Princess Charlotte's reaction at Princess Kate's royal carol service has fans saying the same thing
Princess Kate's Christmas carol service, Royal Carols: Together at Christmas aired on ITV (on Britbox internationally) on Christmas Eve to positive reactions from royal fans online.
The event marked a return to the spotlight and her familiar duties for the Princess of Wales after her difficult year with her health, and Prince William and their three children were right by her side for it all.
Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, nine, and Prince Louis, six, were in attendance with their parents, and it turns out that the ever gentle and supportive Princess Charlotte was the one who stole the show.
The nine-year-old was seen in the special sweetly helping her brothers light their candles and leading the way for her younger brother, and it was her reaction to a performance during the service that caught the eye of royal fans.
Charlotte was captured admiring the performers from The Royal Ballet as they danced, and fans couldn't get enough of her sweet reactions to seeing the routine.
