Prince Charles is “hopeful” royal baby will be born soon

It seems Prince Charles is eagerly awaiting news of the royal baby’s birth, just like the rest of the world!

Catherine, the Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William are expecting their first child any day now and it seems the royal family are excitedly waiting for news.

Prince Charles has spoken out about the arrival saying he is “hopeful” his first grandchild will be born soon.

His wife Camilla, the duchess of Cornwall however was more forth coming saying that the birth will happen sooner rather than later.

“We are all just waiting by the telephone,” she said during a visit to Little Harbour children’s hospice at Porthpean.

“We are hopeful that by the end of the week he or she will be here.”

The pair joked with waiting crowds of people during their annual summer tour of the southwest English county and neighbouring Devon.

While William and Catherine’s private office at Kensington Palace has refused to confirm her due date, Catherine did let slip earlier this year that she was due mid-July.

The world’s media have been camped outside the Lindo Wing of St Mary’s Hospital for a fortnight awaiting the arrival.
