HasPrincess Charlottemade her nursery school stage debut?
The 3-year-old royal’s pre-school held their annual nativity play on Thursday afternoon, according to the Willcocks Nursery School website. It’s unclear if Charlotte took part in the tradition or was there to watch, but it’s the first opportunity she would have had sinceenrolling in the school in January.
If the little princess had a role to play, she would be following in her royal family members’ footsteps. Last year,Prince Williamshared that Charlotte’s big brother, 5-year-oldPrince George,took part in his school’s Christmas nativity play– but didn’t snag a role as one of the three kings despite his spot in the line of succession to the throne.
“I went to my boy’s nativity play. It was funny,” William said. “He was a sheep.”
