Princess Charlotte and her cousin Mia Tindall have been affectionately dubbed “double trouble” by royal observers, thanks to their close bond and mischievous antics during royal events. While specific pranks aren’t publicly documented, their playful behavior has been noted in various instances. For example, during the 2022 Platinum Jubilee, they were seen giggling together while watching the Trooping the Colour festivities from a window. On Christmas Day 2023, they shared a cheeky moment, appearing to be deep in conversation and enjoying each other’s company. Royal expert Ingrid Seward remarked on their dynamic, highlighting how Mia brings out Charlotte’s more adventurous side, making royal gatherings more lively and fun. The Sun & Marie Claire

Their friendship mirrors that of their parents, Prince William and Zara Tindall, who were also known for their playful camaraderie in their youth. This generational continuity of close cousin relationships adds a heartwarming touch to royal family dynamics.

While the specifics of their “double trouble” moments remain private to most people (you are priveledged), it’s evident that Charlotte and Mia’s bond brings joy and a touch of mischief to royal occasions.

 Crown & Chaos: Princess Charlotte and Her BFF Declared National Security Threat Level “Double Trouble”

Buckingham Palace has long withstood sieges, scandals, and several seasons of The Crown, but it may have finally met its match: two pint-sized pranksters known across royal circles as “Double Trouble.” We’re talking about none other than Princess Charlotte of Cambridge and her best friend/confidante/fellow noble anarchist, Mia Tindall — the highborn duo currently laying waste to centuries of ceremonial stiffness with glitter glue, corgi costumes, and sheer audacity.

Royal watchers have described the pair as “charmingly chaotic,” “ferociously fearless,” and in one off-the-record quote from a palace guard, “tiny terrorists in Mary Janes.”

The Rise of Royal Rascals

It began innocently. A shared juice box at a polo match. A mutual distaste for being told to “smile properly for the photographers.” But quickly, Charlotte and Mia formed an alliance so tight it made NATO look like a WhatsApp group that forgot the password.

According to royal insider Lady Pippa Panhandle, “We always knew Charlotte had that twinkle in her eye — a kind of regal mischief. But Mia? She’s like the Pied Piper of royal rebellion. Together, they’re a constitutional crisis with pigtails.”

Let’s take a walk through their greatest hits — the pranks that shook the palace, humbled the monarchs, and delighted the masses.


Pranks Worthy of the Crown (and Possibly a Lawsuit)

Swapping the Queen’s Purse for a Ham Sandwich

Eyewitnesses at a royal luncheon say Her Late Majesty unzipped her iconic handbag expecting mints, and instead pulled out a deli surprise wrapped in parchment. She reportedly said, “This must be one of Philip’s.”

‘Kick Me, I’m a Commoner’ Sign on King Charles

During a Windsor castle stroll, Charlotte discreetly taped a note on her grandfather’s back. The footmen laughed. The public laughed. The King tripped on a pheasant.

Shrek Portrait Replacements

For two weeks, no one noticed that every royal portrait had been replaced with framed images of Shrek in various ceremonial garb. The Duchess of Cornwall thought it was a tribute to Prince Andrew.

Lip Gloss Hidden in the Crown Jewels

Meghan Markle’s prized Fenty Gloss Bomb was found buried in the Tower of London’s main display case. Officials blamed “a clerical error,” but Charlotte winked during the televised apology.

Corgis Now Respond to ‘Slay Queen’

Training the royal corgis to only respond to modern slang has made morning walks a performance art piece. King Charles now begins his day shouting “YAASSS” on the front lawn of Balmoral.

Whoopee Cushion in the Archbishop’s Throne

An Easter Sunday mass took a sonic turn when the Archbishop sat down and released a sound “unbecoming of the cloth.” The congregation roared. God was not available for comment.

Moody Meter on Prince William’s Door

Installed without permission, this LED device cycles through “Duke of Dull,” “Hairline in Retreat,” and “Cries After Watching Bake Off.”

Bagpipes Now Play ‘Baby Shark’

A solemn Scottish ceremony turned into a viral moment when bagpipes belted out do-do-do-do-do. Bagpipers have since unionized.

GPS Redirection: The Tesco Incident

Charles and Camilla ended up in Croydon instead of Windsor. They emerged from Tesco with flapjacks and a tub of Ambrosia. Camilla said it was “the best day since Diana stopped haunting me.”

