Though reports have claimed the Duchess is due on April 25th, this has not been confirmed by any official sources.

Kate will return to St Mary’s Lindo Wing in Paddington Hospital, London, where Prince George was also born, to give birth to her second child.

The late Princess Diana gave birth to her sons in the same hospital.

If the delivery does indeed fall during this timeframe, the new royal could share a birthday with the Queen (who was born on April 21st), or surprise his/her parents by arriving on their wedding anniversary, April 29th.

The new arrival will be the fourth in line to the British throne.
