Eight-year-old Princess Charlotte is extremely patient and smiling during official events.

The young royal watched the ceremony held at Horse Guards Parade with her brother Prince Louis, 5, and her great-aunt Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh.

At one point, Charlotte had had enough and asked the Duchess, "Sophie, how much longer?" She asked.

Sophie did not nudge Charlotte with this question, but instead told her, "I think it's now," claimed lip reader Jeremy Freeman in the Daily Star.

Charlotte also made headlines on Saturday when she had an adorable exchange with her father, Prince William, while standing on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.

And while sharp-eyed royal fans wondered whether the little girl wore the same dress to "Trooping the Colour" that she wore to the recent coronation, according to children's clothing designer Amaia Arrieta, who spoke to People, it appears that she did indeed.

"The skirt moves exactly the same, but the sleeves have been altered and a collar and belt have been added. It was perfect for her, and since it was only a few weeks ago, it makes sense."

Charlotte's dress this past weekend was reminiscent of the English flag, white with a red cross. Arrieta commented, "It was very patriotic and I think it suited her beautifully."
