Kate Middleton could pop at any moment, but the royal family is prepared to stick to tradition no matter what.
But with a twist of course!
When the little bundle of joy is born at St. Mary’s hospital, a person from Kensington Palace will hand an envelope to a member of the royal family to take to Buckingham Palace.
Then, the same wooden sign that announced Prince William’s birth will be posted on a wooden easel at Buckingham Palace. At the same time, a digital announcement will be released, and the world will learn the baby’s sex, which the parents (apparently) won’t even know until it’s born!

Prince William dutifully attended the annual Order Of The Garter Service in Windsor. He cheekily stuck his tongue out at spectators after someone remarked, “_______________________________________!”

Kate Middleton just cannot catch a break!
Her life is pretty much an open book, and now even her underwear is gossip fodder!
British lingerie designer Lorna Drew has outed the Duchess of Cambridge's penchant for lace-trimmed maternity knickers, going so far as to point out exactly which set Kate wears underneath all those pretty coats!
The powder blue satin "Alexa" bra and briefs (below) were sent to the royal mama-to-be by the designer herself, who received a sweet thank-you email in response!
Lorna said:

Prince Philip is made of tough stuff!
The Duke Of Edinburgh finally returned to Windsor Castle after his stint in the hospital! And it seems he is just about fully recovered already!
Not only did the Duke walk out of the clinic under his own power- he couldn't get out of there fast enough! A source close to the palace says:

Prince William and Prince Harry were spotted playing some polo together!
It was just standard royal shenanigans… those royals sure do love their horse sports.
The two gentlemen got their polo on at the International Audi Polo in Beaufort, Gloucestershire just yesterday, and it was quite a sight!

Great news!
Prince Philip recently underwent an exploratory surgery at the London Clinic, but according to his son Prince Charles, things are looking up!
Princes Charles, William and Harry all flocked to the hospital on Friday to see Philip, and on their way in, reporters asked how he was doing. Charles smiled and replied:

Prince William isn’t afraid of public transportation!
The royal jumped onto a Virgin train headed to London from Anglesey yesterday, and though he may have had a first-class ticket, it’s nice to know this dad-to-be is happy to travel with le common folk! Even if escorted by security, HA!
Will looked hunky as ever in his blue, collared shirt. Better yet, the sight of him carrying that duffel had us…well…swooning as usual. DUH. And is that a Barbarians FC rugby logo we see?!
Now, with wifey Kate closing in on her due date, we hope this is the last trip Will will take until the royal baby’s birth!
