A critical blog about Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, and the rest of the British royal family

Oh dear, this week has been so hectic in royal watching land, and it’s only just now Wednesday.

My post on William and Harry’s interview in Diana, 7 Days got buried by the announcement that the Duchess of Cambridge is pregnant with her third child, but another piece of news that got sidelined was the name reveal of Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia‘s second child: Prince Gabriel Carl Walther.
Kate Middleton is pregnant with her third child, Kensington Palace announced this morning.
The BBC documentary Diana, 7 Days finally aired here in the US on Friday. I know many people are Diana-ed out at this point, but I thought it was worth talking about Prince William and Prince Harry‘s interviews for the program, especially since people have asked if I’m going to cover it. The 90-minute documentary includes interviews with other people, including former PM Tony Blair, but I am only quoting William and Harry. Reportedly, other royals were asked to take part, but they refused.
Princess Sofia and her newborn son left the hospital yesterday, September 1, and are now at home. The Swedish court released a photo of the Prince couple and their newborn leaving the hospital. Additionally, the families have released statements on the birth.