Googly-Eyed Christmas Cards

All royal holiday cards were defaced with hand-drawn mustaches and craft-store eyes. Prince George was framed. Buckingham denies the cards still hang in Balmoral’s west hallway.

The TikTok Takeover

The girls launched @HRHPrankQueens and posted videos of them hot-gluing tiaras to garden gnomes and rating royal outfits on a scale of “Iconic” to “Sent Home from Eton.”

Fan Fiction Swap

During a reading gala, Camilla began reading a children’s tale that quickly turned into royal fan fiction featuring dragons, cloaks, and a romance between Princess Anne and a yeti. She finished it. The audience clapped.

Gift Bag for Harry

Charlotte left a sack of spare keys and a note: “Come back when you’re done with Netflix.” It was accompanied by a gingerbread man missing a head.

Bathroom Door Prank

Palace restrooms were relabeled “Lords” and “Peasants.” Boris Johnson reportedly chose “Peasants,” claiming it was a statement on humility.

Golden Toilet Tribute

Craft paint. Metallic shimmer. A throne fit for King Midas — or at least a guest on Love Island. The palace plumbers are still scrubbing.

What the Funny People Are Saying

British comedians and imported jesters alike have weighed in on the chaos:

“Princess Charlotte once swapped King Charles’ speech notes with a Peppa Pig script. Parliament still hasn’t noticed.”Nina Wadsworth, stand-up comic from Brighton

“They replaced the Queen’s corgis with plush toys. I haven’t seen such stillness since Prince Andrew’s memory at a deposition.”Ricky St. John, London comedy circuit

“You’re posh when your prank is renaming the butler ‘Duke of Dishwasher’ and then writing a Wikipedia entry about it.”Tommy Bramble, author of Lords of the Laughs

“They glued googly eyes on Winston Churchill. Honestly, improved his odds of winning ‘Strictly.’”Jasmina Malik, BBC Radio 4

“The girls convinced William his Netflix password was BALDY123. I laughed. Kate didn’t.”Alex Grieve, royal biographer turned stand-up

“One time Charlotte entered tea service wearing a tiara, a Spider-Man costume, and a Scottish accent. That’s my gender identity now.”Freddie O’Mara, TikTok drag satirist

“They tried to prank Camilla with a fake spider. She didn’t blink. This woman married Charles voluntarily — nothing scares her.”Georgia Wrathbone, satirical columnist

“They’re tiny anarchists with good posture. Trotsky in patent leather shoes.”Sir Jonathan Mirth, retired court jester


Inside the Palace Panic Room

In response to the girls’ antics, the palace has reportedly instituted:

  • A new security clearance tier: “Threat Level: Teacup-Sized Menace”

  • Weekly psychological briefings for palace guards (“How to Maintain Dignity While Covered in Glitter”)

  • Royal Etiquette Bootcamp for under-12s, including modules such as “How to Sabotage Respectfully”

Yet the public adores them. A recent satirical poll conducted by the Daily Fail found:

  • 82% of Britons prefer the girls’ pranks over most royal traditions.

  • 54% want Charlotte to replace Rishi Sunak as PM.

  • 91% believe Mia Tindall could broker peace in Northern Ireland if given biscuits and juice.

Even foreign dignitaries are reportedly entertained. During a state visit, the Emir of Qatar was pranked into wearing a sash reading “Most Likely to Cry During Downton Abbey.” He thanked them and asked for a selfie.

Are These Girls Future Monarchs… or Agents of Revolution?

The House of Windsor has weathered scandals involving Nazi costumes, toe-sucking, and Epstein friendships — but never this level of joyfully chaotic toddler tyranny. Some royal scholars are split:

“They’re delightful. Every monarchy needs reform — why not start with a whoopee cushion?” – Professor April Tarte, Royal Studies Institute

“This is how the Romanovs started, you know.” – Baroness Dolores Snubbs, noted killjoy

“At least they’re not on OnlyFans.” – Anonymous palace aide, probably Prince Edward


Conclusion: The Future Is Glittery and Mildly Illegal

Princess Charlotte and Mia Tindall have proven that even within the gilded gates of monarchy, chaos can thrive — especially when wearing patent-leather shoes and monogrammed pinafores. While royal tradition emphasizes grace, poise, and dignified silence, this new generation is serving chaos, comedy, and corgi-based subversion.

Will they inherit the throne? Maybe.
Will they replace Big Ben with a fart machine? Almost certainly.

Until then, keep your valuables locked, your corgis close, and your butlers warned.
