Kate Middleton and Princess Charlotte ‘secret battle’ spotted by fans in clip

Royal fans believe they have noticed a subtle “secret battle” between Kate Middleton and her daughter, Princess Charlotte, over how the young princess wears her hair. Princess Charlotte, nine, often appears in public with her parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton, and fans recently spotted a series of endearing moments between mother and daughter.

In a video captured during last month’s Trooping the Colour, Kate, the Princess of Wales, is seen repeatedly adjusting Charlotte’s long hair over her shoulder. Charlotte appeared to prefer her hair hanging in front, while Kate was gently pushing it back behind her shoulders. This small, but noticeable interaction sparked comments among Royal watchers online.

One social media user commented: “Charlotte trying to wear her hair in front.” This observation was followed by clips showing the playful “tussle” as Kate continued to adjust Charlotte’s hair. Many fans found the interaction relatable and shared similar experiences with their own mothers. One user wrote, “This is literally me all the time and my mom just puts it back,” while another added, “My mom says it’s cause she wants to see more of my beautiful face.”

The hair adjustments led some to speculate whether this was a royal protocol or simply a motherly preference. One fan suggested, “Let’s be honest… mothers do this regardless of being royal or not. They prefer it a certain way, they gonna make you do it.”

Despite such playful moments, it’s reported that Prince William and Kate maintain a disciplined yet nurturing environment for their children, Prince George, 11, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, 6. The couple, who reside at Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, are known for setting clear household rules. A notable rule, reportedly enforced strictly in their home, is that there is to be no shouting. When disciplining their children, Kate and William prefer a calm approach, opting for a ‘sofa chat’ rather than punitive measures like sending the children to their rooms. This involves removing the child from the situation and having a calm discussion about their behavior, outlining the consequences, and avoiding any form of shouting.

These insights into the Royal family’s domestic life show a blend of traditional discipline and modern parenting, underscoring the balance the couple strives to maintain between their public duties and private family life. The playful exchanges between Kate and Charlotte, such as the hair adjustments, add a human touch to their royal image, showing that even in royal households, everyday parent-child dynamics are alive and well.
