The world has seen the royal baby for the first
time as the future king left hospital with his
ecstatic parents on Tuesday evening, who
revealed they had not yet chosen him a name.
Prince William and Kate waved and smiled
broadly to the waiting cameras as they held their
prince on the steps of the private Lindo Wing at St
Mary's Hospital in London, 26 hours after he was
delivered, weighing 8lbs 6oz.
Speaking for the first time since giving birth, an
obviously moved Duchess of Cambridge said: 'It's
been very emotional. Any parent will know what
this feeling is like.'
As they left St Mary's carefully cradling their
precious child, the Duke of Cambridge followed
the steps his parents Charles and Diana took with
him 31 years ago, when he was born there on
June 21, 1982.
'He's a big boy, quite heavy. We're still working
on a name,' he told reporters, adding: 'Well he
has a good pair of lungs on him, that's for sure.'
Confirming that the prince was overdue, William
said: ‘I will remind him of his tardiness when he
is older.’
With a huge smile he then added: ‘He’s got her
looks thankfully’ to which the Duchess responded
‘No, no, no I’m not sure about that.’
The Duchess wore a lilac purple dress, with her
long hair falling in waves around her face. The
new father wore a blue open neck shirt rolled up
to his elbows with black trousers.
