## The Duke And Duchess Of Cambridge Depart The Lindo Wing With Baby Wimbledon

Oh my GOODNESS, she got the family cheeks. She looks so much like George. For comparison: [The first official family pics](https://www.gofugyourself.com/celebs/prince-george/page/4?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), and [George's first appearance](https://www.gofugyourself.com/well-played-prince-x-of-cambridge-and-family-07-2013/the-duke-and-duchess-of-cambridge-leave-the-lindo-wing-with-their-newborn-son-8?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). I can't believe how peaceful she is, too. She must've had a very nice meal before they swaddled her.

## The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge with Baby Von Trapp

They are glowing, both of them. The dress is Jenny Packham, custom, in a buttercup pattern. It's very cheery. I wonder if she had a second option in another color in case it was a boy -- not that she couldn't have worn this then, too, but everything is so carefully managed that I bet she had at least one other option. I hope she and Packham played a joke on William and had the stylist bring over something sheer and plunging. "But it's for easy nursing," she would say, shaking her chest out of it. "Isn't it perfect? It'll be FINE -- they're just nipples!" And then once they took enough embarrassing pictures they would bring William some smelling salts.

## The Duke And Duchess Of Cambridge with Baby Humperdinck

NOODLECAKE. I suspect there's a lot of pandemonium inside the hospital around when Kate actually would leave, just because they probably wanted the baby to be good and asleep and then had to act fast before she woke up again. Not that anyone would begrudge a newborn its cries, but you know. SOMEONE would come up with a snarky headline about that.

(The blanket is GH Hurt and Son Ltd -- same brand as George, [and VERY similar, if not actually the same one](https://www.gofugyourself.com/well-played-prince-x-of-cambridge-and-family-07-2013/the-duke-and-duchess-of-cambridge-leave-the-lindo-wing-with-their-newborn-son-7?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io); I am not sharp of eye enough to tell that.)

And the full-length shot, although this is one day when I am not going to bang on her footwear ("Gilbert" by by Jimmy Choo, which I just now decided is named after Mr. Blythe). She just gave birth. Her feet probably are swollen. She has to hobble out of the hospital looking graceful and calm and like they just MAGICKED the baby out of her stomach. She can wear whatever she wants. Although as amazing as it is to me that she did it all this quickly, she does seem to be in high spirits, hale and happy.

And Kate's hair is typically shiny and has been curled at the end. You know, hospitals and enterprising hairstylists could make a MINT offering blowout services to tired new mothers who just want to feel like themselves when they leave. That really, really ought to be a thing people offer. Imagine how much a lady might pay.

That Bobby is like, "I have been standing here for SO MANY HOURS WAITING FOR THIS and I CAN'T EVEN TURN MY HEAD. STAY COOL, SELF. STAY COOL."

I assume they're looking up at news copters, or something, although there was a point where I wondered if they were worried it was raining or going to rain. Maybe Harry is mooning them from a window across the street.

"Harry wants us to name her what? No. We are ABSOLUTELY NOT naming her Oh Edith Trousers von Eurovision. And NO SCRUNCHIES."

The holding of hands is very sweet. I wish they did that more often. I mean, he might officially be doing it to help her down the stairs, but still. It's really nice.

"Peace out. Sorry so brief, but I've just had word that George has climbed up on the mantel again so I'd best get home."

## Royal Fans Queue To See Official Birth Announcement At Buckingham Palace

When Jess and I did our Buck House tour, we stayed late enough chatting up the tour guide that she escorted us out the front -- meaning we took the very same walk that the people did this morning when they posted the birth announcement. It was EXTREMELY EXCITING and special and it's fun to see all the hubbub around it again today.

[Well Played, Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and Princess Charlotte Elizabeth DianaAnd she is here: Baby Oates Costello Peele Joon Hammerstein Recreation. And she is no more a spare than any of them are. She's her own person, and even with the tongue-in-cheek Heir and Spare gag, we hope she doesn't ever feel superfluous -- and, indeed, the fact that she's probably not going to have to wear any hand-me-downs ought to help (unless Sophie Wessex trucks over a bunch of Lady Louise's things). It's very exciting. I'd have been THRILLED if George got his own Harry, but the idea of him tugging on his little sister's pigtails is pretty irresistible too. Anyway, the UK custom is for healthy moms and babies to be released a bit sooner than over here, but even so, the erstwhile Kate Middleton came out about ten hours after delivering the baby -- and had to do it in public, with nary a wince nor a whimper, lest her birth pain become world news. That takes some guts. Hopefully now they can all relax for a bit before the summer Christening, slated to happen before the Queen alights to Balmoral. If you missed it, here is George's hospital arrival, and here is Fug Nation's Speculative Naming Post.\* \[\*I edited this Monday morning to include Princess Charlotte's actual name, now that we know it. Not that Princess Oates doesn't have a melodious ring to it- J\] \[Photos: Getty, Fame/Flynet\]![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2015/05/prince-william-kate-middleton-duchess-cambridge-royal-baby-girl-471960560.jpg)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/well-played-duke-and-duchess-of-cambridge-and-baby-girl-05-2015/)
