FAMILY FIRST Prince William drops hint he’s STILL not decided royal baby name despite Albert ‘leak’ – but Buckingham Palace suggests announcement could come today


PRINCE William has hinted he and Kate are STILL not decided on a name for the royal baby – despite signs from palace staff that it could be announced today.
Four days after the tot was welcomed into the world, the Duke of Cambridge would only admit that he’s “working on it” – as speculation over the moniker grows.

The dad-of-three made the sheepish comment as he and Prince Harry opened a leisure centre in Marylebone yesterday – where he received a gift for his newborn son.
But William remained tight-lipped about the reveal, despite a technical glitch on the royal website suggesting that Albert was now the name of choice.
An official Royal.uk website after an “Access Denied” message appeared on a page for Prince Albert – as it similarly does for the tot’s siblings Princess George and Princess Charlotte.
The findings suggest a page may have already been built around the new prince’s name – although critics were quick to point out that Kensington Palace’s IT department might not be the first on the list to be told of the new identity.

The latest upheaval comes in four days of excitement, with the public bracing themselves daily for the reveal after the tot’s birth on Monday, April 23.
Previously punters were forced to wait just two days to learn the names of both Princess Charlotte and Prince George.
On Wednesday, it was thought the announcement had been suppressed so as not to jar with the sombre occasion of Anzac Day , which commemorates the Australian and New Zealand war dead.
Hopes that the announcement could finally be made today were fuelled after a palace source told Sun Online the Queen was away on a private matter.
The spokeswoman said: “She’s away privately” – suggesting the monarch could be paying a visit to her new great-grandson ahead of the big reveal.
