Princess Charlotte is the boss of the family

Princess Charlotte is reportedly "ruling the roost" in the Cambridge household.

The two-year-old daughter of Prince William and Duchess Catherine reportedly has a strong personality and is "ruling the roost" even over her older brother, three-year-old Prince George.

Samantha Burge, who is married to a warrant officer, spoke with Catherine at the unveiling of a new war memorial in London on Thursday and got to speak to the 35-year-old beauty about her children.

She shared: "[Catherine] said that Charlotte is growing up really fast. She is the one in charge ... We have both got two-year-olds and they are ruling the roost. It was a bit of a mummy chat."

Catherine and William attended the service with Prince Harry and Queen Elizabeth, who officially opened the new shrine in remembrance of those who lost their lives in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.

A religious ceremony was held earlier in the day, and Harry, 31, read out a biblical passage.

He relayed: "There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under Heaven . . . A time to love and a time to hate, A time for war and a time for peace.

"From learning the hard way to stay onside with my Colour Sergeant at [military academy] Sandhurst, to the incredible people I served with during two tours in Afghanistan - the experiences I have had over the last 10 years will stay with me for the rest of my life. Inevitably most good things come to an end and I am at a crossroads in my military career."
