It doesn't look like a reliable book

Princess is no profession. It is a title.
There are plenty of Princes and Princesses (and Counts and Countesses, and Barons and Baronesses) having their own businesses, working in a company, whatever.

Indeed not a very reliable sounding book with such a ridiculous title.

According to the blurb, the book is about "the ten most famous princesses of the new generation" and along with Letizia, Maxima, Mette Marit etc the list includes a 'Charlotte'. Surely not Miss Charlotte Casiraghi? Has she achieved something we haven't been told about?

One could argue that none of the princesses are famous for their achievement, but rather by virtue of being born into royalty or marrying into it. This is specifically true of Charlotte, whose grandmother is the embodiment of this “fairytale”. I agree. The title of this book is peculiar.

I think that perhaps what the title might mean is these women are princesses, and have turned that into their career.
