Duchess Catherine previously confirmed that pink is Princess Charlotte’s colour of choice during a royal outing in 2017.

The Duchess of Cambridge, who was pregnant with Prince Louis at the time, spoke to six year-old Nevah Richardson-Natiko who presented her with some flowers. Nevah later told reporters that the royal mum had asked her what is her favourite colour saying: “I said it was pink and she said that’s Charlotte’s favourite colour, too.”

Judging by the numerous time she’s matched with her mum in the colour, we’re not surprised that the little princess is a fan of pink!
