One of the youngest attendees at the late monarch’s state funeral, held on Monday at Westminster Abbey, was Princess Charlotte.
And the seven-year-old showed off her impeccable manners and keen eye despite her young age.

The young royal joined her mother, the Princess of Wales, the Duchess of Sussex, Queen Consort Camilla, and her great-aunt Sophie, Countess of Wessex after Queen Elizabeth II’s moving funeral service.
The senior members of the royal family curtsied together as the Queen’s coffin left the Gothic church and started its procession to Wellington Arch.
Little Charlotte glanced at Sophie and then mimicked her curtsy as Her Majesty’s coffin passed them.
Princess Charlotte has been observed imitating family members previously. Many royal fans were quick to notice Charlotte’s cute imitation of her mother’s distinctive hair flip.

Photographers caught a great shot of Charlotte flicking her blonde hair gently behind her ears in between the two funeral services, much like Princess Kate does with her long, luscious brunette locks.
2,000 people attended the poignant state funeral for the Queen, including Princess Charlotte. The royal family came together in mourning to pay tribute to the late monarch, who ruled for an impressive 70 years.
George and Charlotte were joined by other royal children Mia Tindall, daughter of Zara and Mike Tindall, and Savannah and Isla Phillips, daughters of Peter Phillips, at the committal service in the afternoon at Windsor Castle’s St. George’s Chapel.

After the service, a private burial service was held at 7:30 p.m. so that the royal family could grieve privately and say their final farewells. After that, the Queen was buried in Windsor’s King George VI memorial chapel.
When Prince Philip’s remains are transferred from the Royal Vault of St. George’s Chapel to the King George VI Memorial Chapel, she will be poignantly reunited with her late husband.
