Kate Middleton and Prince William are shielding Princess Charlotte from the potential pitfalls of being the "spare" to her brother Prince George, heir to the throne.

Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis attended the 80th anniversary of VE Day military procession at Buckingham Palace.

Charlotte, the second child and only daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton, was born at 8:34 a.m. on May 2, 2015 at St Mary’s Hospital in Paddington, London, according to The Royal Family. She’s currently third in line to the British throne behind her father and brother, Prince George, who turns 12 in July.
