Princess Charlotte is being taught how to be a royal by a “perfect role model” who has taken the nine-year-old under her wing, a palace insider has claimed.
Charlotte’s “princess training” is being led by Princess Anne, who is coaching the young royal on some of the difficult tasks that she will face as she grows older and becomes a front-line member of the Royal Family.
The insider also explained some recent faux pas that the nine-year-old would do well to avoid.
“Anne's also inadvertently giving her some juicy gossip on the family by going through some of the worst faux pas a royal can make, from her uncle partying in Nazi uniforms to Beatrice's dreadful fascinator at her parents' wedding,” a palace insider told Woman’s Day.

“They're talking ALL the time about everything and anything, “ the royal source explained to the Australian publication. They went on: “Women’s football, sailing, horses, ballet, fashion, manners... Essentially she's foolproofing Charlotte into becoming the perfect princess and standby queen.”
The source said that William and Kate “couldn't imagine a better role model than Anne, who is renowned for her work ethic and impregnable support for the King”.
Harkening back to the Princess Royal’s support to Kate when she first joined the family, Charlotte’s mother hopes that she will give her daughter the same “candid tough love” that she received all those years ago.
