Royal Baby Watch

Years ago as a young girl I watched the "Royal Wedding" of Prince Charles and Diana, the Princess of Wales, I was enchanted. Their marriage was doomed from the start but I now know she wasn't the commoner as we were made to believe she had some Royal blood herself. The wedding itself showed every little girl that becoming a princess could happen to anyone. We loved this quiet lady, who smiled nervously and face reflected love for her prince. But Charles was made to marry a Spencer and not his true love Camilla so the adoration wasn't mutual. As a young adult Diana was in the limelight and would soon become the most photographed person on the planet. She fullfilled her "duty" to the thone by producing the heir and the spare, Prince William and Prince Harry. Diana introduced her sons to a world most royals knew nothing about and loved them immensely.

After Diana's tragic death , the young Princes were not to be hounded by the press at their schools, their schools became safe havens. While at the university Prince William met his future wife Catherine and fell in love. In 2013 Catherine and William produced the Heir, Prince George, who is third in line to the throne. Any day now the "spare" will be born. Hopefully the baby will be a "Princess" and named after her paternal grandmother Diana but that most likely won't happen since the Queen has a say in the matter more so than Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge. The Duchess has the love of her prince this time around.

*Bookies in the UK are betting on the gender and name of the 4th in line to the throne.
