Will it be a little sister or brother for Prince George? © James Whatling/Splash News/Corbis

We knew it! The royal couple have obviously been very busy after Prince George’s bedtime because the Duke of Cambridge has announced that he and the Duchess are expecting baby number two.

Unfortunately for the Duchess, the second time around isn’t any easier as she’s suffering from the same acute morning sickness as she did with Prince George. The Duchess is less than three months pregnant right now and the new baby is thought to be due in April 2015.

As with every royal baby, the punters have come out in full force. Elizabeth and Henry have emerged as frontrunners for the new baby’s name according to Irish bookmaker, Paddy Power, right off the bat at the announcement. Bets for the baby’s gender are also on.

But what does this mean for the line of succession? When Prince George’s new sibling arrives, the baby will be fourth in line to inherit the throne after George, William and Prince Charles. Poor Prince Harry though! The original spare heir has been pushed down to fifth spot. But don’t worry Harry, you will always have a special place in our hearts that no chubby baby can replace.
