frogmore cottage has undergone a multi—million pound refit.dsor castle's private estate, it will allow meghan and harry to get used to parenthood well away from public view. let's ta ke let's take a look at buckingham palace where we are expecting the traditional announcement where an announcement is placed on an easel just close to the railings there around the palace. so that crowds gathered there can see that announcement. we expect that announcement. we expect that announcement in the next short while. but let me talk to royal historian and editor of the crown chronicles, victoria howard who joins us from leeds. this may is seventh in line to the throne. i guess you will have more freedom, but there will be expectation because he is the child of prince harry, a very prominent royal. absolutely, however, we will see this baby boy, they are department, he will take more of a role like princess beatrice, they work, but they do have titles. i think we can expect quite a normal life for this young royal. he won't be a prince, of course, unless

it is thought the birth took place at their new home, frogmore cottage in windsor, just as meghan hadhe birth at 5:26am this morning was a few days overdue. for both of them, it is the fulfilment of their wish to start a family. harry has seen the happiness william and catherine have found in their young children, and he's made little secret of his wish to emulate them. but unlike his brother and sister—in—law, harry and meghan are free of the responsibility of producing a child in direct line to the throne. it has given them much greater latitude, planning a home birth with a medical team of their choice. so no photo call on the hospital steps, instead sharing the news on their instagram account. the manner in which this birth has been handled is a measure of, in particular, harry's determination to control the way in which his family is presented. he and meghan clearly recognise the level of international interest. but it is their determination to manage things, as much as possible, their way. baby sussex will be seventh in line to the throne. he won't automatically be styled his ro

it's thought the birth took place at their new home, frogmore cottage in windsor, just as meghan hadted. the birth, at 5:26 this morning, was a few days overdue. for both of them, it is the fulfilment of their wish to start a family. harry has seen the happiness william and catherine have found in their children and has wanted to emulate them. but harry and meghan are free of the responsibility of producing a child in direct line to the throne, and it has given them much greater latitude, planning a home birth with a medical team of their choice. so no photocall on the hospital steps, instead sharing the news on their instagram account. the manner in which this birth has been handled is a measure of harry's determination to control the way in which his family is presented. he and meghan clearly recognise the level of international interest, but it is their determination to manage things as much as possible their way. baby sussex will be seventh in line to the throne. he won't automatically be styled his royal highness or designated a prince, but such things will be of little account

frogmore cottage has gone under a refit. way —— tucked away in the windsor estate it will allow them to live out of public view. let's speak to former buckingham palace press officer. to give more than we do?” know that as much as you do. that she has got into labour. they are playing at very close to the chest. they have made it very clear earlier in the year that this would be a private event and when they're ready to show baby sussex to the world, and to the media, they will do so, but they will do so in their own time and not earlier. but now she is a band that can take quite a while. it can take 12 hours, it can take three hours. —— now she is in labour. we just have to wait. just remind us what a difference it will be that we have to wait for the integral posting, or whatever it is, compared to traditional royal births? on instagram, we will get it on twitter. since he was born and his brother william was born, we have gone into social media and everything seems to be done that way. it is the quickest way of getting th

and frogmore cottage, just off the long walk where you are, it is no ordinary cottage. in a little secluded spotin cottage. it is in a little secluded spot in the grounds of windsor and if this was a home birth, as we think it was, it wouldn't have been any ordinary homebirth? the cottage doesn't do itjustice, ten bedrooms, millions spent on the renovation of this home on the windsor estate. it is already a very special place for the couple, it is where those beautiful engagement photographs we re beautiful engagement photographs were taken. and where they had their wedding reception as well. it is just a week or so shy from their first wedding anniversary and a lot has happened in a yearfor them. this place is a special part of their life. it will afford them the privacy they want in these early days and weeks. yet, it is so close to, as you say, the castle, to the heart of royal life here in the uk. we know the duchess' mother arrived from the united states a little over a week ago in anticipation of the arrival of her first grandchild and she will be spending these e

