A FORMER royal aide has revealed how a major mishap occurred around the announcement for Princess Charlotte’s birth.
Jason Knauf, who worked for Prince William and Princess Kate, shared how he had accidentally lost the confidential details of the birth before it was due to be announced.
The former aide shared how he had written down the top secret information - which included Charlotte’s time of birth and weight - but he dropped it on the street.
He shared to 60 Minutes Australia: "We weren't going to announce it for another couple of hours. And I had this piece of paper to go write this press release.
“I'm still out there with hundreds of journalists trying to have a game face, and then I couldn't find the piece of paper, and I think I had dropped it somewhere on the street.
“But somewhere on that street the entire time was a piece of paper that said there had been a little princess born, what time and how much she weighed. It was one of those things, like, heart in mouth until we got to the announcement, and I got through it."
When he was questioned as to whether he ever found the slip, he shared: "No, I never found it and neither did any of the media though. So that's all that really mattered."
Princess Kate and Prince William's second child, Princess Charlotte was born on May 2, 2015 at 8.34am at St Mary's Hospital.
She was brought into the world in the infamous Lindo Wing, and weighed 8lbs 3oz.
Princess Charlotte has won the hearts of royal fans around the globe thanks to her adorable personality and stylish looks.
The sassy and lovable youngster - now aged nine - may be the Prince and Princess of Wales’ only daughter, but she certainly holds her own around brothers.
From nailing her own little royal wave to delighting fans with her funny sayings, Princess Charlotte often steals the show.
Fans have also seen her grow into a sweet “mini-me” of mum, Kate Middleton.
Body language expert Judi James said the photo released for Princess Charlotte’s ninth birthday last year demonstrated her natural “leadership.”
Speaking to Fabulous, Judi said: “This is such a confident and grown-up look from Charlotte who has moved on from the childlike trait of standing straight and awkward in front of the camera and who has opted instead to strike a pose that looks assertive and relaxed, with a smile that is less of a fun grin and more of a signal of warmth and empathy.”
The body language professional added: “Her lean creates a series of body angles but the way she has chosen a high wall to lean her elbow on suggests a quiet desire to dominate and take the lead.
“The lifted arm also creates one pit-bare gesture that is another sign of confidence.”
KATE'S key rule for Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis is about kindness.
According to Royal Correspondent: "Based on observations of photographs of Princess Diana at the time, and the current Princess of Wales, they are both very affectionate with their children.
"Kate is often seen holding her children's hands or picking them up for cuddles when they were smaller.
"There are often lots of comforting gestures, such as a pat on the back or stroking their hair. When interacting with other children on her public engagements, Kate often crouches down to their level to engage with them – something that Diana would often do."
When she's at the family's home of Adelaide Cottage in Windsor, despite her royal status, insiders say Kate is just like any other "normal mum".
A friend explained that behind closed doors, the 43-year-old is "very chilled at home" but definitely not a pushover and will tell the kids off when needed.
They : "It's a normal, busy family home with kids running around and knocking things over. There's no airs and graces.
"She is doing that to help her children be more grounded and keep their reality in check. That's what really matters to her."
