Kate Middleton recently shared some personal photos of her cute and adorable 6-month-old daughter Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana. Unfortunately, these photos that are personally taken by the Duchess using her Canon EOS 5D Mark II, allegedly angered Queen Elizabeth II as Kate once again broke a royal protocol.
Since the royals are used to share stuffy, staged images captured by professional photographers, Queen Elizabeth II is reportedly overly disgusted with Kate Middleton's middleclass influence and continuous disobedience of the royal protocol as she shared Charlotte's photos to the public. While the Duchess' personally-taken images of her family conveyed humility, the Queen was displeased as she kept on revolutionizing the royal family, Celeb Dirty Laundry claimed.
Kate Middleton, however, just wanted to share the photos as a sign of appreciation to their fans. So, along with husband Prince William, the royal couple decided to release the photos of their daughter with a message of gratitude.
"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 Kensington Palace statement read. "The Duke and Duchess are very grateful for the support they have received when it comes to their children and wanted to share these very charming pictures taken by the duchess. It is something they intend to continue to do."
Despite Queen Elizabeth II's constant state of disgust, Kate Middleton seemed to have courageously stood her ground in incorporating middleclass influences and values in her children's lives and family.
Meanwhile, Princess Charlotte's photos, which appeared to have been taken by a professional royal shutterbug, definitely showed an adorable princess that her father described as a "little joy." While she is most definitely her mom's daughter, her big and twinkling blue eyes are inherited from her father and her chubby cheeks and infectious smile look just like big brother Prince George's, who is already two-years-old.
"She's been a little joy from heaven," Prince William said of his daughter. "But at the same time, it's a lot more responsibility, looking after two little ones, especially when George is around. He's a little monkey."
Princess Charlotte's cute images were taken at Anmer Hall, Kate Middleton and Prince William's 10-bedroom Norfolk mansion in early November. According to Daily Mail, the royal couple is currently based there with their family while the Duke works as a pilot for the East Anglia Air Ambulance.
Moreover, in order to capture the latest snaps of Princess Charlotte, who is the fourth in line to the royal throne, Kate Middleton reportedly followed the basic rules of photography to produce stunning images. The 33-year-old Duchess first propped Charlotte against a plush, gingham-printed armchair. Then, she used the basic rules of composition to focus on the little one, blurring out a sliver of the backdrop. She also captured a cute candid moment between her blue-eyed, brunette daughter and a stuffed animal, Us Weekly noted.
