Princess Charlotte praised for poise and bravery after 'painful' balcony head bump with little brother Prince Louis

Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis shared a typical sibling moment when they bumped heads on the Buckingham Palace balcony during the Trooping the Colour celebrations. 

• Princess Charlotte smiled through the pain after banging heads with Prince Louis on the Buckingham Palace balcony. 
• Mum Kate Middleton was on hand to provide comfort, giving little Prince Louis's head a rub. 
• This royal news comes after it was revealed that Princess Charlotte's daisy dress from Prince William's Father's Day photo is still available to buy.

Princess Charlotte, eight, has previously been seen 'in charge' at royal events, proving that she is becoming a 'standout star'.

And as she joined members of the Royal Family alongside King Charles and Queen Camilla on the balcony of Buckingham Palace to watch the traditional flypast, Charlotte demonstrated just how professional she can be when it comes to being a royal.

During the air display, Princess Charlotte leaned in close to her brother Prince Louis, appearing to whisper something to him. But Prince Louis was so enthusiastic that in the heat of the moment, he spun around to speak to his parents at the same time, bumping heads with his older sister. 

The Wales youngster did her best to keep her composure following the collision - staying calm and smiling for the crowds. But eventually she was unable to resist the normal trauma response and discreetly rubbed the side of her head to help ease the pain.

Her delayed reaction has been praised by fans on TikTok. One fan wrote, "That hurt, see how she rubs her head? poor Charlotte.” 

Another fan put, "She's so mature, at her age I would be throwing tantrum.”

And a third supporter added, "Not sure what’s funnier Lous not even noticing or Charlotte trying not to act like it hurt."

It appeared to be Princess Charlotte's unlucky day, as her grandpa King Charles seemed to accidentally elbow her as the royals appeared on the balcony. 

And one fan pointed out, "Poor thing. First Charles elbows her and then this, and not one tear."
