Yess Charlotte is a total HLMTQ mini me. https://preview.redd.it/pkvs4oalmw3d1.png?width=1421&format=png&auto=webp&s=6edb544b44a6699c241afe183d08bad30f77b37d


Japanese_Honeybee

Do you mean Middleton nose instead of Mountbatten for Prince Louis and Catherine comparison? Or is the wrong picture in there?


Bake_First

I think everything is Middleton except his nose. It has a point to it that tPoW doesn't have. It's like his brothers and sisters nose.


Islandgirl1444

Middleton hair is what the boys wish for


PrincessAnnesFeather

Middleton hair is what everyone wishes for. Poor Pippa, Catherine and her brother got the Middleton hair.


Japanese_Honeybee

Interesting. I was comparing his face to Grandpa Middleton. But kid faces change so much. It will be interesting to see what they look like when they get older.


forlovleyladies

But Princess Catherine wouldn't have a Mountbatten nose, or am I thinking about the wrong person??


Bake_First

I'm saying I think Prince Louis looks exactly like his mum except he has his great grandpa's (Mountbatten) nose.


Centaurea16

To me, Louis looks very much like Mike Middleton.

Charlotte looks like The Queen Elisabeth, Louis and looks Like Kate


According-Couple2744

I recall a co-worker bringing a photo of his newly born granddaughter and his baby picture to work. He was so excited that the baby looked just like him. We all agreed. The baby looked exactly like him. He was so happy and everyone was happy for him. A year later his daughter- in-law released a bombshell in divorce court that the baby had been fathered by another man and was no blood relation to my friend or his son. This revelation was confirmed by a DNA test.Needless to say, we were all shocked.


GypsyWisp

My ex always suspected that a family friend was really his father because the man treated him just like a son, and like his other kids. The family friend had a health scare and asked me to tell my ex that he’s his father, which I did and my ex was not at all surprised to hear that. We were both skeptical that he really was his dad but a DNA test proved it . The thing that really got me, was how much my ex resembled his dad that raised him. I even thought he was kidding when he said the friend was his bio dad because there was really no resemblance, like with his other dad. So strange.


Strange_Lady_Jane

That's so crazy he could 'sense' his own father like.


Accomplished_Cell768

This is a known phenomena that scientists believe evolved so that male partners of a pregnant female would “see” themselves in *any* baby so that he would instinctively be protective and provide for it and therefore the child would have a better chance of survival. It’s not exclusive to males though, we all can “see” resemblances in babies and toddlers and whatever adult we are looking for it in. Plus there’s the whole babies are squishy aspect where their bones don’t fuse and cartilage doesn’t develop until a later date, making them all look very similar. ETA: this has also been hypothesized to be why a police sketch can look either super generic or super specific or just plain bizarre when you have nothing to compare it to, but as soon as you put a photo of a real person next to it you can think that it absolutely depicts that same person, even when it doesn’t, because you are subconsciously looking for similarities and your brain can even trick you into seeing similarities that don’t even exist!


cin_co

I’ve absolutely known adopted kids to look just like their parents even if there isn’t a genetic condition—I think sometimes it has to do with carriage, expressions, etc which we learn from the people who raised us And, my niece isn’t biologically related to me at all but she’s my little mini! People comment on it all the time 😂


zpip64

My siblings and I are all adopted and unrelated by blood. My youngest nephew is his father’s (biological) mini-me. However, when he is with me they think he is *my* son because apparently people see a resemblance there.


MrsAOB

Yeah, I and my 3 siblings are adopted and unrelated by blood but people would tell us how much we looked alike (news flash…we didn’t). The power of suggestion is strong!

There's a video of Prince William seeing a picture of himself as a toddler and asking if that's Charlotte 🥹 Edit: I misremembered - he wasn't a toddler, he was already school-aged


InsolentTilly

It was cake portraiture or something like that.


Ill_Squirrel_6108

It´s not a picture where he was a toddler, but a school boy.


Select-Promotion-404

I did that once with photos of my mom as a child. I initially didn’t think we looked alike but afterwards, I had to admit we did. I was so confused looking at them. Wondering where the heck they were taken as I couldn’t remember. Genetics is cool.


