This is the sweet moment Princess Charlotte showed off her good manners as she shared a polite handshake with clergy at the Princess of Wales’ annual carol concert held at Westminster Abbey last night.
The eight-year-old royal was on her best behaviour as she offered a sweet smile whilst greeting members of the church at the Abbey’s Lady Chapel.
Charlotte looked the double of her smart mother as she wore a £180 double-breasted burgundy wool coat from Trotters.
Upon entering the concert, the middle child of the Prince and Princess of Wales, posted letters to children less fortunate than herself alongside his older siblings, Prince Louis, 5, and Prince George 10.
The trio stood proudly next to their parents – as well as other senior royals – as they held candles and sung Christmas songs in the festive hall filled with 1,500 people.

The Together At Christmas service – supported by the Royal Foundation – was this year held in honour of those who work to support babies, young children and families across the UK.
Linked to Kate’s Shaping Us campaign, the service showcased ‘the hope of new life and why it is so important to build supportive, nurturing worlds around children and the adults in their lives’.
While it was filmed on December 8, the full concert was aired to the public last night on ITV.
Elsewhere capturing attention, adorable Prince Louis stole the heart of the nation last night.
Fans went wild as an adorable clip showed the young royal’s eyes light up as actor Jim Broadbent, 74, read The Father Christmas Letters from J.R.R. Tolkien.
The five-year-old, said to have ‘Christmas magic in his eyes’, was seen nudging his mother Kate, whispering ‘mama’ and pointing at the award-winning star as he read to the audience.

Prince Louis had previously been too young to attend his mother’s annual Christmas concert but his debut did not disappoint.
One wrote on social media: ‘Look how excited Prince Louis was to see Jim Broadbent it was lovely.’
Another said: ‘My favourite part of the entire service was Prince Louis adorable reactions throughout. He’s so cute.’
A third added: ‘He’s a gorgeous 5 year old with an enchanted smile for Christmas.’
At the end of Broadbent’s reading, Prince William and Prince George also exchanged a smile as festive cheer spread across the chapel.
