The young royal, who has become known and loved for her cheekiness, sassiness and adorable royal waves to the press and public, will today be celebrating her birthday at home in Anmer Hall with her family.
To mark the occasion of her fifth birthday, her parents, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, have released new images of the youngster.
Snapped by keen amateur photographer Kate recently near their home in Norfolk, the photos show Charlotte lending a helping hand in the local neighbourhood.
The new photos were taken when Prince William, Kate and the kids helped pack up and deliver homemade pasta and food packages for the vulnerable and isolated pensioners living in their local area in Norfolk.
The photos, published by Kensington Palace on social media, have received thousands of comments from well wishers.
So, as Princess Charlotte celebrates turning the grand old age of five, we look back at her life in pictures so far, from her first introduction to the public outside the Lindo Wing in London, to her first royal tour, day of school and the moment she proved she mastered her Great Grandmother’s iconic royal wave.

Princess Charlotte of Cambridge was born on the May 2 2015 in the Lindo Wing at St Mary’s Hospital in London.
The second child of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, she joined her big brother Prince George in one of the most famous families in the world and became fourth in line to the British throne.
Despite rumours that she may be named Alice, Kate and William chose the moniker Charlotte for their little girl, which just so happens to be the middle name of her aunt – Kate’s sister – Pippa Middleton.
She is also named in honour of two very important women in Prince William’s life – his grandmother the Queen and his late mother, Princess Diana.
Princess Charlotte’s full name is Charlotte Elizabeth Diana of Cambridge.
There hasn’t been a member of the royal family called Charlotte in over two hundred years, so this little Princess was destined to make her mark and carve her own path.
At the tender age of five, Princess Charlotte has already completed her fair share of royal duties and appearances, joining her parents on her first ever royal tour before she was 18 months old.
Charlotte also joined her family on The Duke and Duchess’s official visit to Poland and Germany in July 2017.
Before joining her big brother Prince George at Thomas’s Battersea school in London in September last year, Princess Charlotte attended Willcocks Nursery School in London.
The feisty character was reportedly known as the ‘warrior princess’ at nursery thanks to her confidence.
In March 2017, Kate revealed that Princess Charlotte was ‘the one in charge’ in their family and she was ‘very chatty and likes doing play dates with George.’
According to royal expert and author Katie Nicholl, Charlotte loves playing outside and exploring: ‘She loves climbing trees and she’s very much an adventurer, she was quite known for her feisty personality.’
Happy Birthday Charlotte!
