But nearly ten years later, Kate’s gynaceologist Sir Marcus Setchell – who delayed his retirement for the special event – has confessed new details about Prince George’s birth.
Marcus snuck into the hospital unnoticed “through the tradesman’s entrance” in the early hours of the morning. During the birth, he was joined by two other gynaceologist’s Alan Farthing and Guy Thorpe-Beest.
“I think what I tried to do at Prince George’s birth was to keep reminding myself that actually this is just another baby with parents who are likely to be having all the same emotions and pains and discomforts as all the people I look after,” he told The Telegraph.
Prince William then called his grandmother, the late Queen Elizabeth II with a specially encrypted phone to reveal the exciting news.
Early in the pregnancy, Kate was diagnosed with hyperemesis gravidarum and required hospital treatment but following the birth of her first child, she was “relieved.”
“Amazing, amazing. It is extraordinary as I’ve said. How can the human body do that? It is utterly extraordinary, actually. And he was very sweet. And also sort of relieved that he was a happy, healthy boy,” she told Giovanna Fletcher.
