Prince George of Cambridge (George Alexander Louis;[fn 1] born 22 July 2013) is the first, and so far only, child of Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and his wife Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, as well as the only grandchild of Charles, Prince of Wales, and his first wife Diana, Princess of Wales. He is third in line to succeed his great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, after his grandfather and father.

Announcement and birth

Royal family of
the United Kingdom and the
other Commonwealth realms
Badge of the House of Windsor

On 3 December 2012, St James's Palace announced that the Duchess was less than 12 weeks pregnant with the couple's first child. The announcement was made earlier in the pregnancy than is traditional because of her admission to hospital with hyperemesis gravidarum.[2][3]

The Duke took two weeks' paternity leave allowed by the Ministry of Defence.[4] The Duchess was admitted to St Mary's Hospital, London in the early stages of labour on the morning of 22 July 2013.[5][6] A baby boy was born at 16:24 BST (15:24 UTC) on 22 July, weighing 8 pounds 6 ounces (3.80 kg).[7] The Duke was by his wife's side when she gave birth to the child,[8] which took place in the Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital—the same hospital in which Prince William and his brother, Prince Harry, were born to Diana, Princess of Wales, in 1982 and 1984, respectively. The Queen's former gynaecologist, Marcus Setchell, delivered the baby assisted by his successor, Alan Farthing.[8]

The customary formal bulletin announcing the royal birth was displayed on an easel outside Buckingham Palace, although in a break with tradition the news was first conveyed in a press release from Palace officials.[7][9] Gun salutes signalled the birth in Bermuda,[10] in London,[11] in New Zealand,[12] and in Canada;[13] the bells of Westminster Abbey and many other churches were rung;[14][15] and iconic landmarks throughout the Commonwealth realms were illuminated in various colours, mostly blue to signify the birth of a boy.[16][17][18][19][20][21][full citation needed] Gibraltar also celebrated the birth with a gun salute, Union Flags flew from all public buildings[22] and as a first in local history, the wife of the Chief Minister Justine Picardo[23] was the Reviewing Officer.

The pregnancy was described as a source of British national pride.[24][25][26] Welsh composer Paul Mealor, who composed "Ubi Caritas et Amor" for the parents' wedding, composed a lullaby entitled "Sleep On", with lyrics by Irish composer Brendan Graham. A recording was made of it by New Zealand soprano Hayley Westenra as a gift for the baby.[27][28][29] The Royal Mint produced 10,000 sterling silver crown-sized £5 coins and 2,013 22 carat gold sovereigns to commemorate the birth. It was the first royal birth to have been marked by the issue of a coin.[30]

The birth means that three generations of direct heirs to the throne are alive at the same time, a situation which occurred last between 1894 and 1901, in the last seven years of the reign of Queen Victoria.[31]

On 24 July 2013, the Prince's name was announced as George Alexander Louis, a homage to Queen Elizabeth's father George VI[32][33].

Title and style

The prince's full title and style is His Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge.

Under letters patent issued by Queen Elizabeth II in 2012 (updating an earlier set issued by George V in 1917 [34]), the baby, as a child of the eldest son of a Prince of Wales, is a Prince and is entitled to the style of Royal Highness.[35][36]

As with other princes born to royal dukes (as well as Princes of Wales), Prince George is referred to by a territorial designation taken from his father's title (as noted in media notes released by Buckingham Palace on 22 July 2013),[37] in this case "Cambridge" from his father's title of Duke of Cambridge.

Line of succession

Prince George is third in the line of succession to the thrones of the 16 Commonwealth realms.[38] He is preceded by his paternal grandfather and father.[8][39]

Ancestry

The Prince's paternal grandparents, Charles, Prince of Wales and Diana, Princess of Wales, are of royal and aristocratic ancestry respectively. He belongs to the House of Windsor. The Prince's maternal grandparents, Michael Middleton and Carole Middleton, are commoners.[40][41]
