After spending a couple of nights in London, the duke and duchess travelled to their country mansion on the Queen’s Sandringham estate in the east of England.
Some reports suggest the royal couple did not wish to divulge the name of the new princess until after the Queen was told.
The birth of the new baby was marked earlier today (May 4) with a Royal baby Gun Salute at London’s Hyde Park.
