Duchess 'didn't say daughter'
New footage appears to show that the Duchess of Cambridge did not start saying "is this for our daughter" during a visit to Grimsby, but in fact, "is this for us, aww."
Royal birth odds slashed after Duchess 'lets slip sex of baby'
Bookmakers Ladbrokes have slashed the odds of the Duchess of Cambridge having a baby girl after she appeared to let the sex of the future royal slip during a visit to Grimsby yesterday.
The firm were already anticipating Kate and Wills' first child would be a girl, and after the Duchess of Cambridge's slip of the tongue to a well-wisher, the odds were quickly slashed to 1/2 (from 4/5).
That has left the chances of a boy to drift out to 6/4 for those who think Kate could be bluffing.
Elizabeth and Diana remain top of the list of possible names as joint 5/1 favourites (from 8/1). Victoria is currently chalked up as a 7/1 chance with Frances at 8/1.
