World gets first glimpse of Britain's royal baby boy - Hindustan Times

Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, carries her new born son, the Prince of Cambridge, into public view for the first time outside the Lindo Wing of St. Mary's Hospital, in London. (AP Photo) Britain's Prince William and his wife Kate proudly showed off their newborn baby son to the world for the first time on Tuesday, cradling the future king in their arms as they left hospital to go home. A smiling Kate told the massed ranks of international media that motherhood was "very emotional", while William said they were still choosing a name and joked that he already changed the baby's nappy. The new third-in-line to the throne raised a tiny hand above his white blankets but remained peaceful, despite deafening cheers from well-wishers and the shouts of photographers outside St Mary's Hospital in London. "It's a special time," said the 31-year-old Duchess of Cambridge, who was wearing a cornflower-blue dress with her brown hair flowing loose. "I think any new parent would know what this feeling feels like." The duke, also 31, told reporters that "he's got her looks, thankfully" as Kate playfully demurred, then added: "He's got a good pair of lungs on him, that's for sure." The royal baby's birth at 4:24pm (1524 GMT) on Monday sparked a global media frenzy, fuelled by the fascination that has surrounded the couple ever since they married in April 2011. Congratulations have poured in from around the globe for the baby, a great-grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II, who will one day reign over Britain and 15 other Commonwealth realms around the world. The newborn prince became quite the buzz on Twitter too as many, including celebrities, took to Twitter to express how they felt about the newborn. I'm still disappointed that the Half-Blood Prince wasn't displayed like Simba from The Lion King while 'Circle of Life' played. #RoyalBaby — Professor Snape (@_Snape_) July 23, 2013 Kate Middleton's Baby, Congratulations :) http://t.co/OO5x0yXeLS — Kim Kardashian (@KinmKardashian) July 23, 2013 Kate paid Princess Diana the ultimate tribute today without most of us noticing #RoyalBaby pic.twitter.com/LXr7THhEVL — Tom Stoneman (@tomstoneman) July 23, 2013 Bit late to #RoyalBaby party but was extremely cute how Prince William drives the car away! He definitely practised fitting that baby seat — Karl (@WiseKarl) July 23, 2013 Can't think of anything more appropriate than a gun salute for a newborn baby. #RoyalBaby — Kaj Lofgren (@kajlofgren) July 23, 2013 Kate initially held the baby as the royal couple emerged from the front door of the hospital's exclusive private Lindo Wing, before passing him to her husband, who was dressed in a blue shirt and jeans. The scene was reminiscent of when William was introduced to the world by his parents Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana outside the same hospital wing in 1982. Balding William joked that despite the baby boy's own thin coating of hair "he's got way more than me, thank God". Asked about changing the nappies of his son, who weighed in at a healthy eight pounds six ounces (3.8 kilograms) when he was born, the prince said: "We've done that already." "He's done his first nappy already," added Kate. The traditional names George and James have been favoured by bookmakers as fit for a king, but the royal couple gave nothing away. "We are still working on a name so we will have that as soon as we can," William said. via Top Stories - Google News http://news.google.com/news/url?sa=t&fd=R&usg=AFQjCNGmpLuISWhXraGR5x_kVVzWDKLq_w&url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/world-news/Europe/World-gets-first-glimpse-of-Britain-s-royal-baby-boy/Article1-1097306.aspx
