The Duke of Cambridge’s cousin Peter Phillips has spoken out about what great parents William and Catherine will make.
Peter, who is Princess Anne’s son, said the whole royal family was excited about the new arrival.
“They will make great parents and it’s great to be able to welcome another child into the family, if not from a selfish perspective for my two girls to be able to grow up with a playmate,” he told CNN’s royal correspondent.
With the little prince or princess due any time now, the Duke and Duchess are excitedly preparing for the birth of their first child and the third in line to the throne.
Peter has no doubt that the Duke and Duchess will ease into parenthood, even as the world eagerly watches on.
“He or she will be under a great deal of scrutiny,” he said.
“That being said, both of the baby’s parents are used to that and I think there is the structure and infrastructure around them all to be able to protect them to a certain extent.”
The child, whose royal title will be HRH Prince or Princess of “name” Cambridge, is officially due on July 13th. Journalists are already on constant watch outside St Mary’s Hospital, where Catherine is due to give birth.
