Royal COUSINS

With plenty of cousins ready for fun, Baby Sussex will not be short of little pals!

PRINCE GEORGE

The 5-year-old (turning 6 on July 22) is third-in-line to the British throne, behind his grandfathe­r, Prince Charles, and father, Prince William. “There’ll be a time and a place to bring George up and understand how he fits in, in the world,” William has said. “But right now, it’s just a case of keeping a secure, stable environmen­t around him and showing as much love as I can as a father.” The future king is in Year 1 at Thomas’s Battersea school in London. “He’s learning about space,” mum Kate, Duchess of Cambridge, said in February. At school, where he is known as George Cambridge, “he’s very happy,” a source tells WHO.

MIA TINDALL

Mia, 5, and her 10-month-old sister, Lena, are the daughters of Harry’s cousin and Princess Anne’s daughter, Zara Tindall, and her husband, onetime rugby legend Mike Tindall. Mia has a penchant for pulling funny faces and won hearts by holding her great-grandma’s handbag in the Queen’s 90th birthday portrait.

PRINCESS CHARLOTTE

At her uncle Prince Harry’s wedding to Meghan, Princess Charlotte drew attention with her big smile and waved to the gathered crowds from the top of the steps of

St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle. The 4-year-old attends Willcocks Nursery School, a private school in

West London, and she takes weekly ballet lessons at a dance school in South London. “My daughter Charlotte loves dancing,” Prince William has shared, while the Duchess of Cambridge, who calls her daughter ‘Lottie’ for short, took her to a private pre-rehearsal performanc­e of The Nutcracker at London’s famous Royal Opera House in December. “She looked so excited to be there and sat very still, watching the show,” an onlooker tells WHO. “It was very sweet.”

SAVANNAH PHILLIPS

Eight-year-old Savannah is the daughter of Harry’s cousin Peter Phillips and his wife, Autumn. The Queen’s oldest great-grandchild and Princess Anne’s oldest grandchild, she and sister Isla, reportedly live a normal life in London but both have been known to ham it up with Prince George during Trooping the Colour.

ISLA PHILLIPS

The 7-year-old is 16th-in-line to the British throne. When her father, Peter Phillips, wed Canadian Autumn Kelly in 2008, he was the first of the Queen’s grandchild­ren to marry. Isla made her debut on the royal balcony in 2017, and with her sister, was a bridesmaid when Princess Eugenie married Jack Brooksbank in 2018.

PRINCE LOUIS

Born on April 23, 2018, Louis, 1, will be the closest in age to the new royal. Duchess Kate shared an update on her youngest son while in Dundee, Scotland, in January telling a wellwisher that “Louis is a fast crawler.”