something else we think we know, we think we know they are at frogmore cottage. is not quite what you would call a cottage. it is a five bedroomed house and has got all the things you would probably love to have in your house, there is a yoga studio, apparently. it is soundproof because of course it is right under the flight of course it is right under the flight path from heathrow. and it is ina very flight path from heathrow. and it is in a very secluded spot, surrounded by the frogmore estate, which is pa rt of by the frogmore estate, which is part of the windsor castle estate. it isa part of the windsor castle estate. it is a wonderful place to bring up a child. the question of the actual birth, as you have warrant, we have to be careful about too much speculation, but we know meghan is a y°93 speculation, but we know meghan is a yoga fan, we know harry meditates. there has been discussion about whether a water birth or a hypno birth might be part of the plan. whether a water birth or a hypno birth might be part of the planm certainly could be. some mothers lo

it was thought that meghan had hoped for a home birth in frogmore cottage, which the family moved intoct she was taken to hospital to give birth, although this hasn't been officially confirmed. one possible option favoured by high profile couples is the portland hospital in london, which has had its share of royal births, including the princesses beatrice and eugenie, prince harry's cousins. with media from across the world and royal fans waiting for the first pictures of baby sussex, just as it was in may last year for their wedding, the global spotlight is once again trained on this historic berkshire town. sarah campbell, bbc news, windsor. so nothing else official is expected today, the plan was always that the family would have private time together, to get to know each other before any official images were released. so what we understand is that tomorrow a photographer and a cameraman 01’ that tomorrow a photographer and a cameraman or woman will be invited into the grounds of windsor castle to ta ke into the grounds of windsor castle to take those pictures of the new baby, along

all the speculation is that they wanted a home birth here just down the road in frogmore cottage wherelive in windsor. it could have been in hospital. they're not confirming that. they're trying to tread this line between giving the public the information they're desperate for and the details and having a private occasion. that's interesting that they're not revealing that. certainly very happy and all seems to have gone as planned. >> victoria, so you already have an american duchess. this baby will have dual nationality based on his mother being an american. an american prince, possibly, depending on how the queen comes down on that. how big a deal is that and how is that being received in the uk? >> well, i think people are equally excited on both sides of the pond. meghan has really ignited a passion for the royal family. people have long admired the queen, but there was a huge love affair with diana, and by extension, people over here have been very fond of harry. they viewed his antics in las vegas very differently perhaps to how the queen viewed those. i think people are delight

there's also rumors that she may have had a home birth at the frogmore cottage. we need to leaby the ba name. whatever his name may be, we to know that he is seventh in line to the british throne.s, and guy am interested to see, you know, with harry having red hair, is the baby going to have reathair, does th play into the name? we'll see in a couple of days. back to you. >> a lot of couples wait to see the babya because the nme presents itself -- >> looks like -- >> exactly. an earl -- >> i keep hearing it might not be a traditional name. they said itmight be arthur something -- >> you think one of the hollywood names? >> no. i think it might be a little bim ore traditional than cup or chair. >sprinkle. something crazy. >>> from a real kingdom to a fictional one, this week many "game of thrones" fans can't stop talking about last sunday's episode. >> this is nous becae of the storylineof but because coming up of coffee. during a celebration scene, a coffee cup, you see it prominently on the table. the goof may have been missed by the cast, editors, and sits at h

dad prince harry bounding up to tell the world's media the happy news outside their home at frogmore cottagethis little thing is absolutely to die for. i'm over the moon. >> adding that he and meghan had some time to think over names since the baby boy kept him waiting a week. megh meghan's mother has been with the duchess and her father said he was delighted at the news that he had a royal grandchild. and a statement from the new aunt and uncle, the duke and duchess of cambridge. they're overjoyed and looking forward to meeting the latest addition to the family. meghan and harry are expected to show off their newborn in two days' time. we think they'll also use that moment to announce his name, but for now the world breathe acai of relief at the happy news. julia mcfarland, abc news, windsor. >> it is exciting. >>> in other excitement, some newborns in the bay area got the royal treatment today. a nurse at van ness hospital did tiny little crowns to hand out. isn't that cute? they were meant to celebrate the babies' common birthday with the new member of the royal family. abc7 news caught u

