Smile for Mummy! Palace releases two new photos of Princess Charlotte

Kensington Palace has released two new portraits of the World's most adorable princess.  The images, posted on the Kensington Royal Instagram page, were taken by proud mummy (and keen photographer) Kate Midleton in early November at the family home in Norfolk.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted to be able to share two new photographs of Princess Charlotte. They were taken by The Duchess in early November at their home in Norfolk. The Duke and Duchess continue to receive warm messages about Princess Charlotte from all around the world and they hope that everyone enjoys these lovely photos as much as they do.

The blue-eyed little girl, who has grown a head of glossy brown hair since we last saw her, is pictured wearing a floral dress and baby pink cardigan and giggling at a teddy bear. Her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana of Cambridge was born on May 2, making her seven months-old in the stunning new portraits.

Kate Middleton has shared a number of personal photographs with the public in recent months, carrying on something of a family tradition: the first official family snap of Prince George was also taken by a family member, grandad Michael Middleton.
