While royal fans and experts alike speculated that Markle was due in April or early May, the news caught the world by surprise on Monday, kicking off a week of royal baby fever.

In an unexpected move, Harry stepped out onto the grounds of Windsor Castle following his son’s birth to speak with the press, hinting at the fact that royal baby photos would come soon, and speaking about how cute the baby is.

“We're still thinking about names. The baby was a little overdue so we had some time to think about it. But we'll be seeing you guys in two to three days time so you can see the baby," he told reporters. "I haven’t been at many births. This is definitely my first. It’s incredible. I’m so incredibly proud of my wife.”

Following the royal baby’s birth, Prince William and Kate Middleton shared their excitement for their nephew in an official Kensington Palace statement.
