Royal kids' most adorable moments in 2020

By Heather Cichowski
We might not have gotten to see royal kids as much as usual in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic and social distancing measures, but when we did see young royals, they were always guaranteed to warm our hearts.
There were many adorable moments with royals around the world, including Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis showing their support for front-line works during the battle against COVID-19. We were also treated to new portraits as the next generation of royals turned a year older. They're growing up so fast!
