A royal first!

Over the weekend. Prince George and Princess Charlotte attended a very special event.

Princess Charlotte’s godmother, Sophie Carter got married, and it looked like a fabulous day.

The stunning Kate Middleton wore a blue dress and a flawless floral headpiece.

George and Charlotte acted as page boy and flower girl on the day.

There was one pretty big occurrence on the day of the wedding – a first for the royal family.

Pictures were taken on the day, showing Princess Charlotte in the arms of her godmother.

Eagle-eyed royal fans were quick to spot this, picking up on one thing specifically.

“In these two pictures we are seeing something that we have never seen – A Cambridge baby in the arms of someone other than William and Catherine. Princess Charlotte in the arms of her Godmother Sophie Carter Snuggs.”

It seems silly, but this is a major break in royal tradition for the Cambridges.

The images were tweeted by Twitter user Regal Fille, who was the first to spot the break in protocol.

Well lads, there’s a first time for everything!
