Prince George of Cambridge (George Alexander Louis;[fn
1] born 22 July 2013) is the only child of
Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, and
Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge. He is the only grandchild of
Charles, Prince of Wales, and
Diana, Princess of Wales. He is third in
line to succeed his great-grandmother,
Queen Elizabeth II, after his grandfather and father.
Announcement
and birth
Easel outside
Buckingham Palace. The announcement read: "Her Royal
Highness The Duchess of Cambridge was safely delivered of a
son at 4.24 p.m. today. Her Royal Highness and her child are
both doing well."
On 3 December 2012,
St James's Palace announced that the
Duchess was expecting the couple's first child. At less than twelve
weeks, the announcement was made earlier in the pregnancy than is
traditional because of her admission to hospital with
acute morning sickness.[2][3]
The Duchess was admitted to
St Mary's Hospital, London, in the early stages of labour on the
morning of 22 July 2013.[4][5]
It was announced that the Duchess had given birth to a boy at 16:24
BST (15:24
UTC) on 22 July, and that the baby weighed 8 pounds 6 ounces
(3.80 kg).[6][7]
The Duke was by his wife's side when she gave birth,[8]
and he took the full two weeks'
paternity leave from his job as an
RAF search and rescue pilot, allowed by the
Ministry of Defence.[9]
The birth took place in the Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital,
Paddington—the same hospital in which Prince William and his
brother,
Prince Harry, were born to
Diana, Princess of Wales, in 1982 and 1984, respectively. The
Queen's former gynaecologist,
Marcus Setchell, delivered the baby assisted by Guy Thorpe-Beeston,
Sunit Godambe and
Physician to the Queen
John Cunningham.[6][8][10]
The customary formal bulletin announcing the royal birth was
displayed on an
easel
outside
Buckingham Palace, although in a break with tradition the news was
first conveyed in a press release from Palace officials.[7][11]
Gun salutes signalled the birth in Bermuda,[12]
in London,[13]
in New Zealand,[14]
and in Canada;[15]
the bells of
Westminster Abbey and many other churches were rung;[16][17]
and iconic landmarks throughout the Commonwealth realms were illuminated
in various colours, mostly blue to signify the birth of a boy.[18][19][20][21][22][23]
Before the birth there was speculation that it would boost the national
economy and provide a focus for national pride.[24][25]
Welsh composer
Paul Mealor, who composed "Ubi Caritas et Amor" for the parents'
wedding, composed a lullaby entitled "Sleep On", with lyrics by Irish
composer
Brendan Graham. A recording was made of it by New Zealand soprano
Hayley Westenra as a gift for the baby.[26][27][28]
Commemorative coins were issued by both the
Royal Mint and the
Royal Canadian Mint to commemorate the birth;[29][30]
the first time a royal birth had been marked that way.[29]
The birth means that three generations of direct heirs to the throne
are alive at the same time, a situation which last occurred between 1894
and 1901, in the last seven years of the reign of
Queen Victoria.[31]
On 24 July, the day after the Duke and Duchess appeared outside the
hospital to allow the gathered press to see the baby;[32]
the Prince's name was announced as George Alexander Louis.[33][34]
The
birth certificate, dated 2 August 2013, was made in the standard
form, signed "William" by Prince George's father, as the "informant"
certifying the truth of the particulars entered in the certificate by
the registrar, including: Date of birth, 22 July, 2013; Name
and surname, His Royal Highness Prince George Alexander Louis of
Cambridge.[35]
Title and style
- 22 July 2013 – present: His Royal Highness Prince
George of Cambridge[36][37]
Under
letters patent issued by
King
George V in 1917[38]
and
Queen Elizabeth II in 2012,[39][40]
Prince George is, from birth, a
British prince entitled to the style of
Royal Highness. As with other children born to
royal dukes, Prince George is referred to by a
territorial designation taken from his father's title (as noted in
media notes released by Buckingham Palace on 22 July 2013),[36]
in this case "Cambridge" from his father's title of
Duke of Cambridge.[41]
Ancestry
Prince George's paternal ancestors are royal and
aristocratic. Through his paternal grandfather,
Charles, Prince of Wales, he is a member of the
House of Windsor and a male-line descendant of the
House of Glücksburg, a branch of the
House of Oldenburg, who ruled as kings of Greece and Denmark.
Through his paternal grandmother,
Diana, Princess of Wales, he descends from the
Spencer family, whose members include the
earls Spencer,
earls of Sunderland, and
dukes of Marlborough.[42][43]
He is third in the
line of succession to the thrones of the 16
Commonwealth realms,[44][45]
being preceded by his paternal grandfather and father.[8][46]
He is Queen Elizabeth II's third great-grandchild, after
Savannah and
Isla Phillips, and her first great-grandson.[47]

Titled royals such as George do not
normally use a surname. When one is needed for British royals,
it is usually
Mountbatten-Windsor,[1]
although others have been used in certain contexts.
