 But it is her best friend Valentine Pozzo di Borgo that Charlotte is inseparable from |
For a little girl with everything – her paternal grandparents even presented her with a $9-million island off Sardinia for her fifth birthday – it was only a matter of time before she had the world in the palm of her hands.
And Charlotte, who seems to have had neither an awkward age nor a "wild child" phase, has made the most of her youth. Always discreet, her public romances are few and far between, though reports say she 's been known to flirt with Andrea's pals David Alexis, the son of a French businessman, and Hubertus Herring-Frankensdorf, a wealthy Austrian business student.
The multi-lingual teenager – she speaks French, Italian and English as well as a little German – counts playing piano and socialising with her best friend Valentine Pozzo di Borgo among her pastimes. Her passions include being big sister to her goddaughter and half-sibling Alexandra, whose dad is Prince Ernst of Hanover, and of course, she's also famed for her skills in equestrian pursuits. "She knows how to hold herself, how to sit properly," said a friend. "She has class – like her grandmother."
