The Prince and Princess of Wales’s children always steal the show whenever they join their parents at their public engagements.
And one cheeky gesture from Princess Charlotte once had the crowds in hysterics.
Back in 2019, the then Duke and Duchess of Cambridge competed in the King Cup’s sailing regatta in Cowes on the Isle of Wight.
Prince George, then six, and Princess Charlotte, four, watched their parents in action from a nearby boat with their maternal grandparents, Carole and Michael Middleton.
The young royals were later reunited with Prince William and Kate and little Charlotte was spotted poking her tongue out as they made their way to the trophy presentation. Watch the video above.

The mother-daughter duo then proceeded to pull a series of funny faces at Michael.
