The Queen has met her new great-granddaughter Princess Charlotte for the first time at Kensington Palace.
The princess, who is fourth in line to the throne, was born on Saturday at London’s St Mary’s Hospital, weighing 8lbs 3oz (3.7kg).
The meeting was more historic than usual for a royal baby.
The meeting was the first time a serving sovereign had met a great-granddaughter born in direct succession on the male line since Queen Victoria met George VI’s sister Princess Mary, who was born 118 years ago in 1897.
Also, Princess Charlotte has quite a birth certificate.
