英语课
For any parents with two children under two, this could have been a difficult moment, especially when you know that the world is watching. This is the first time that we've seen Duck and Duchess out in public with their two children. Prince George at times a little distracted, but with encouragement from dad, he kept on walking. Eventually, we now got glimpse at Princess Charlotte bound in her c*, dressed in the first of what will, no doubt, be many elaborate gowns to come.
Heading into the same church on the Sandringham estate, where the royal family go for Christmas, the Queen, Prince Philip, Prince Charles, Camille and the Middletons all here to share the moments. Some in the crowds started arriving as early as Saturday night to get the best spots.
-Such is the interest in the Duck and Duchess of Cambridge. It's not suprising to see that hundreds of people have turned out for the christening here in Norfolk. The fact that the area in front of the church has been open to public is a way of William and Kate saying thank you to the public for all of their support since their daughter was born.
But also a reflection on how important Norfolk has become as a family home.
-They've enough grands where they can walk, and walk as a family and do things with the invasion of the public.
The private 45-minute service reflected on family tradition. Prince William's mother Princess Diana was christened here. And Princess Charlotte was baptised by the Archbishop of Canterbury just in will-be, using the lily font, a feature of royal christening since 1841. But the choice of godparents has surprised some, no royals or siblings 1. William and Kate instead opting 2 for friends, Sophie Carter, James Meed, Thomas van P*, along with Kate's cousin, Ed Middleton, William's first cousin, Laura Fellows, who was Princess Diana's niece.
With the service over, a protective Prince George checked out upon his little sister. He needn't have worried with no sign of any tears from Princess Charlotte. As they walked back to Sandringham House for a cup of tea and some christening cake after a big day for the latest member of the family.
W* Meels, Sky News, in Norflok.
