George's Trip To The Farm

Wednesday 15th April, 2015


Prince George was recently seen at Snettisham Park petting zoo and farm with his heavily pregnant Mum Catherine. 

Catherine, who is due to give birth to the new Cambridge prince or princess sometime this month was enjoying spending time with her firstborn at the farm not far from Anmer Hall.

George who is now 21-months-old enjoyed playing with other young children and farm animals. He was even spotted bottle feeding a piglet. 

The little prince was warmly dressed in a navy blue puffer suit.

Photos and witness accounts appear in this weeks edition of the Australian weekly, New Idea.

Arrangements Outside St Mary's Hospital Underway

Police, the palace and hospital staff are this week starting to erect parking barriers and media pens outside St Mary's Hospital in Paddington. The Duchess Of Cambridge is due to give birth to her second child in the next two weeks at The Lindo Wing. 

Kensington Palace has already asked the media to stay away from the hospital until an official tweet is sent to media outlets once The Duchess is in labour. 

The Palace, on behalf of Catherine and William, has passed on thanks to wellwishers:

"They know that people are excited that Prince George will soon have a little brother or sister and it means a great deal to them that so many will be celebrating this important moment for their family,"

Countdown To Baby Cambridge!

Monday 9th February, 2015


Prince George with Catherine and William
With the new Baby Cambridge due "sometime" in April, the countdown to the birth has begun. 

As with big brother George, the new baby will be born at The Lindo Wing, St Mary's Hospital in Paddington.

The Lindo Wing (est. 1937) is a private facility within the greater St Mary's Hospital. Here patients enjoy a more bespoke experience and have their own consultant-led care but if needs be, access to the teaching hospital expertise and neonatal unit is available. 

Other royal babies to be born here: 
  • Prince and Princess Michael of Kent's children Lord Frederick (1979) and Lady Gabriella Windsor (1981)
  • Princess Anne and Captain Mark Phillips son Peter (1977) and daughter Zara (1981)
  • The Prince and Princess of Wales' sons Princes William (1982) and Harry (1984)
Fees for the hospital birth range from GBP 5215.00 for a normal delivery (first 24 hours) up to GBP 6745.00 for a caesarean section. 

Additional nights are GBP 945.00 (superior), GBP 1155.00 (deluxe) and prices for suites are available upon request. 

New parents are offered Champagne to toast their baby's arrival. Rooms include internet, ensuite bathrooms, fridge, a fully-reclining chair for Dad to stay overnight as well as support from specialist midwives and maternity nurses.

The only problem for Catherine and William will be the noise of well wishers and media outside the hospital!
