Royal Baby Appears in Pubic for the Firsts Time [Photos & Video]

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge emerged from a London hospital on Tuesday with their newborn baby boy, presenting the world with a first glimpse of the prince who is third in line to the British throne.

A smiling Kate, wearing a baby blue Jenny Packham polka dot dress, carried the future monarch outside St. Mary's Hospital in central London so that he could be photographed by the dozens of international press members waiting outside.

Kate, who said she felt "very emotional," passed the baby to her husband, who appeared relaxed and joked with reporters.

"He's got her looks, thankfully," William said. "He's got a good pair of lungs on him, that's for sure."

William added: "He's a big boy, he's quite heavy," and laughed when a reporter asked him about the baby's hair.

The couple re-entered the hospital to place the child in a car seat before re-emerging to get into an SUV. William drove the couple away -- palace officials said they will head to an apartment in Kensington Palace from the hospital.
