Congratulations to Peter, Autumn, and their families! I'm sure that she is a beautiful little girl.

I was watching the news here in Australia this morning and they were commenting on the fact that Mary makes sure that photos of Christian and Isabella were available to everyone.

Peter definitely went against royal protocol in selling exclusive access to his wedding.

A bit OT but i heard the royals weren't so much upset with the 'sharing' as that they didn't realize the personal inside photos would be printed.... Especially that the Queen and Prince William was upset because of shots of Kate-

Anyways back to baby girl Phillips- I like Allison Kelly Anne :)

Does anyone know if the newest member of the Phillips family received a gun salute? Do they still do this in the UK when a member of the Royal Family is born? I haven't been able to find out. Just curious.

Can't wait to see the pics of the new baby girl.

I don't know for sure but I suspect they do still do the gun salutes but I wouldn't have thought they would for Peter's baby (due to his not having a Royal title & the baby itself also not having a Royal title etc). I reckon they probably will only do salutes now when/if William has kids as they would be the next line of succession & all that.

I remembering reading that Peter, even though he was untitled and born a commoner he was still given a gun salute on the day of his birth. Still curious to know if his baby daughter received one.

I don't think,don't forget that Peter was at the time of his birth the son of Princess Royal and the first grand-child of the Queen,but now his daughter is not a daughter of Prince,despite the fact that she is of royal blood

No word yet on the name of the newest little member of the House of Windsor?

Lumutqueen · #90 01-01-2011, 01:47 PM

I doubt we'll find out the name until after the weekend if that.

windsorgirl · #91 01-01-2011, 02:22 PM

Shouldn't she have left hospital by now? I was hoping for some going home photos! I suppose if she had a cesarean the stay might be longer, but there has been no word of that.

Lumutqueen · #92 01-01-2011, 02:45 PM

We're not going to get any photos of them leaving the hospital, we'll be lucky to get one of the baby.

I think there will be one official shot of the baby, Peter (& probably Autumn), Princess Royal & the Queen (& maybe Prince Phillip). Just to show off to full extent the 4 generations aspect of it all, even though the baby may not have a Royal title as such. That way they could arguably get rid of the need for media to try & get the "1st pics" & so Peter & Autumn can go about their lives as they always have in relative peace & quiet. Could see it waiting until the Christening whenever that is.

Lumutqueen · #94 01-01-2011, 03:07 PM

Like I said we'll be lucky to get that, if they wished they could just pop off back to Hong Kong.

tiaratop · #95 01-01-2011, 03:26 PM

Why Hong Kong?

Lumutqueen · #96 01-01-2011, 03:26 PM

That's where they have been living since getting married.

**Humera** · #97 01-01-2011, 04:20 PM

Congratulations to the couple. Canadian media is reporting that their baby was born a dual British-Canadian citizen.

The papers are reporting that they have offically moved back and Peter is now working out the London office once again. The couple did say that they would live abroad until they decided to have a family. So hopefully that's true info. We probably won't see any pics until their little girl is christened eiither

I do agree that any info on the babies name won't be released until have the New Years weekend.

Christo's Girl · #99 01-01-2011, 09:18 PM

This is one couple I could see moving abroad again, congrats to them, what a lovely New Year's gift.

Thanks, I didn't think of it that way. It makes sense to me now.
