The Cambridge kids (opens in new tab) are growing up and their own unique personalities are shining through.
A royal insider recently gave new insights into the oldest Cambridge children's (opens in new tab)personalities—and their relationship with each other, according to the Daily Mail (opens in new tab).
While you might expect young siblings to squabble quite a bit, according to the royal source, Prince George, 6, and Princess Charlotte (opens in new tab), 4, usually get along really well. Their arguments are apparently pretty rare and usually over minor issues.
"It's usually over silly things like toys or what TV shows they want to watch," the source said. "But most of the time they get on."
The insider also said that George is more reserved (opens in new tab) than his sister (which will surprise exactly no one who has ever seen a picture of them together in public), but that he's "coming out of his shell" as he gets older.
"Charlotte's extremely confident and loves attention," the source said of Prince William and Kate Middleton's (opens in new tab) only daughter, who has already earned a reputation for being playful in front of the cameras.
Even though George isn't as naturally outgoing (opens in new tab) as his younger sister, the source says he definitely steps up to take on the role of the big brother with Charlotte and with Prince Louis (opens in new tab).
"George is always looking out for his younger brother and sister and is already showing traits of making an excellent leader," the insider explained.
