In case you missed it, Kate Middleton gave birth to a baby boy today in London and the internet can t stop swooning. The newborn Prince has yet to be named but is already trending on Twitter after giving his first official wave outside the Lindo Wing of St. Mary s Hospital this afternoon. And while all eyes were understandably on the tiniest member of the royal family, those paying close attention may have noticed a secondary minor miracle: Middleton s flawless hair as it caught the breeze just hours after her labor.
Stepping out in a poppy red Jenny Packham frock, Middleton was the picture of happiness and grace with a lit-from-within glow and her trademark brunette waves in tow. The new mom of three is rarely seen without a polished blowout and this afternoon s appearance was no exception. Middleton s thick long mane, which looked thicker and healthier than ever during her third trimester, may have had a bit of help—long time hairstylist Amanda Cook Tucker was rumored to be seen leaving the Paddington hospital this morning—but it s safe to say she had some help from the beauty benefits of pregnancy.
With sister Pippa rumored to be expecting this year, it s safe to say that the Middletons will be keeping aspirational lengths in the family.
