The only daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton , she follows her father and elder brother, Prince George , in the succession line. It's been reported that after learning about the vital contributions of NHS staff from her father, Charlotte showed an inclination towards nursing as a profession.
A source revealed to New Idea magazine: "She's obviously just a little kid but still, Will and Kate swelled with pride. She's such a caring little girl who also knows what she wants, so they wouldn't be surprised if she does take on nursing as one of her big causes when she's older." Speculation suggests that in adulthood, Charlotte's role within the Royal Family may mirror that of Princess Anne, the sister of King Charles .
Together with her younger brother Louis, Charlotte is anticipated to occupy a senior royal position and potentially inherit significant titles. Meanwhile, it's suggested that the Prince and Princess of Wales are keen for their younger children to enjoy greater freedom in their lives. Camilla Tominey, a royal expert and associate editor at The Telegraph, has suggested that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will encourage their children to pursue their own careers if they wish.
She further stated that they would not want Louis to follow in the footsteps of the Duke of York and become a "royal hanger-on", reports the Mirror .

"They have already shown that they have a different and modern attitude to bringing up Royal children and I'm sure they will do everything to make Charlotte and Louis feel every bit as special, loved and valued as George.
I imagine they will encourage Louis to explore life outside the Royal fold...
it could be the military, but it could also be working in the charity world or whatever he finds appealing after his education is finished. I'm sure they will encourage him to go to University, which they both enjoyed and where, of course, they found love. "And from there they will want him to find a life that is meaningful to him as well as appropriate for the son of a future King.
They will try to ensure that he feels he is living a life of value, irrespective of his place in the line of succession and that will probably involve service of some kind as they have emphasised from the start that they want their children to understand that having empathy with others is not only a kindness, but is rewarding as well." Richard Eden, the royal correspondent for the Daily Mail, also thinks it's unlikely that Princess Charlotte will become a full-time Royal. "From what I hear, the Prince and Princess of Wales want Charlotte to grow up with the expectation that she will get a job and not be a full-time royal," Eden stated.
"Personally, I would prefer to see a larger Royal Family, carrying out more official engagements and meeting more members of the public. If Charlotte is to get a job and not be an active member of 'The Firm,' she needs to be ready to step into the breach, if needed," he further added.
