Princess Charlotte ‘asks for extravagant gift for Christmas but dad William isn’t keen’

She's following in the Queen's footsteps

| Updated:

Princess Charlotte has reportedly asked her mum and dad, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, for a pony for Christmas.

It’s been said that the four-year-old royal is following in her great-grandmother the Queen’s footsteps by being “obsessed with horses”.

So obsessed in fact, she apparently wants one of her own and has asked Santa to bring her a pony – something Prince William isn’t keen on.

A source told Closer magazine: “Charlotte takes after Queen Elizabeth and is obsessed with horses.

“She’s asked for a pony, but might have to wait until next year because William thinks she’s too young.

“[Prince] George is really into tennis and has asked for a new racket and a football table. They’ll both be receiving children’s cookery sets because they love making a mess in the kitchen!”

It was recently suggested the couple may announce a fourth pregnancy “fairly soon” after a royal expert noticed a pattern with their previous announcements.

Katharine Graves, author of The Hypnobirthing Book, told the Express: “The Duchess of Cambridge has timed her pregnancies with classic spaces.

“Two years between George and Charlotte and three years between Charlotte and Louis. On that basis, we could expect a fourth little Cambridge to be on the way fairly soon.

“When you live in a goldfish bowl as the royal children do, it must be thoroughly healthy to have siblings to grow up with.”

Meanwhile, Kate recently revealed her youngest Louis is starting to talk.

Speaking about Louis during a recent royal engagement, Kate told a little boy: “You remind me of my little Louis, he keeps saying, ‘Me, me, me.’

“And he wants to come everywhere with me!”
