this is an abc news special report, a royal baby. and good morning. we are coming on the air right now because there is a royal baby, a baby boy, for prince harry and duchess meghan. straight to winder with all the details. hi, amy. >> reporter: hi, george. finally the wait is over. just as i was headed to heathrow we got word duchess meghan had been in labor since the early morning hours here in great britain time. it was quite a labor. and we got word that she's given birth to a healthy baby boy, 7 pounds, 3 ounces. he is healthy and well. so is mom. they have said they will give us more details in the coming days. we know this was a pregnancy clouded in secrecy. they wanted privacy. we still don't know yet where meghan gave birth, if it was at home where a lot of people suspected she would be giving birth. we do know that, of course, prince harry was right by her

side along with her mother who has been here for quite some time awaiting the arrival of baby boy sussex and we have certainly so many people gathering to hear the word. i heard laughter as the news broke that they had indeed given birth to a baby boy. we're hoping to get more information about the name. we know that he will be seventh in line to the throne. and certainly this is a historic moment for the crown because this is the first american/british bi-racial royal ever to be born here in great britain. certainly a lot to celebrate as people are starting to hear the word on the streets in windsor. so much excitement and finally, george, the wait is over. >> and you get to come home. first, will is on the streets of windsor. hey, will. >> reporter: hey, george, how are you doing? it is a boy. everyone assembled around me is excited.

it is a bank holiday so the streets that are normally pretty sleepy perked up because of the holiday and even more when they heard the news. over my shoulder we think the boy being born. i was joking with amy as we staked out this royal birth all week that it would be a boy. i'm glad to have been proven right. i want to know if the prediction of it being named william comes to pass. i'm getting shaking heads in this crowd around me. everyone very excited. it's a happy day in windsor. >> it is a happy day. harry is speaking right now. >> this is my first birth, but it was amazing. absolutely incredible. i'm so incredibly proud of my wife. as every father and parent would ever say, your baby is absolutely amazing. this little thing is absolutely to die for. i'm over the moon. thank you very much. >> prince harry. >> that was prince harry right

there. for a little bit more on this, a week late but the boy is here. this little thing, as he said. we still don't know a name. >> there's always a little bit of a pause for the name. every parent wants to decide, get to know the little one first. good news the duchess and baby are doing well. that was on the couple's instagram. probably going to get a title but not a royal title. that would have to have a special dispensation from the queen and, of course, a very special baby, would have to apply to be an american citizen if they want to go that route and seventh in line for the throne. the product of the first marriage. and i think a huge celebration and the royals are relatable. >> they are. thank you very much. back to amy one more time, minutes after this official

announcement, baby boy sussex has been born. there you see it there, amy. >> reporter: yes. so exciting. we're learning a few more details. baby sussex was born at 5:26 this morning here, so the couple, as they said, they wanted private time, had about nine hours or so to really take in and soak in the joy of having just given birth to a baby boy and then you just saw prince harry sharing the exciting news. now we still get a wait here. we're all waiting for, of course, the name and that photo everyone wants to see of the historic baby, baby sussex -- baby boy sussex we can now say. >> about nine hours old. we'll have much more on this. wonderful. wonderful news. congratulations to them. we're all over here at the desk. we're all over here. but that's wonderful. >> yes, congratulations, it's a

boy. >> and they had nine hours, right, to really bond and have that private moment before sharing it and blasting it all over the world on social media. it's good that they took the time. >> now we wait for the name. maybe it will be william or albert -- who knows? >> hmm. >> you're not so sure about that? >> i'm not sure about either one of those. >> why not reggie? >> i have a feeling meghan will have her influence are we tnot yet.? at crystal geyser we put our mountain source on our bottle... that's cool. ...because we bottle at our mountain source. crystal geyser alpine spring water. always bottled at the mountain source.
