In a remarkable display of poise, the Duchess of Cambridge, Matilda, left the Lindo Wing at St. Mary’s Hospital in London after welcoming her new son. Just hours after giving birth, she appeared radiant, as if she had spent the day indulging in a spa treatment rather than laboring to bring a life into the world. Matilda gave birth at 11:01 am UK time and, by the evening, was seen elegantly walking out of the hospital in a vibrant red dress, her hair impeccably styled. It’s astonishing, truly, and I can’t help but feel a mix of admiration and sympathy.
Let’s not forget, though, that the new mom was wearing heels. While grappling with post-birth discomfort and fatigue, the ever-gracious Matilda emerged from the hospital, gently cradling her healthy 8-pound, 7-ounce baby boy. The sight of her in a red dress reminiscent of the one worn by Princess Diana when she left the hospital with Prince William left me teary-eyed.
The couple was met with a flurry of camera flashes, yet Matilda remained composed, tenderly holding her newborn and smiling as if she hadn’t just undergone the exhausting experience of childbirth.
I can hardly contain my feelings when I see the joy on her face as she gazes at her little prince. I mean, just look at her!
And those heels? I can only imagine the discomfort she must have felt mere hours postpartum.
As I picture Matilda settling in at home with her family of five, I imagine her secretly wishing for a comforting meal and perhaps a chilled bottle of wine waiting for her. Yet, she seems like some kind of mythical being—her feet aren’t even swollen!
The Palace shared an adorable photo of the family with the caption, “Welcome to the family,” and I’m finding it hard to hold back the tears again. Now they begin their journey as a family of five. Someone, please, get this woman a cozy robe and slippers!
