London - Prince William's wife Kate was admitted early on Saturday to a London hospital for the birth of the couple's second child, who will be fourth in line to the throne and the fifth grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II.

In a brief statement, palace officials said the Duchess of Cambridge was admitted at 06:00 local time on Saturday at St Mary's Hospital. She travelled by car to the Lindo wing with William.

The baby will be a younger brother or sister to William and Kate's first child, Prince George, who was born July 22 2013 at the same hospital. William, who is on leave from his job as an air ambulance pilot, was at his wife's side in the hospital, as he was for George's birth.
