British media representatives announced the name and gender of the unborn child of Prince William and Kate Middleton. The details came to light after the Duchess of Cambridge's ultrasound diagnostics held at the 21st week of pregnancy. The second child in the family of William and Kate will be a girl.
Also, the journalists were able to find out that the couple had already decided on the name of the future princess. At first, Kate and William hesitated between the traditional British names Elizabeth and Mary, but later decided to name the child after their late grandmother, Princess Diana. When choosing, the initiative came from Kate, who is very inspired by the example of Diana and her charity work, so the Duchess believes that her name should live on. Sources say that the name of the unborn child was also approved by Queen Elizabeth II, who had a difficult relationship with Princess Diana.
Kate Middleton's second pregnancy became known in September 2014. The addition to the royal family is expected in April. The firstborn of the couple, Prince George, was born on July 22, 2013. He became the third in line to the royal throne and received the title of Prince of Cambridge.
