Royal Baby #2 Is Coming & Twitter Is Going Nuts

by Daniela Cabrera

The day has finally come: According to BBC, Kate Middleton is in labor, and has been admitted to St. Mary's Hospital in London. In other words, we can officially say it — Prince George's younger sibling and royal baby number two is on its way! Yes, I am American born and raised, but that hasn't stopped me and millions of other fellow countrymen to be absolutely captivated by the lives and times of the British royal family. I mean, I don't think anyone is immune to a little royal drama. (I think The Royals is proving this fascination.)

Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, reportedly shared her due date as "mid-April to the end of April," and since then, fans have been anxiously awaiting. Now that it's been announced that Middleton is in labor — on May 2, which is not quite "mid-April to the end of April," but close enough! — people are taking to social media to express their well wishes.

Back in 2013, the adorable Prince George threw the world into a frenzy when his birth was announced, with a peak of 25,300 tweets per minute! So, it goes without saying that baby #2 is going to rival these numbers and be born into a world of admiration and lots of love.

Let's check out some of the reactions fans are having on Twitter so far, and hope that things don't get too much crazier once this baby is actually here.
