Meanwhile, Ms Garibaldi spoke of how “it was so adorable seeing them out and about”. Whilst Ms Mulshine revealed her favourite public appearance by Prince George and Princess Charlotte. 

She stated: "I think the David Attenborough video they did was a highlight". Ms Mulshine continued: "I would love them to do more things like that."

Why will Prince George and Princess Charlotte be attending more royal engagements in 2021?

The news came as a royal source reportedly told Us Weekly: "William and Kate have loved watching Prince George and Princess Charlotte grow and develop over the last year”.

The insider is thought to have suggested that the Duke and Duchess, “hope to be able to take the kids with them on royal engagements” next year, as long as they don’t “interfere” with their Thomas’s Battersea school schedule.

The young Cambridges attended a special pantomime performance with their parents earlier this month. Their appearance delighted royal fans, many of whom noticed a similarity between young Prince Louis and his grandfather Michael Middleton

The family of five are thought to have spent Christmas at their Norfolk family home, Anmer Hall. This came after new restrictions placed Berkshire, where the Duchess’ parents Michael and Carole Middleton reside, in Tier 4

It was believed that the Cambridges had previously been planning to celebrate Christmas with the Middletons.

Now we will have to wait and see if Prince George and Princess Charlotte will be attending more royal engagements in 2021.
