New Royal baby?

Question

I see that Prince Edward and his wife have had another baby. I didn't even know she was pregnant. Did anyone else know?

Answer 1

Well, this is how many second generation prince/princesses?  It's kind of like the third child in an ordinary family....no photos.  You shoot rolls and rolls of the first child.  Lots of photos of the second.  Then the third kid gets, like, group photos at Christmas.  

Anne's kids, first of the generation, huge publicity.  Diana's kids, well, the heir and the spare, tons of publicity.  Andrew's kids: well, we know their names at least.  Edwards kids:  yawn.  we're all bored of it.  Bring on William's bride and babies!  we might generate a little interest there.

Answer 2

It wasn't a secret, but the press coverage was low key.

Happy Holidays!

Answer 3

I did not know the Princess was pregnant.

Although I have acted as a surrogate for the Royals in the past ( as some of them have been castrated in order to avoid the "insane" gene), I can not take credit for this little bundle.  

Edward either took the genetic testing and passed or chose to completely ignore it and so he is on his own for this one.

My  confidentiality agreement does not allow me to divulge anything further at this time and besides, there is British Intelligence Service that is not known to miss a target.

Answer 4

I"m not surprised that they kept this quiet. With Princess Louise, Sophie had major, life-threatening obstetrical problems and could easily have died. Under the circumstances you couldn't blame them for keeping this under wraps until a successful outcome was known.
