This BBC newsreader’s reaction to Pippa Middleton giving birth is the source of great hilarity this evening.
Earlier today, it was announced that Pippa Middleton and James Matthews had welcomed their first child, a baby boy.
BBC newsreader Simon McCoy delivered the news that Pippa had given birth, and wait for it because his pause is quite possibly the best bit, to a ‘baby’.
In fact, he can’t quite get his head around the fact that she’s given birth to a baby and gets a fit of the giggles which makes the clip even funnier.
It seems that with yesterday’s announcement that there is another royal baby on the way and more baby news today, James couldn’t fathom the latest information at all and we can’t help but empathise with his efforts to control his laughter.
Check it out for yourself below and of course, people had to take to social media to share their thoughts.

Got to love Simon McCoy. The fact that he clearly doesn’t give a fuck about most of the things he has to report is a joy. lol https://t.co/mPew3rbnXV

It’s scientifically proven than royal family news is only bearable when delivered by Simon McCoy https://t.co/2xKx8ddaKm

This isn’t the first time Simon’s coverage of the royal family has resulted in multiple lols as the very same thing happened after the birth of Prince George in 2013.
It seems like a fitting time to revisit BBC’s Simon McCoy’s coverage of the birth of Prince George #royalbaby https://t.co/ueK5LJVIgf
