With that in mind, William and Kate see to it that their children’s birthdays are extra special.

And that was just the beginning; they also surprised the princess with a lavish gift.

Princess Charlotte got a pony for her birthday!

“The gift Charlotte wanted more than anything was a pony.

“Being in the public eye comes naturally to her she rarely feels intimidated or complains about it.

It’s something she really enjoys.”
