The Princess is expected to celebrate her special day privately with her family in Windsor, reported ABC News.
Over the years, Princess Charlotte has made more public appearances alongside her parents and brothers, Prince George, 10, and Louis, 6. In 2022, she attended some major royal events, including her first official engagement at Cardiff Castle during Queen Elizabeth’s Platinum Jubilee celebration. She also participated in the queen’s funeral, wearing a special horseshoe brooch gifted by the late Queen Elizabeth.
Last year, Princess Charlotte, along with her brothers, attended the coronation of their grandfather, King Charles III, at Westminster Abbey. Her most recent public appearance was during the traditional Christmas Day service at St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham last December.
Recently, the royal family has maintained a low profile, with Kate Middleton and Prince William taking time off from their public duties. The Princess of Wales’ health took a turn as she underwent abdominal surgery in January and later revealed that she was diagnosed with cancer in March.
