In a brief statement, Kensington Palace officials said the Duchess of Cambridge was admitted at 6 a.m. local time Saturday at St. Mary’s Hospital. She traveled by car to the Lindo wing with Prince William.

The baby will be a younger brother or sister to Prince William and Kate Middleton’s first child, Prince George.

Royal officials are not expected to provide any more information until the birth, which will be announced on Twitter and Instagram.

According to new reports, Kate Middleton may not go in to labor until as late as May 5th.

Originally the Duchess of Cambridge was said to be due on April 20, and reporters and fans have been waiting at St. Mary’s Hospital in Paddington since April 15 for the birth of the new baby, but it looks like they could be waiting another week.

While Buckingham Palace has not confirmed an official due date for Kate Middleton, 33, the Duchess previously revealed she was due to welcome her baby in “mid-tolate April”.Kate Middleton labor 2015

When the second baby does arrive, the announcement will not mimic Prince George’s arrival in 2013.

While Prince George’s arrival was announced via a press release and an official proclamation, Prince William and Kate Middleton’s second child will make his/her grand entrance on social media.

After sending out an initial press release, the palace will reportedly announce the gender, the time of birth and the weight of the baby on @KensingtonRoyal on Twitter.
