Prince Charles has also signaled that he is hoping for a granddaughter, which led some to speculate that he has some inside information.

The British monarchy has not welcomed a princess born this high up the line of succession for many years.

Princess Anne, Prince Charles’ sister, was born third in line in 1950.

Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, the daughters of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, were fifth and sixth in line at the time of their birth.
