many fans to say she’s William’s mini-me.
However, the young princess’ remarkable resemblance to her grandmother, who died in a tragic car accident in Paris in 1997, has been widely discussed by royal fans. Back in 2018, a fan account on Instagram posted side-by-side photographs of Charlotte and Diana when she was a little girl, and noted their uncanny resemblance. “Omg double of her nana … what a great young lady she will turn out to be with looks as beautiful as her angel nana,” one Instagram user commented.
