The Duchess of Cambridge’s Australian cousin says Kate is having a girl who will be named Elizabeth “in the next few days”.
Lillian Lowers, 72, from Gilgandra in country NSW, has given her predictions for the upcoming royal birth.

Despite having never met Kate — who is her first cousin once removed (Lillian and Kate’s mother Carole have the same grandmother) — Lillian has spoken extensively about the next heir to the British throne.
“I think it is going to happen in the next few days, anywhere between two in the afternoon and just before 12 at night,” she told the Daily Telegraph.
“It is going to be a girl. It will weigh under five pounds (2.26kg). I don’t think (they will) pick a peculiar name. I’ve got a feeling they will call her Elizabeth.”
Lillian thinks Kate will be a great mother because she has the same way with children William’s mother Princess Diana was famous for.

“I think she will make a marvellous mother. I don’t know; it is something in her face – and she has got that attitude with children when you watch her on the television,” she said.
“No she doesn’t (seem like a regular royal). She just acts natural. Nothing has gone to her head. She is a very lovely person. I could sit and listen to her for hours. I used to love Diana.”
