There's less than three weeks left until the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton gives birth to the royal heir, and the entire world has their eyes waiting for the big day. The royal baby is expected to be born on July 13; after Prince Charles and Prince William, the baby is expected to be the next heir to the royal throne.
Kate will deliver her baby at St. Mary's Hospital in the exclusive Lindo wing; this is the same hospital where Princess Diana gave birth to Prince William and Prince Harry. The Lindo has been the preferred birthplace for the royal family over the years.
According to a report by the Huffington Post, the normal delivery package at the Lindo which includes an overnight stay would cost around 4,965 pounds. A two-night stay at a deluxe room, plus professional consultant's fee would cost more than 12,000 pounds. Each suite is equipped with satellite TV, a radio, Wi-Fi, a safety deposit box, a phone, and a fridge. There is a dedicated kitchen were meals are prepared fresh each day. And for those who want to give a toast to the royal baby's arrival, a list of wine selections is readily available.
The entire world awaits the baby's gender, as the royal couple hasn't made statements about it. Both Kate and William were said to have decided against finding out whether they're expecting a girl or a boy. But during Kate's recent and final public appearance before she gives birth, the Duchess of Cambridge was spotted wearing a powder pink coat at the annual parade marking the Queen's official birthday. Many have speculated that Kate maybe giving a hint to the baby's gender and that she may be actually expecting a little girl. Though pregnant, Kate has been seen publicly appearing in several royal engagements.
