Britain's Princess Charlotte marked her fifth birthday on Saturday with the release of photographs showing her delivering homemade care packages to those in need during the coronavirus crisis near her family home in Norfolk.
The set of five photographs, taken by her mother Kate Middleton the Duchess of Cambridge, show the young royal taking food to the elderly and vulnerable who are-self isolating near Anmer Hall on the Queen's Sandringham estate in eastern England.
Charlotte was joined by her parents, Prince William and Kate, and brothers Prince George and Prince Louis to make the deliveries last week.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to share four new photographs of Princess Charlotte ahead of her fifth birthday tomorrow, Kensington Palace said in a statement on Friday.
The images were taken by the Duchess as the family helped to pack up and deliver food packages for isolated pensioners in the local area, the statement said.
Kate is a keen amateur photographer and has regularly released pictures shot of all her children, including Prince George, 6, and Prince Louis, 2.
