Princess Charlotte’s Sweet Royal Friendship Melts Hearts Online

Princess Charlotte’s close bond with her cousin Mia Tindall went viral on TikTok as fans praised the “lifetime friendship.”

Charlotte, who turns 10 in May, and Mia, 11, have been seen growing close during the walk to church on Christmas morning and at major royal events like the Platinum Jubilee.

And one fan picked up on their bond, editing together a series of their special moments together.

Why It Matters

The clip went viral after it was liked almost 30,000 times and viewed 633,000 times, having been posted with the message: “Who is the girl always by Princess Charlotte’s side?”

Cousins can also be useful friends for the senior royals as they are simultaneously inside the royal family, with an understanding of all its peculiarities, but not in line for a future as working royals, placing them outside internal family dramas.

What To Know

Mia Tindall was born in January 2014 and is the daughter of Zara and Mike Tindall, making her granddaughter to Princess Anne, King Charles III’s sister.

She was a great-granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II but does not have a royal title, dating back to Anne’s decision that royal titles would only make life harder for her children, Zara and Peter Phillips.

The TikTok video shows photos of Charlotte and Mia walking side by side at the royal family’s walk to church on Christmas morning in both 2023 and 2024.

Mia also sat directly behind Charlotte during the Platinum Pageant which closed out Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations on June 5, 2022.

The video suggests the royal cousins are best friends though it is important to note that Charlotte will also have friends at school who royal fans simply do not know about because they see each other out of the public eye.
