Kate 'scolded' at Queen's funeral by top royal over Princess Charlotte's actions

Princess Charlotte reportedly showed bad manners during the Queen's funeral - bad enough, apparently, that Camilla had to step in. The young princess supposedly got into a spat with her older brother George which prompted the new Queen Consort to give the kids' mum, Kate Middleton, a 'harsh stare.'

Nine-year-old Prince George appeared to pinch his little sister during a procession at Welling Arch in Westminster. Charlotte, having felt this pinch, 'yelped out in pain,' MyLondon reports.

Apparently, some royals saw the funny side, with Meghan Markle tilting her head and smiling. But Camilla is rumoured to have taken a harsher attitude. Camilla is rumoured to have given the Princess of Wales the 'death stare' and told her to "take her [daughter]".

But Charlotte was also seen paying a personal tribute to her great-grandmother at the funeral. As part of her outfit, she had a small pin badge of a horseshoe - apparently in tribute to the late Queen's love of horses.

This isn't the first time the young Royals have been caught being cheeky in public, back in June when the nation celebrated our late sovereign’s Platinum Jubilee, the three Cambridge kids were waving to the crowds.

But just as Prince Louis, four, was really upping his energy, Charlotte, seven, put her hand over his and stopped him. After the slightest pause, the little Prince resumed and showed no sign of wanting to stop.

His big sister then pulled his arm down and gave him a little look as if to say, "That's enough of that for now!"

The Cambridge children also appeared on the Buckingham Palace balcony with the Queen and other senior royals to watch a spectacular six-minute flypast involving more than 70 aircraft. These included Apache helicopters, Typhoons, a Royal Navy Wildcat and the Red Arrows.

Louis was seen pulling a series of very entertaining faces and then putting his hands over his ears when the volume became just a little bit too loud. He also had an animated chat with his grandmother, who was celebrating 70 years on the throne.
