Royals release photos of Princess Charlotte, Prince George
Britain's royals released on social media Saturday pictures of newborn Princess Charlotte with her big brother, Prince George.
Prince William's wife, Kate, took the pictures in mid-May, according to Kensington Palace, which posted the snapshots to its official Instagram and Twitter accounts.
Charlotte, the couple's second child after Prince George and fourth in line to the throne, was born in London on May 2.
The release of the pictures comes on the heels of Friday's announcement that Charlotte will be christened in a private ceremony next month.
The ceremony is set for July 5 at St. Mary Magdalene Church on Queen Elizabeth II's sprawling Sandringham estate in Norfolk, on England's eastern coast.
Charlotte's late grandmother, Princess Diana, was christened at the same church. Diana's family was closely tied to the royal family and she was born on the Sandringham estate in 1961.
The queen, her husband Philip, Prince Charles and Camilla are expected join Kate's family at the ceremony, along with the baby's godparents, who have not yet been announced.
Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, will conduct the ceremony.
William and Kate left London and traveled north shortly after the birth to their mansion in Sandringham, where they are expected to be based for the next few years.