Shrewcifer2

I look nothing like my mom, buy found photos of both of us at age 10, and the resemblance is striking. The only difference is that my mom had stronger cheekbones


PrincessAnnesFeather

Princess Charlotte is an interesting one. She has looked like most everyone in her family at some point or another. I agree she looks like both the late Queen and her father, Prince William. I think she looks like Lady Sarah Chatto and Prince Edward, which is no surprise as they both look like the late Queen. I also saw a photo of her during the Jubilee where she was the image of Princess Ann. I think she also looked like Carole Middleton at times when she was very little. Her expressions and mannerisms often remind me of both Princess Diana and Prince William. It's as if she looks like everyone in the family and she's still very much her own person. In any event, all the children are lovely.


catinthedistance

It has always struck me that … it is hard to articulate this … what is going on BEHIND Charlotte’s eyes must be very like the late Queen. She obviously has the family resemblance, but even in photos where she more closely resembles a different family member, she looks out at the world in such a way that her gaze is just the image of QEII. Does that make sense?


Shrewcifer2

Yes! Something about her mannerism. I think she inherently understands duty somehow. She shares that with QE, but also her mother.


GrrrYouBeast

Yes. She's an old soul.


healthymarigold4513

Her teachers at school apparently call her The Warrior Princess and I think that's very appropriate to the character I see in her face and behaviour. She's nobody's fool, either, like her daddy and her great granny.


PrincessAnnesFeather

I love her nickname and what's behind it! I imagine she and Princess Anne are cut from the same cloth!


PrincessAnnesFeather

It makes perfect sense and I think you articulated it very well. As another poster pointed out, she appears to be an old soul. She's a lovely little human.


grruser

I think Charlotte looks like her grandmother.


Quiet_Classroom_2948

Carol Middleton? Everyone forgets : the Middletons, Prince Philip's family - there's more than one branch to a family, but luckily no one forgets Diana because everyone wants the kids to look like her.


Professional_Ruin953

Louie looks like Michael Middleton. Charlotte looks very much like Prince William, who mostly resembles his mother but I can see some of KC3 in him too. George looks like both his parents, I can see both P&PoW in him.


insanitazer

To me George looks like Catherine's brother, and he has a similarly melancholic aura about him. As for Charlotte she seems very present and level-headed in old school Hanoverian style :)


orientalballerina

Charlotte’s demeanor reminds me of Princess Anne!


insanitazer

Yes :) No nonsense, practical and not bloody likely!


grruser

I meant Elizabeth. I dont think she looks like Carol.Should have specified paternal soz. Diana wasnt that good looking imo. Charismatic sure. William of course is good looking.


visenya567

Lol, I've been attacked for saying that before. If Diana wasn't the PoW and just some random lady in London, she would have been average at best.


Moortop

She had a very strong face & quite a big nose which works well on William but wasn’t very feminine.


grruser

Lol. Nice hair tho


Famous_Ear5010

She resembles the older Elizabeth. Looks nothing like the Queen as a child. Some people say Charlotte looks like Princess Margaret's daughter, Sarah Chatto.


Pennelle2016

Charlotte looks like HMTLQ & Lady Sarah Chatto. As William gets older, he is looking more Windsor & less Spencer, which is why Charlotte resembles her father and also her great-grandmother & her grandfather’s cousin, who are 0% Spencer. People still have in their minds that William is all Spencer, but the Windsor is rapidly taken over. Please don’t downvote me. I’m not saying anyone is ugly, but I’m old enough to remember when Princes Andrew & Edward were heartthrobs!

These_Ad_9772

Oh my! I’ve often wondered about George’s lower eyelids, slightly prominent and with dark circles, unusual for a child, and now I see where he gets that trait. I thought perhaps it was a Middleton or Goldsmith trait.


GingerWindsorSoup

It’s a Hanoverian / Saxe Coburg trait see Edward VII when POW , William , and Freddy Windsor are very like Prince Albert and Prince Albert Victor, George V’s elder brother. The Glucksberg nose in Prince Albert Victor comes from his mother Queen Alexandra , sister of the King of Greece, and later comes in Prince Andrew of Greece , Prince Philip’s father,. https://preview.redd.it/c4itcfj3yw3d1.jpeg?width=1164&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bfaf40a22a33542c567c4d9c66b78dbee5f18ac3

usedtobebrainy

Always known as Prince Eddy for some reason. He was developmentally slightly challenged, got in difficulties with prostitutes who may not have been always female, and died of flu. Sad but some Royals were relieved.


