A new picture of Princess Charlotte enjoying the outdoors has been released to celebrate her second birthday.
The photo was taken by the Duchess of Cambridge at their Norfolk home, Anmer Hall, and pictures the Princess wearing a yellow cardigan, decorated with images of sheep, while she sports a navy clip in her hair.
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge said they are 'delighted' to share the photograph to mark their daughter's special day which is today.
The Cambridges have followed a trend they set with their daughter's first birthday and given royal fans a new image of the toddler princess.
In a statement Kensington Palace said: 'The Duke and Duchess are very pleased to share this photograph as they celebrate Princess Charlotte's second birthday.
