All The Times Princess Diana Played By Her Own Rules

Birthing the princes

Traditionally, royal babies were born at home in the palaces, but Diana was the first princess to change this protocol. Princess Diana chose to deliver both Prince William and Prince Harry in the Lindo Wing of St. Mary’s Hospital.

Similarly, when it came to Kate Middleton giving birth to her three children, she too chose the Lindo Wing. However, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry had a much more private birthing experience with zero media coverage at the Portland Hospital.
