Princess Charlotte, daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, celebrates her fifth birthday today, an occasion that has been marked with the release of four new photographs of the British royal.

Kensington Palace tweeted the images yesterday, stating that they were taken last month by her mother as "the family helped to pack and deliver food packages for isolated pensioners in the local area".

In the photos, Princess Charlotte is seen carrying bags and knocking on a door.

Last month, Queen Elizabeth also celebrated her 94th birthday, amidst the coronavirus lockdown. The occasion was also marked with the release of an archive family video and photos.
