Princess Charlotte showcased her charming demeanor as she met with sporting VIPs during her second visit to the Commonwealth Games alongside the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. The seven-year-old attended a program supporting young athletes in Birmingham, where she proudly shared that her favorite sport is gymnastics.
&nbsp;
Accompanied by her parents, Kate Middleton and Prince William, Charlotte greeted her hosts and followed their lead in meeting athletes. Kate, dressed in a stunning white Alexander McQueen trouser suit valued at £1,945, mentioned, &#8220;Charlotte spends most of her time upside-down, doing handstands and cartwheels.&#8221;
&nbsp;
Dressed in a £39 Rachel Riley dress, Princess Charlotte seemed delighted to attend this event, marking her first solo outing with her parents without her brothers, Prince George, eight, and Prince Louis, four. The little royal is becoming quite the sports enthusiast, having recently joined her father in a video message wishing the Lionesses good luck ahead of the Euro 2022 final.
