Here are some new photos of Prince Harry and Prince William doing separate events in England yesterday, shortly after Duchess Kate stole everybody’s thunder with the news that Prince George will have a new brother or sister to terrorize shortly. Harry was doing an event ahead of the Invictus Games and William was at Oxford for the opening of the Dickson Poon building (or whatever). Here are some various royal-themed stories going around:
*William was “greeted with cheers” upon his arrival at Oxford. He seemed in a good mood, despite the fact that Kate was supposed to do this event with him. She was too sick to go though. But William downplayed her sickness, saying: “She’s feeling okay, thanks. It’s been a tricky few days. But we’re immensely thrilled. It’s great news, and early days. We’re hoping things just settle down and she feels a bit better. I’m going to look after her now.” He also chatted with a young woman holding a 4-month-old baby and William complimented her on the baby’s silence.
*There are bets on the sex and the name of Baby Cambridge #2. London bookmakers think it’s far more likely that Kate will have another boy, and the most popular boy names are: James and Arthur. If it’s a girl, the most popular name choices are Elizabeth and Victoria. I don’t think they would do Victoria, honestly. But they would totally do Elizabeth. Oh, and I forgot about this too, but Queen Elizabeth changed her father’s previous edict about daughters born to princes. It used to be that if William and Kate had a daughter, she would only be Lady ~~~ Cambridge. The Queen changed it so any daughter they have will totally be a princess (unlike Kate!!).
*Prince Harry will be pushed back in the line of succession. When Baby #2 is born, Harry will become the fifth in line and Prince Andrew will be bumped to sixth.
*Harry spoke about his new little niece or nephew at the Invictus event. Harry was hilariously passive-aggressive about it, saying: “It’s very exciting news. [George] will be over the moon…I can’t wait to see my brother suffer more. If it’s a girl, he’ll suffer even more. I’d love to see him try and cope with that.” HAHAHA. Then Harry had a moment of seriousness and said: “In all seriousness, I hope my sister-in-law gets better soon. The last time I saw her, she was okay. Feeling pretty poorly, but I think that’s to be expected. Luckily I’m not a woman so I don’t have to go through that. It’s a pretty horrible thing.” I really hope Kate doesn’t end up baby-blocking the Invictus Games.
