Princess Charlotte will attend the Queen's funeral, along with older brother Prince George, with their involvement confirmed late on Sunday night, when the order of service for the state event was made public.

It's now been close to two weeks since Her Majesty, great grandmother to Charlotte, George and younger brother Prince Louis, passed away peacefully at her Scottish home Balmoral, at the age of 96. Since her passing, many members of the Royal Family, including the children's parents, Prince William and Kate, have attended public events, including the procession of the Queen's coffin from Buckingham Palace to Westminster Hall, followed by a moving service.

Princess Charlotte hasn't been seen at any of the events that has followed the Queen's death, but on Sunday, her name appeared on the Order of Service for the Queen's funeral at Westminster Abbey, alongside Prince George 's.

The second of William and Kate's children, her full name features touching nods to both her great grandmother and her father's late mother as her, with it being Charlotte Elizabeth Diana.

The early part of Charlotte' life was spent at Anmer Hall in Norfolk, before her family moved to Kensington Palace. Just days before the Queen's death, Charlotte started at new school Lambrook, after she, her parents and siblings moved to Windsor.
