Great news today! My 7th cousin, Prince William, is going to be a father! I'm very happy for my cousin and his wife!
Anyhow, The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting, and the media is already up in her business. I was watching the news this morning and that is what the news was about on every channel. Apparently the royal family was forced to make the announcement since Kate is ill and in the hospital. I feel bad that the whole world is now in her private business by knowing every detail about what's going on with her body. And I still don't understand why her being admitted to the hospital forced the palace to go public, but that was the reason given for such an early announcement. Most women don't tell their closest friends until they're three months along. How strange for the world to know when it's still so new to her!
The commentators made many comparisons to how this new child would live, in contrast to Prince William's upbrining in the spotlight... and also how Kate's experience would differ from Diana's. One reporter mentioned that William would be careful to make sure that history would not repeat itself, (I wonder how much control he has over that). I hope that is truly the case though.
