After Kate Middleton posted a new photo of herself as a baby…how many of these royal toddlers can YOU name?
It’s an adorable photo of a smiling toddler reaching out to touch her father’s face.
And it’s all the more remarkable given that the adorable baby is none other than the Princess of Wales.
Kate shared the picture of herself with her father Michael Middleton yesterday to promote her new campaign, which highlights the importance of early childhood.
The snap was taken by the princess’s mum Carole and Kate captioned it: “With dad, from mum,” adding, “Faces are a baby’s best toy.”
She urged others to follow her example by sharing their own childhood photos online, and stars like Victoria Beckham, Harry Kane and Jamie Oliver did so – with the TV chef posting a picture of herself in brown trousers and strap-on 1970s roller skates years published.

The move caps a week of public relations to launch Princess’ Shaping Us campaign to “raise awareness of the crucial role our early years play in shaping the rest of our lives”.
Kate wrote: We would love it if you would spend time with your friends, family, colleagues and community this weekend and talk about your early childhood and how it shaped your life. I hope you also consider sharing a picture of yourself before your fifth birthday with me to help with those conversations and also to share smiles and memories.
To launch her campaign, the princess charmed youngsters at an East London primary school, spoke to pupils in Leeds and released an animated ‘claymation’ video of a little girl growing up from birth to the age of five.
A spokesman for the princess, who supports the work of the Royal Foundation Center for Early Childhood, described the cause as “her life’s work”, adding that the campaign aimed to examine how our early years “shape” us. the adults we are becoming.
