Happy Day! A story that illustrates the time difference between London and the headquarters of Anglotopia. While I was sleeping, the Duchess of Cambridge went into labor and had a beautiful baby boy before I woke up, as reported by the BBC just now.
The Duchess of Cambridge has given birth to a baby boy! The child, whose title is HRH Prince of Cambridge, is fifth in line to the throne (sorry Harry, you’re bumped further) and the Queen’s sixth great-grandchild.
The new arrival, who is the third child of Catherine and the Duke of Cambridge, weighs 8lbs 7oz.
A Kensington Palace statement said Catherine and her new son are “both doing well”. Congratulations to the happy couple! We’ll publish more details as they become available! The most important unknown information is the name. Stay tuned!

I read the bookies’ odds on favorite for a name is Arthur. That sounds so staid. I hope the Duke & Duchess include Phillip in the name of their new baby boy.
Absolutely! I want the wee boy to be named PHILLIP JAMES. He could have the nickname of “PIP”, for he was certainly a GREAT EXPECTATION!
I am hoping the HRH Prince of Cambridge will be named James Philip Arthur.
