The young princess will likely have her pick of the royal vault one day

Princess Charlotte is destined to inherit access to the British royal family’s treasure trove of jewelry, so when will she wear a tiara for the first time?

The princess, 10, is likely still years away from her tiara debut, as the headpieces have been exclusively worn by royal women who are at least young adult age in recent generations.

However, there’s a chance that Princess Charlotte will make her tiara debut earlier than her mother, Kate Middleton, did at age 29.

Princess Kate wore a tiara in public for the first time when she married Prince William in April 2011, shimmering in the Cartier Halo Tiara, which was loaned from Queen Elizabeth.

Queen Elizabeth and Princess Diana both sported tiaras for the first time on their respective wedding days.

That said, two other women in the royal family wore the sparkling headtoppers before they tied the knot, paving the way for Princess Charlotte to do the same if she takes on a working royal role in the future.

Queen Elizabeth’s sister, Princess Margaret, wore a tiara for the first time when she was 18, donning Queen Mary’s Diamond Lozenge Bandeau for one of Queen Juliana of the Netherlands’ inauguration events in 1948.

Queen Elizabeth’s daughter, Princess Anne, made her tiara debut at age 17, sporting the Cartier Halo Tiara at the State Opening of Parliament in 1967.

It was Anne’s first time attending the ceremonial event, and she brought the sparkle with the demure headpiece that Princess Kate would later wear on her royal wedding day.

Princess Margaret and Princess Anne’s tiara wear before their wedding days was likely because they were already working members of the royal family, a position that Princess Charlotte might step up into.

As the granddaughter of King Charles, daughter of heir Prince William and younger sister of the next successor, Prince George, Charlotte will likely take on a working royal role one day — and have her pick of the jewelry collection that comes with it.
