The funniest thing with that habit is that before to her wedding Kate Middelton was called Kate by the spanish press, in english, but the moment she got married she became Catalina.

Some of us think the funniest thing was that she went from K - Kate to C - Catherine instead of
Kate to Katherine or
Cate to Catherine.
I mean - who mis-spells their kid's nickname like that?

Maybe! I am so used that I don't even hear it. I just say Charlotte if I speak in french and Carlota if I speak in spanish without thinking it! After all, the name is not that differente in both languages compared to some other. Just think that the british princes, harry and william, are "Enrique y Guillermo" for all the spaniards!

I don't know but I don't think it bothers her. After all it's nothing ugly or insulting, just a tradition... I guess she looked disgusted simply because she hates paparazzi.

Is is because of the Spanish Press that I learned that Elisabeth and Isabel is THE SAME name!!! In Greece we have Isabellas and Elisabeths (both are not really greek names but some people bear it), thinking that they are different names. It is very funny.

Well, I don't know but If someone calls me the wrong name, I won't bother to speak to him.

Thanks, trepstrep for the answer!!
Fandsesacs, i do remember the pics of her driving lessons. I don't think she drives a car though. At least we haven't seen pictures of her driving. There is always a chauffeur with her.

YES, it is TRUE. Her posture vaguely remember her mother IN ATTITUDES.Caroline was more 'chic .. Charlotte more' natural, spontaneous, but she needs to have a natural posture right for the health. is riding that practice?

really? I hate what she is wearing. I don't care if it's classic Chanel, it's granny-like and shapeless and makes her short-legged. It's something an 80 years old will wear.
To pull off this kind of outfit and not ending up looking like a grandma, you need to be exceptionally classy and elegant, and have a strong allure and confidence. Charlotte looks like she's hiding inside a black raffia bag.
I like her red lips, though.

Her mother Caroline would have pulled it off

I really hate that outfit. It is too conservative.