>> well, all the implication is from everything we have seen it was at frogmore cottage, their new home that. it was slightly unclear, but it does appear that was the case. also interesting to hear harry at all speaking so immediately. that wasn't the plan. that was a very impromptu decision he made, trying to get that balance of allowing media access but also trying to have a private celebration, which is what he was very keen on. also pointing out that we will get the first pictures on wednesday, which everyone is holding out for, of course. this was another compromise. he didn't want to sort of bring this baby out in front of the world media as previous royal babies have been. he didn't feel that was appropriate. meghan didn't feel that was appropriate either. they're going to have a very small pool. so one tv camera, one stills camera, and one print reporter will be invited into the castle, and they'll be able to capture the new family for the first time. then, of course, the world will be poring over whether or not this little boy takes after his father or mother, as we always do.

it's amazing that harry and meghan managed to get to a hospital, have a baby and back to frogmore cottagein labor. that hospital is good when it comes to keeping secrets. >> baby archie has a ton of pressure on him. explain. >> reporter: archie has a lot of pressure on his little shoulders and we're seeing harry and meghan and they have drawn a line in the sand moving forward because he is although a member of the royal family, he is essentially a private citizen, but archie is the first baby of mixed race heritage to be born into the royal family. for historians this is very exciting. this is an amazing time in terms of the turn in the chapter i suppose for the royal family. members of the commonwealth will have a baby they can identify with. that picture of doria with the queen, prince philip and harry, that was symbol nick so maic in ways, and archie's only just almost two weeks ago. so thinking of that sort of burden i suppose, that historical burden carrying forward sets quite immense for those little shoulders and harry and meghan will do everything they can to protect him. >> such

we do know that the statement said that doria is there at frogmore cottage, which is across windsor castle behind me there, but they aren't telling us yet what, where it happened or the details, and obviously we don't have a photograph yet either. they have made pretty clear they want to spend private time before they make announcements, and as we know we're not going to see meghan walk out with the baby in the way we have done, at hospital, with others, other royal couples. you know, we'll see what we learn as the days go by, but i suspect they will manage the news, harry's very good at doing that. >> nbc's keir simmons. incredibly important private time. we all know. thank you, keir. good talking to you. >>> coming up, everybody, president trump sending a message to iran ordering an aircraft carrier strike to the persian gulf. the big question, why now. >>> and 2020 senator cory booker, a new plan on violence and sparking a debate on the 2020 presidential trail. should prisoners have a right to vote? hearing from prisoners who are already voting. >>> we'll be right back. ady vot >>> we'l

the royal couple also waiting about a half a mile down the road behind me at frogmore cottage on the groinds grounds of windsor castle. she's calm and happily awaiting her new arrival with prince harry. and mother doria by her side. this morning, daily mail releasing some sweet photos of the royal mother to be as a child. she's seen here giggling with a friend. her uncle sharing these photos with the paper. perhaps giving a glimpse of what baby sussex may look like. and where is baby sussex, you ask? meghan is almost officially a week late, past due date, which is when doctors here typically talk inducing a mother of meghan's age. but we're not there yet. today, we'll do what we have been doing the past seven days and happily await some news. we're going to hear from buckingham palace when she goes into labor and then there will be another announcement when she actually gives birth. fingers crossed. cinco de mayo might. i'm looking for anything that might bring baby sussex along. i'd be happy to drink a margarita on her or his behalf. >> the baby has a mind of its own. it's going to