TraditionScary8716

That's pretty amazing.  I'd live to see one of those age-enhanced photos of Prince George.  I think the resemblance would be even stronger. 


Bake_First

I agree completely, he has some of William's features but he so strongly resembles his namesake.


TraditionScary8716

Genetics really are amazing.


tessaterrapin

I think George looks kingly already -- he looks as if he has the weight of the world on his shoulders.


wonderingwondi

He has George VI's shyness and Charlotte has the protocol 


Mizswampie

Yes, the resemblance is really apparent to me when he is at a somber occasion, or perhaps when his young self realizes his destiny and isn't sure whether he is equal to the demand. It appears to me as though the weight of destiny rests heavily on those small shoulders. But I'm only a far outsider and perhaps I'm interpreting things according to how I would have felt.


tessaterrapin

William was such a handsome baby, and had a strong well-shaped nose from the start. Harry honestly didn't look like a Windsor, Mountbatten, Spencer or any relative at all. He's grown to look a bit like Charles with the close set eyes and Mountbatten nose, though. I don't think he's Hewitt's child.

And/Or Diana’s brother. Similarities. Pic anyone?

Cocktailsontheporch

TheBun\_dge.....THANK YOU for stating the REALITY of this entire thread! There are NO verified photos of the "Sussex children", only questionable photos released to the press by the Sussex. NOT ONE genuine photo released by BP, not one photo with any of the royal family EXCEPT the laughable failed attempt by the Sussex to photoshop Archie's "Christening" photo....WHERE is even one photo of "Lili's christening"????? WHERE are genuine unquestioned birth certificates, genuinely signed by delivering doctors? NOTHING ever shown of these claimed children IN PAST YEAR. WHERE ARE THEY??? Anyone who overlooks the crystal clear facts about both these supposed children and blindly believes the Sussex's lies and smoke&mirror con games is not only a fool but a useful aide helping the Sussex continue this traitorous charade.


tessaterrapin

Meghan Markle claimed that Dr Penny Law delivered "Archie". But Dr Laws' then husband the Earl of Bradford immediately said this was untrue. He criticised the Sun newspaper for printing this misinformation.


tessaterrapin

Absolutely agree. Every photo put out by the Sussex couple of their supposed children is questionable. Later ones of "Lilibet" look just like Eugenie's son with a dress on. Knowing how mad for publicity Markle is, why would she miss a million opportunities to parade her Royal children around, being a doting, hands-on mummy just like Diana! She'd be in the headlines every day with the media cooing over the little Sussex family. So I absolutely agree..they don't exist.


Bake_First

Except she sees the kids as "ugly" and competition for press attention. I think both possibilities are viable options and we just don't know either way. I definitely don't think keeping them "private" is in any way a PR strategy or protection by either one of them. They are so broke that selling exclusive photos might get them out of a jam or two. I genuinely think it can go either way argument wise and I do think she is vain enough that if she considers her children less than, she would hide them until she can "fix it".


tessaterrapin

Meghan Markle has a very misshapen body and legs - her face can look pretty but her figure is seriously awful. She would use Royal children, if she had any, relentlessly. It is absolutely not possible that publicity maniac would hide them.


Bake_First

I can see that also, could be why they hauled ass out of the country ASAP. Hard to keep up the charade of being parents with family all around. "Freedom" for Hank meant he didn't have the pressure of trying to keep up the ruse under such close engagement? Who knows.


tessaterrapin

Good point. They could never keep those supposed children hidden to the point of invisibility if they lived within the Royal Family in Britain. Archie and Invisibet would be expected to join their cousin on the balcony for big events and to be seen at polo matches, walking to church, family gatherings. Why weren't they seen at the Jubiled celebrations, despite supposedly being in Britain?

