British royal baby number two is a stunning daughter. Princess Kate Middleton and Prince William stood at St. Mary's Hospital in Paddington, London for a royal introduction for the press on Saturday morning. Kensington Palace live tweeted the news to the public on Saturday, May 2. The tweet has 45,925 Retweets and 38,326 Favorites. Her royal infant highness shares her birthdate with legendary soccer player David Beckham.
"Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cambridge was safely delivered of a daughter at 8.34am," tweeted Kensington Palace on its official Twitter account.
The new princess is healthy and weighs at eight lbs. Her royal baby highness donned a white crocheted bonnet and a white GH Hurt and Son Ltd. pattern shawl. She will leave the hospital on Saturday evening.
"Incredible news. I couldn't be happier for William and Kate. Happy to hear that mother and daughter are fine. It's not a bad day to be born," posted Beckham on Facebook.
What are the odds that her Royal Highness would be born on the same date as legendary soccer (football) player David Beckham? It seems that David Beckham and the newborn British Royal baby have much in common. They are both British, reside in London, and were born on May 2. The entire world is clamoring about the birthdays of these two major British celebrities. Who knows, perhaps the two will have more in common as royal baby #2 grows up. Maybe she will begin playing soccer.
The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, The Prince of Wales and The Duchess of Cornwall, Prince Harry, and other members of both families were informed at 3:10 a.m. One-year-old Prince George of Cambridge met his infant sister in the Lindo Wing of St. Mary's hospital at 8:36 a.m. Prince George returned to Kensington Palace at 9:31 a.m.
