“Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our year,” read the caption that accompanied the video. The montage also included looks at the 2023 Royal Ascot in June and the flypast for Charles’s coronation in Scotland in July.

2023 wasn’t just major for Charles. The year marked Kate and William officially using the Prince and Princess of Wales titles. George also had a big year, especially as he served as a Page of Honor for his grandfather and George’s brother, Louis, started to attend more events, including the family’s Christmas walk at Sandringham and the aforementioned Christmas concert. As for Charlotte, she managed to become a TikTok star when a compilation of her most fabulous moments became a viral hit on the platform.
