Kensington Palace had captioned the post: “The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to share three new photographs of Princess Charlotte ahead of her fourth birthday tomorrow.

“The photographs were taken in April by The Duchess at Kensington Palace and at their home in Norfolk.”

Charlotte is the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s second child.

The couple are also parents to Prince George, five, and Prince Louis, who turned one on April 23.
