Princess Charlotte Steals the Show at King Charles’ Coronation Concert
Princess Charlotte, the daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton, impressed onlookers as she gracefully performed her first courtesy to the newly crowned King Charles.
The heartwarming moment occurred during a celebration of Prince William's father's lifetime of service, which included his work with the Prince's Trust.
As the camera panned across the audience, Princess Charlotte could be seen sitting alongside her mother, Kate, with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak seated behind them.
The young princess's impeccable manners and respect for royal protocol were evident when she courteously acknowledged her grandfather's presence.
With her mother, Kate, leading by example, Princess Charlotte followed suit and offered a sweet little courtesy to the King as he made his way to his seat.
This display of respect left well-wishers in awe, with one observer describing Princess Charlotte's manners as outstanding.
Meanwhile, Prince George, Charlotte's older brother, also showed his respect by taking a few steps back and bowing formally.
The siblings' genuine admiration for their grandfather was apparent as he slowly passed them during the event.
During the concert, Princess Charlotte captured the attention of viewers once again, this time with a surprising dance move.
As her father delivered his speech, she tipped her head to one side, smiled, and lifted her arm towards her head, appearing to perform a dab.
Dabbing is a popular dance move where a person leans forward into the bent crook of a slanted arm while raising the opposite arm out straight.
The unexpected gesture from the young princess brought smiles to the faces of all those watching.
The King himself couldn't help but chuckle when Miss Piggy, a beloved Muppet character, referred to host Hugh Bonneville as a real lord, mistaking him for his character in “Downton Abbey.”
The humor continued as Miss Piggy playfully called the King “King Charles E. Worsley” and jokingly mentioned her expectation of seeing Kermit the Frog in the royal box.
Even Princess Charlotte and Prince George were seen smiling and laughing along with their father and the rest of the audience.
Adding to the excitement, Princess Charlotte was caught on camera singing along to Katy Perry's hit song, “Eye of the Tiger.”
The young royal's enthusiasm for the performance was evident as she swayed to the music.
Her adorable cream-colored dress, adorned with a detailed black collar and bow, garnered much attention from royal fans.
The dress, an ivory scallop collar chiffon dress by Self Portrait, retails at £245, but is currently on sale for £171.
Later in the evening, Princess Charlotte attempted to catch her brother's attention and pointed towards their father as he took the stage to deliver his speech.
Prince William's heartfelt words included a poignant reference to his late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.
The speech was followed by a rendition of the National Anthem, which was sung by all in attendance, including Prince George.
Prior to Prince William's speech, a pianist named Lucy, who is supported by Queen Camilla's patronage, the Amber Trust, captivated the audience with a performance of Bach's Prelude in C Major.
The Amber Trust provides opportunities for blind and partially sighted individuals, and Lucy, who also has severe autism, showcased her remarkable talent during Sunday's concert.
As the event came to a close, the crowd erupted in applause and cheers, and the King graciously waved to show his appreciation.
