    Princess Charlotte has already got this big sister thing down (just like her royal wave). The 3-year-old princess has reportedly been sticking very close to her new baby brother, Prince Louis' since he was born on April 23.

    “Charlotte is really enjoying having a younger brother to play with,” a source told Us Weekly. “She’s taking her big sister duties very seriously. She won’t leave baby Louis’ side.” How sweet!

    A post shared by Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (@dukeandduchessofcambridge)

    Charlotte's been learning the ropes from her big brother, Prince George, whom she also shares a great relationships with. “Charlotte is just like him. They have a great bond, and a similar connection is growing between Charlotte and Louis," the source continued. We could already tell by the big smooch she gave her brother!
