Princess Charlotte reached a major milestone last night, as she signed off her first official message on Kensington Palace’s official social media accounts. After watching the nerve-wracking Women’s Euro Final in Switzerland with her father, Prince William, the daddy-daughter duo issued a message of congratulations.
They wrote: “What a game! Lionesses, you are the champions of Europe and we couldn’t be prouder of the whole team. Enjoy this moment England. W & Charlotte.” Some fans may have noticed that Charlotte’s name was signed off in full, rather than the normal protocol of using just initials.
William, for instance, signed off using just a ‘W’ as he usually does for social media messages that he personally wrote.

The reason for using Charlotte’s full name is quite simple, however, as her mother’s first name also begins with the letter C, Catherine. So, to differentiate from a message signed off by the Prince and Princess of Wales, which would be W & C, Charlotte’s full name has been used.
It was different when the Wales children posted a Father’s Day tribute to William—their first social media post—as the context made it obvious that Charlotte was writing the message, and not her mum.
The Father’s Day post was issued last June, and read: “We love you, Papa. Happy Father’s Day”, followed by two red hearts and signed “G, C & L”.
A picture taken by the Princess showed William standing on a beach with his arms around his children, looking out to sea.