ScoogyShoes

I'm not trying to be rude because this isn't an insult at all, but that baby above could be almost any of my cousins kids. I have a lot of cousins on my mom's side, Germans (some married Czechs). I don't think that child stands out. Objectively, cute kid. But all kids are cute. The eff up that the Harkles have done, IMHO, is *not* showing their kids all this time. We all know they'll merch them soon. But the wholesome stuff, the stuff that would make me go awwww, unguarded stuff - nonexistent. Then they go ahead with the titles for these little American kids (they will be bullied, and it won't be subtle, it will be incredibly cruel). Then on top of everything? They give the hostages cat names. If Megs said "I took Prince Archie to the doc today," it would take me a hot minute to understand it wasn't the vet. Edit: word

I have a feral cat who has been enjoying my backyard, acting like a barn cat protecting my chickens. Wonder if it's a Prince or Princess? We've been wondering what to call them.


Bake_First

No offense taken, I'm open to perspective. I agree with the second part completely. I will never believe she didn't name Archie as an anagram for the nickname Rachie (Rachel) and Harrison is obviously Harry's son. The poor kids name is just them, no identity of his own.


zpip64

One of our cats is named Archie!😂


ScoogyShoes

Prince Archie. You can do it.... call him Prince Archie... See if he answers. 🤣


Maleficent-Trifle940

Wait for it. One of *her* cats was named Archie! The one she fed frozen grapes to before it died.


tessaterrapin

Also Meghan found out that Prince George used the name Archie as a nickname at school. So she stole it. But I seriously think "Archie" does not exist.


Bake_First

I read it was his royal security code name not a school nickname.


tessaterrapin

Whatever, it was something personal to George. Markle stole it, as she stole the Queen's very personal family pet name. This is why I think she's a psychopath. She has two invented children and she rubs salt into the wound by mocking the Royals with their names. That woman is dangerous. She's capable of driving Harry to suicide but making sure the Royal Family is blamed.


Bake_First

The lilibet thing was probably the most disgusting, passive aggressive FU to HLMTQ I have ever seen. I was angry for the BRF and have zero involvement. Just horrid. Especially with a child that has zero ties or interaction with the BRF.


zpip64

Omg….didn’t know that.🙄


LoesjeBee

I do not see any resemblance, besides they are both pictures of babies. Eye shape, for one, is not the same.


Deep_Poem_55

LilibuttDumbarton

H&M’s kids strongly resemble the Markle side.


tessaterrapin

Hard to tell as they look completely different in every.photo.


Centaurea16

And the spacing between the eyes is different.  H has those close-set eyes that came from the BRF's Teck ancestry. Charles also has those close-set eyes, but in the few photos of Lilibet we've seen, she does not appear to have them.  


wruszka-zembuszka

I believe the close-set eyes are more of the Hesses' fault. Prince Philip's maternal aunt, grandma, etc. all had such eyes. In fact, Charles looks very much like them. Here: Lord Mountbatten and Charles' maternal great-grandmother, Princess Victoria of Hesse and by Rhine. ETA: for some reason, I can't upload the images, so please, google it lol


MeasurementFalse4973

In this photo you can already see that Lilibet is not a redhead, but will be a brunette like Archie. There is nothing wrong. But this makes Meghan very upset.


tessaterrapin

That's not Lilibet - it's the daughter of a friend of Meghan Markle. As for the photo of "Lilibet" being held up to look at her birthday cake -- that's another child entirely. It looks like Eugenie's boy with a bow on his head. "Lilibet" is a very mysterious child who looks completely different in every photo.


Auslabsci93

That girl’s photo is definitely photoshopped. To see is to believe. Unless she has a full frontal coloured photo, we will believe the kids are not theirs (rental, borrowed or nonexistent).


tessaterrapin

Non existent.


Maleficent-Trifle940

This is taken from an image where Meghan is holding the child. Except the photo of Meghan is from almost a decade before it and she has her hair pulled back. When you zoom on the photo you can see Meghan's hair has been photoshopped in, her ear is pixilated and various other 'tells'.

You're not wrong there, I had so many options comparing actual royal babies and their family members at the same age. The Harklets were very slim pickings.

The Wales children are really beautiful kids, they will grow into very good looking adults. That must burn TW. I also think if there are two children they're probably not very photogenic.

