Queen Elizabeth II's legacy lives on.
The life of the late monarch, who died on Sept. 8 at the age of 96, was honored during a funeral service held at Westminster Abbey on Sept. 19. (You can watch here).
And in a sweet nod to her late great-grandmother, Princess Charlotte, 7—who attended the funeral alongside parents Prince William and Kate Middleton and older brother Prince George, 9—wore a horseshoe brooch pinned to her black coat. The Queen historically had a love of horses and the sport of horse-riding, which was passed down to the 7-year-old as well.
Kensington Palace confirmed the pin Princess Charlotte wore was a gift from her great-grandmother herself.
In fact, when Charlotte was around just 17-months-old, her mom Kate revealed, per ABC News, that just like the British monarch, her daughter was already "really enjoying her riding." Her Majesty also discovered her passion for horses at a young age, with the Queen visiting her first stable at 16 years old—which led to a lifelong admiration.
In fact, in 2014, Queen Elizabeth was presented with the International Equestrian Federation (FEI) Lifetime Achievement Award for her dedication to horse riding. "Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth is a life-long lover of horses who has inspired millions around the world," FEI President Princess Haya of Jordan shared during her speech presentation, per An Eventful Life. "She is a true horsewoman, who still rides whenever state business allows, and her knowledge of breeding and bloodlines is incredible."
As far as Princess Charlotte goes, she is among the youngest members of the royal family in attendance to honor the Queen.
