“I think they will make wonderful parents and hope they enjoy parenthood. I’m glad both mother and baby are doing well and wish them all the very best.”
“It would be fantastic to see the new prince visit Lincolnshire in the future, and it would be a huge honour to welcome him to West Lindsey especially.”