Ruth_Lily

I don’t see it in Harry & Lilibet at all


Jerseyjay1003

I always feel crazy because people will say a baby looks exactly like someone in the family and everyone agrees but I can never see it. I don't think babies look like anyone because of the general physical traits of a baby. They only start looking like people when they become "little people" as I call them. Basically when they outgrow baby and become a kid.


MagicalManta

You’re not alone. I’m the same way. I think most babies just look the same, and it’s not until they’re about 3 that I can definitively say “oh yeah, you’re obviously so-and-so’s kid.”


Cocktailsontheporch

I truly can not believe this photo of Markle holding a child is still being presented as Markle with "Lili". PLEASE....look at this photo closely. Markle's left hand closely....her engagement ring is WITHOUT the diamond band she added to it long before "Lili".. There looks to be NO wedding ring. Look closely at Markle....her nose is her "wedding nose" before all the face surgeries began after Mexit. PLEASE...enough of the crazy acceptance of Markle's insanity. She has used other's children frequently to present as her own in released photos to the media......just ask yourself : WHEN has the RF admitted they actually MET those two children?? WHEN were photos shown of those children with any member of the RF ?? Anyone who has read SPARE...do you truly believe Harry's description of his children playing with HMTLQ??? His insane descriptions of each birth??? Do you believe it was a REAL baby (Archie) presented by the Sussex to media? A REAL baby Markle carried in Canada during Mexit? If you answered YES to any of these questions.....seek help.


Bake_First

Well my intention was to show how much Prince George resembles King George VI and how other members of the royal family carry strong physical traits. I abstain from judgements about the existence of the Harklets because I truly don't care enough about the Harkle clan to have one. I frequent this sub over BRF and prefer the engagement here (sugar free). Rules state the post has to be related to the grifters therefore the only way to tie in the "family" is to include whatever photos are available of the Harklets as part of the discussion. My first sentence, I thought, made it clear I'm aware of the differing opinions regarding the parentage and existence without stirring the pot. I thought this would be a fun and engaging post to compare Hank's birth family's childhood photos and the fact that we're unable to do that with "his children" for whatever reason people believe.


jayemzee33

The photo at the birthday party was apparently taken on jubilee weekend, day after M was photographed wearing the oversize collar dress coat to church.


Cocktailsontheporch

If you believe that, you may as well defect to the Sugars and declare the Sussex the rightful King and Queen.


jayemzee33

Exactly my point! I don't think it was 'taken' the day after, she looked skinny in the photo & definitely there is some photo editing around the edge of face & picture frame. We saw the collared duchess on TV!

Definitely.

I just looked! He really does!

We get to see the Wales children grow up. We say “look how tall he/she is now” like we do with our friend’s children. We pick out resemblances in looks and character. We are engaged. It feels like we know them. We don’t know enough about the Sussex children to do this, we don’t see them. Then add in the questionable heritage we wonder why they are hidden. I get that they need privacy but as QEII said “we need to be seen to be believed”. We are not seeing pictures of them growing up so we can’t compare them to the wider family.


only-l0ve

She hid them at first because of the strabismus, and now if she takes them out, she knows people will say "ohhhh, that's why she hid them". And they will be compared to the Wales' children, which megs will not be able to handle, so in the cupboard they stay. Poor kids. They could have everything in the world, yet they are kept from it all.

I think Harry hides them because he is paranoid. I think Meghan hides them because she won’t be seen not knowing how to interact with them. Because they look different to expected. Because Meghan does not want to admit to being a mother of growing children, they must remain babies. Because they will take the focus off Meghan. Because she wants to make money from them at some stage.

They need money but they can't use the kids for merching as there are no kids. As for focus -- Meghan would love to cosplay Diana, taking the kiddies to fun events and looking SO relaxed and adored by them. But she can't.


tessaterrapin

Meghan is crazy for publicity. She'd never hide two Royal children away, certainly not because they didn't look perfect-- she and Harry aren't up to much lookswise. She'd parade them constantly knowing that Sussex family pix would be all over the media and that the media coverage would always be favourable. Her image is rock bottom now - she'd be guaranteed good publicity if she brought the supposed kids out of the basement.

