Kensington Palace has released new photos of 6-month-old Princess Charlotte.

The palace said in a tweet that the photos were taken by Charlotte’s mother, the Duchess of Cambridge, at their family home, Anmer Hall, in Norfolk in early November.

Charlotte was last seen in public at her christening on July 5 with her parents, William and Kate, andolder brother Prince George.

In the photos released on Sunday, the young princess is seen sitting up and even laughing as she reaches for a teddy bear.

Within an hour, the new photos had received thousands of likes and retweets on Twitter.

Previous photos taken by the duchess showed a two-week-old Charlotte in the arms of her older brother.

Charlotte is Will and Kate’s youngest child and only daughter, making her fourth in line to succeed her great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.