confirmed, that the birth happened at the couple's home in windsor — at the newly renovated frogmore cottagecial announcement came this afternoon at buckingham palace. hundreds gathered to watch as a framed notice of birth was placed on display on a ceremonial easel on the forecourt of the palace. it says that the queen and the royal family are delighted to announce the safe delivery of the duchesses‘s sun — and says both megan and her child are doing well. let's get more on today's news from the bbc‘s royal correspondent nicholas witchell. sequence of events today have been rather curious. it was at two o'clock this afternoon the pilot announced she had gone into labour. but of course, actually that baby had been born in eight hours previously. that baby was born at 5:25am this morning and at two o'clock this afternoon the pilot says she went into labour early iris, so yeah, that's another measure of how determined they are to just keep everybody at bay to keep everybody sort of pushed it away and that is i think reflection particularly of harry's his suspicion verging at times on still sli

to happen is they are going to leave the castle at some stage behind the scenes to go back to frogmore cottagearry has that trip to the netherlands tomorrow to launch the invicta is of 2020. that was already planned. he is going to go there in a day. we've seen from the photo on instagram of prince harry, meghan, her mother, the queen and the duke of edinburgh. i'm sure meghan's mother will be helping a bit tomorrow. relatively low- key, the photocall earlier, in the setting. what i mean is it's not the same as what we saw with the duke and duchess of cambridge appearing in front of that great bank of cameras and photographers and reporters outside the hospital in london where their children were born. yes, very different but we always knew they would do it differently. catherine and william came out of the hospital and there we re came out of the hospital and there were hundreds of media from across the world. they brought their babies out to show photographers. this has been done very differently. we heard from harry on monday some hours after their baby was born. just a couple of cameras th

maybe sussex is now with his mother and grandmother at frogmore cottage, deep in windsor‘s estate. on names, alexander, arthur. huge excitement in the us media. ican arthur. huge excitement in the us media. i can hear some australian voices. huge excitement around the world. the changing of the guard will be playing, what else, congratulations. let's go to buckingham palace and kate williams. how much are they breaking with tradition? we do not know whether he will be the prince or not? as things stand, he will not be a prince because he is a great—grandchild of a monarch and not directly in line to the prince of wales. if charles becomes king, he will qualify. it is possible the queen may give the little baby the title prince now but as things stand, the baby will be earl of dumbarton. it may be that the royal couple will choose not to have a title at all. just as princes and's children. —— princes an. we also find out he will be the god pa rents, also find out he will be the god parents, willoughby serena williams, george clooney? we will expect to hear more in the next couple of

we are now learning that the baby was born at frogmore cottage, which is down the road from where i'dtions is what harry says we're not going to e? know right away, but wednesday they'll reveal the latest royal, likely on the couple's instagram account. the next big question is, what is the baby's name going to be? you still have time to get to the bookies. the leading contenders are james, charles, and philip. >> an exciteding morning. an exciting time ahead. you always remember these moments in your life. >> exactly. >> nothing better than being a parent. all right, ian, thank you. >>> coming up, presidential hopeful senator cory booker will join us here at the table. first on "cbs this morning," his new idea to keep guns out of the wrong hands. she's 75. the chances she's packing something are slim to none. >> senator cory booker coming up. lking around here in their hundreds. so how do you stay financially well for all those extra years? well, you have to start planning as early as possible. we all need to plan, for 18 years or more, of retirement. i don't have a whole lot saved u

we're hearing that he may have been born at a hospital in london and not at home at frogmore cottage as was widely expected. still waiting for the palace to confirm that one. what we can say with a lot of certainty is that there was no one happier about the birth than dad harry. on monday, new dad prince harry was beaming as he announced the birth of his son. >> i'm so proud of my wife. and as every father and parent would ever say, you know, your baby is absolutely amazing but this sort of thing is absolutely to die for so i'm just over the moon. >> reporter: sharing in the delight, laurie sparhawk from houston. roya nikkhah said it would be unlike any other. >> we have the first british-american prince born into the royal family. that's a landmark moment. i suppose it shows -- it reflects how international and diverse we are in society. >> the path of a newly born -- >> reporter: baby sussex is seventh in line to the throne but he won't be called his royal highness after titles were limited around a century ago. not that that matters to andrea thompson who traveled to windsor from
