Royal baby will be born in same London hospital as Prince William - private Lindo Wing of St Mary’s Paddington & he will be at the birth.

The birth of William & Kate’s baby will also be announced on news wires, the Palace website and even on TWITTER!

Royal doctors Marcus Setchell & Alan Farthing - whose late fiancé Jill Dando was famously murdered - will deliver William & Kate’s baby.

Informed sources say despite intense speculation William and Kate still do not know their unborn child’s sex and have not asked to know.

A royal aide will take a royal birth bulletin to waiting car outside the hospital. It will be displayed on an easel at Buckingham Palace.

Sources say the palace will only announce the birth of the William@@ Kate’s baby once the Queen has been told.

Palace recognises royal birth is a time of national celebration but has asked for the media to respect William & Kate’s privacy.

Kate will be off royal duties on maternity leave. No engagements have been scheduled until further notice.

Prince William, currently a Search and Rescue Pilot with the RAF plans to take two weeks paternity leave.

To maintain the ‘theatre and tradition’ of the royal birth of a future monarch the announcement will be made in the old fashioned way.

Happy 14 Year Anniversary to the Earl and Countess of Wessex.

Hi! I remember reading some where that the Queen's children didn't have to bow/curtsy. Is this also true for her grandchildren? BTW, love your blog :)

Hi! This is one thing that has always confused me ever since the hullabaloo about it last year and I haven’t looked into it at all, so correct me if I’m wrong.

Basically, if a non-blood Royal is alone, without their spouse, they’ll have to bow/curtsy to a blood Royal. (e.g, If Kate was alone, without William, she would have to curtsy to Anne). But if she was with William, she wouldn’t have to. Everyone curtsies to HM & Philip.

Thanks very much, it means a lot. Thanks for the question! ♥x

Kate is said to deliver at St Mary’s Hospital where William was born, under Dr. Marcus Setchell’s supervision. They don’t know baby’s gender
