PRINCESS Charlotte issued a cheeky remark to royal snappers as she stole the show for the second time today at Prince Louis’ christening.

The three-year-old was walking hand-in-hand with her dad Prince William after the service at the Royal Chapel at St James's Palace told waiting photographers: “You're not coming.”

She kept her eye on the press pack as she and the rest of the family headed off for a private afternoon tea at Clarence House.

There they would be joined by the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex along with other guests.

Guests were enjoyed slices of fruit cake from a tier of William and Kate's eight-tier wedding cake at the swanky do.

Earlier Charlotte stole hearts around the world with her impeccable manners at the christening of baby brother Prince Louis.

The three-year-old was seen confidently shaking hands with the Archbishop of Canterbury and The Dean of The Chapel Royal, The Right Reverend and Right Honourable the Lord Chartres before heading inside for the ceremony.

Prince William could then be heard telling Charlotte: “Well done”.

Later as she left the ceremony, the confident young Royal showed off her sunny nature as she gave a cheery wave to crowds gathered outside the chapel at St James’ Palace, carrying the large Order of Service under her arm.

Princess Charlotte has regularly outshone her older brother George with her confidence and love of the public.

While George, four, is often seen shying away from the cheering crowds, Charlotte is seen taking it all in her stride, delighting onlookers with her natural charm.

And it’s not the first time that the little Princess has left hearts bursting with affection.

At just 16 months old, she charmed the world by waving to crowds in Canada.

And last year, she proved she was ever the professional when she greeted well-wishers during a tour of Germany and Poland, accepting bouquets and even performing her first curtsy.

Her adorable nature was also fully on display when she and Prince George arrived at the Lindo wing in April to meet the newest little Cambridge.

Princess Charlotte was seen waving to crowds the moment she stepped out of the car, and made the most of her moment in the spotlight by turning back on the hospital steps for one final wave before heading to meet her baby brother.

Prince Louis’ birth also made Charlotte the first female Royal to retain her claim as third in line to the throne regardless of who was born after her.