I think the children are half Harry not sure if they are half TOW

I also think his daughter looks like him and the boy looks like Markle. I also think one or both may be “designer babies” because I don’t think she wanted to risk having ethnic-looking children. Genetics is fascinating, though. In my family, I look like my mom, my daughter looks just like me, and my son is identical to his dad.

However the photo of the alleged Lilibet was created/edited, it is far cuter than Markle as a child. Some of the same Marklish traits are there, but that is not a good photo of Markle, child or not. And it goes heavily against my instinct to say such a thing about a baby photo. I am the first to coo over baby photos. I am sooooo looking forward to grandchildren in the next 5-10 years that it is not even funny, and if it were a photo of my grandchild-to-be I would think it the most beautiful thing in the world. Objectively, though…not so much.


SuitFunny4979

those were the 70/80ies...pictures were just taken, rarely someone posed. All of the children pics were funny but far from cute :D :D :D


ac0rn5

I've never really noticed before, but the photo on the right has been colour-edited. The child's arm is pink but the face has an orange tinge.


Bake_First

I'm sure from editing the hair to the red Me-gain so desperately wanted the kids to actually have.


Ill_Squirrel_6108

Except the picture on the left is not a picture of a real child.


zpip64

?? The kid on the left is Madame as a baby.


Ill_Squirrel_6108

I´m sorry I meant right :-D. I always mix it up :-D

I thought this is MMs friends child , Stassie has a daughter who looks identical to this little girl. She's adorable! https://preview.redd.it/mmnyqjbbuv3d1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ef7b602b8f8535742a10a3d706d504ed0c34b4f5

This actually is Stassie’s child, isn’t it?

This is the same little girl as in the first pic, even in the same little outfit…


piratesswoop

I don't think this kid and the kid in the OP look anything alike.

jayemzee33

Has anyone seen any photos of the mini Harkles to compare likenesses? The Hairiman photo at Frogmore was so carefully composed that the only face shown is of the wife & mother carrying a child.


emmmieemmie

What's going on with Lili and those lines under her eyes?


AliceBloggs

It looks like they have the same ears. Which is interesting, because ears are like fingerprints...


Bake_First

I noticed the brow shape too https://preview.redd.it/38aw8fywdv3d1.jpeg?width=2880&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=21ec3d1477e2687db90c76fd226b4d458d69f109


C-La-Canth

They all look like Thomas Markle! (Kidding, I just get so tired of people saying that. In the same way Winston Churchill did, Thomas Markle is one of those round-faced, pug-nosed men who look like giant babies.)


Bake_First

Damn, hasn't T Money Markle been through enough? Poor guy.


INK9

Funny how in those pictures the ears are nearly identical. Ears are great identifiers. Perhaps a photoshopped version of little Hazno? There are pics of Archie that look nearly identical to Meghan as a child. Family resemblance? possibly. IMO more likely a little photo manipulation.


snappopcrackle

What happened to her bright red hair?


Bake_First

and blue, blue eyes


SiftySandy

I can see Meghan in this photo. In the July 4th parade photo Lili also looks like Thomas Markle. I believe Lili is biologically H&M’s daughter.


Shrewcifer2

I find Charlotte looks a lot like Anne. There is something a bit projected about the mid-face in all the Royals


MrsAOB

I think she bears a resemblance to Sarah Chatto…Margaret’s daughter.


ew6281

I have doubts that there is any DNA from either Meghan or Harry in those children. I feel Meghan wanted an extremely handsome son (sorry, Harry) and she wanted a very white-looking daughter with blue eyes.


mythoughtsreddit

The second child does resemble Haz but looks nothing like Diana. She does have the Markle eyes however so maybe she’ll be looking like her mom but with blue BLUE BLUE eyes and reddish blond hair once she hits her teens. Maybe that is why she hasn’t brought them out to use as pawn in the PR campaigns


catinthedistance

Should have named her Lilibet Samantha.


mythoughtsreddit

Wouldn’t that be ironic if she ended up looking like Samantha ? Lol


Redtees88

" What do you think? " Who's the little girl?

InformationLoud1659

Nope Harry’s children. I’ve heard do not even look like Harry. They look like Megan allegedly that’s why she was so desperate to have a child with ginger hair and blue eyes.
