Within hours of giving birth at 11.01am on Monday, the mum-of-three looked immaculate as she was joined by husband Prince William to briefly introduce their new bundle of joy to the world.
The new prince – whose name has not yet been made public – also met his excited older siblings Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
And photos of the three children, each taken on the day they were born, shows how they had different reactions to their first glimpse of the limelight.
Hundreds of well-wishers had been waiting outside the Lindo Wing, and their patience was rewarded on Monday afternoon.

Like his sister Charlotte, the new Royal baby slept throughout his first public appearance – George was a little more agitated and could be seen moving his hands.
The youngest prince was heavily wrapped up for his brief introduction, with just his face and hands visible.
He weighed in at 8lb 7oz – heavier than both George, who was 8lb 6oz, and Charlotte, who weighed 8lb 3oz.
Later, the Royal couple emerged from the Lindo Wing again with their child in a baby carrier.
The princes fingers could be seen moving before William placed him in the back of their car, with his mother, before driving back to Kensington Palace.

He also joked to waiting reporters about his wifes speedy birth, telling them: We didnt keep you waiting too long this time.
