Lady Kitty Spencer's father is author Charles Spencer, Princess Diana's youngest brother.

In the throwback snap she uploaded she can be seen wearing a school summer dress with her hair tied back similarly to the way Princess Charlotte wears her hair.

She is also wearing shoes similar to those Princess Charlotte wore in the pictures taken on her first day of school.
