Princess Kate Middleton and Princess Lilibet may have a sweet connection that has nothing to do with royal duties. The two are showing an interest in the same creative hobby: photography.
The connection came into focus after Meghan Markle shared a series of family photographs celebrating Prince Harry's birthday. Among the candid moments was a picture of five-year-old Princess Lilibet using a Polaroid camera to take a photograph of her father.
The image offered a rare glimpse into Lilibet's personality and interests. Rather than simply appearing in the family photographs, the young princess was behind the camera, capturing her own moment with her dad.
Interestingly, photography is also a long-standing interest of Kate Middleton. The Princess of Wales has become well known for taking personal photographs of Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, particularly for their birthdays and other family occasions.
Kate has previously spoken about her love of photography and explained that she enjoys capturing genuine family moments rather than creating perfectly staged photographs. She has described herself as an amateur photographer who developed her skills over time.
That makes Lilibet's apparent interest especially interesting. At just five years old, she is already experimenting with a hobby that her aunt has embraced for years.
Kate's photography skills have also received praise from professional royal photographer Anwar Hussein. He previously said that the Princess of Wales has a good eye for photography and expressed his admiration for some of the pictures she has taken.
For royal watchers, the shared hobby provides a more personal point of connection between Kate and Lilibet. Photography is a simple way of preserving family memories, and both appear to appreciate the value of capturing natural moments.
While the picture does not establish how serious Lilibet's interest in photography may become, it does show that the young royal is already exploring creative activities at an early age.
