You all know I’m not too keen on royal news and don’t really get the obsession over the royals, but everyone is talking about it and babies are cute, so I thought I’d let everyone know that Kate Middleton gave birth to her baby boy.

They’ll announce the baby’s name in the coming days. (Word has it they’re floating Albert or Arthur. I’m not a fan of either, but I’d definitely vote Arthur.)
For those wondering, the newest baby is fifth in line of succession. It’s now Prince Charles, Prince William, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and THEN the new baby.
Royal history has been written today: for the first time, a British Prince will not precede his elder sister in the line of succession to the throne. This is a result of the Succession to the Crown Act from 2013. #RoyalBaby #RoyalBaby3
