The most popular baby reveal is without doubt the births of Princess Kate and Prince William's three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

Prince George arrived at 4.24pm on 22 July 2013, born in the Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital in London weighing 8lb 6oz. 

His sister Princess Charlotte was born at 8.34am on 2 May 2015 weighing 8lb 3oz, also at St Mary's Hospital in London. As Charlotte was delivered relatively quickly, the couple left the Lindo Wing in the late afternoon, just hours after Kate had given birth.

Prince Louis arrived on 23 April 2018 and the official statement from Buckingham Palace read: "Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge was safely delivered of a son at 1101hrs. The baby weighs 8lbs 7oz. 23 April 2018."

"I knew for myself I needed to prepare for this role of a lifetime in the most positive, stress free, and healthy way I knew how. There was no gotcha moment, no big paid reveal I had planned.
