kensington palace, a royal residence, they have all the space outside in the gardens. they can run around. >> reporter: then there is buckingham, the 775-room home where queen elizabeth reside and where he will eventually live when he takes over the throne. there is sandringham over 5,000 trees and wetland where the royals traditionally spend christmas with its 200-person-plus staff. and balmoral, the sprawling 50,000 acre scottish castle where royals summer. >> the queen spends her summer at balmoral. >> reporter: the prince yet to be named won't have to worry about transports, with the finest prams and carriages. >> kate has been telling people she bought the trendiest pram around, the bugaboo. they can see lots on the streets of kensington at the moment full of yummy mummies pushing them along. so, kate will join the bugaboo crew when her baby is born.

>> reporter: but that ain't nothing compared to what likely comes later. and we are not just talking horse and carriages, but the fancy sports cars like maybe the british made aston martin. and then the fame. third in line to the throne will be stepping out in style. he will undoubtedly be the most photographed baby on earth. photographers tripping over his every coo. and this royal will not just be a local celebrity, but an internationally known statesman, even in the more reserved mold of dad william or maybe a bit more shall we say risque like uncle harry. but wait -- we're not there yet. first he has to become a man. and for that, there will be help. as every generation of royal has had, a nanny, at least part time, and of course, eventually a staff at his disposal including full time security detail. as for schooling this royal will have access to the best of education. but he is expected to stay close to home until high school just

as william did. and then there is the bling, this young royal will oversee the crown jewels collection valued at as much as $30 billion. that comes later. royal watchers say don't expect kate to make jewel-encrusted onesies. >> this baby will not be just dressed in designer outfits. i mean, let's face it. it's a baby. >> reporter: access to wealth and help doesn't mean kate and william will not be involved parents overseeing the day-to-day life of their boy. >> yes, you will see william change a diaper or two. >> reporter: one thing we can count on the baby will inherit a royal passion for animals as queen elizabeth loves her horses and kate and william love polo ponies and pooches. the puppy they adopted last year expected to be a loyal royal companion to the new baby in months and years to come. whatever life has in store for the prince, he will likely be

surrounded many rooms, a topnotch staff, loads of toys and some royal love. >> all right. brings us to the facebook question of the day -- >> we want to know what parenting advice would you give will and kate? >> hard to give advice when you are not a royal and they are. my advice, follow diana's lead. the way she raised the two. she made sure they saw homeless shelters, soup kitchens and another side of life. they knew wow we are privileged. this is not the way life is for everybody. she did such a great job. >> want to really quickly say, throughout this hoopla. everybody keeps saying why do we cover this? why are you giving it so much attention? while i agree it gets to be overload. the one thing that interests me. i got an e-mail that said will was planning on spending the night with his wife. that's what's exciting to see the people who have a life of tedious kind of, you know, bogged down with all tradition, just being normal people.

i love that this couple they're just normal. >> certainly are. >> i like seeing that. that's it. we'll be right back. >> certainly are. >> i like seeing that. that's it. we'll be right back.

in. >> the airport was closed as a result of this accident which caused delays across the nation. it is now reopened. >> we were able to talk to one of the passengers who said that he was in an exit row and able to see some of the people who were coming out and already bandaged up. there were some injuries, not a ton of injuries. he said the pilot gave no warning. that this was happening -- it lead a lot of people to believe that it happened as it touched down. >> as it touched down, right. >> also another indication, -- the pilot would have given the airport warning obviously that this was happening and the airport would have been able to get their -- get their things together before the plane landed and skidded on to the runway causing the airport to close. causing the airport to close. >> there were some early reports that there was some mention of an issue. it turns out, in all the evidence otherwise, that it didn't happen until touchdown then everybody, another woman quoted said that it was the hardest, the landing was incredibly hard. they knew immediately something was very wrong. >> something was wrong. yeah, the -- the oxygen masks came down because of the impact not because they were released.

crew when her baby is born. >> reporter: but that ain't nothing compared to what likely comes later. and we are not just talking horse and carriages, but the fancy sports cars like maybe the british made aston martin. and then the fame. third in line to the throne will be stepping out in style. he will undoubtedly be the most photographed baby on earth. photographers tripping over his every coo. and this royal will not just be a local celebrity, but an internationally known statesman, even in the more reserved mold of dad william or maybe a bit more shall we say risque like uncle harry. but wait -- we're not there yet. first he has to become a man. and for that, there will be help. as every generation of royal has had, a nanny, at least part time, and of course, eventually a staff at his disposal including full time security detail. as for schooling this royal will have access to the best of education. but he is expected to stay close to home until high school just as william did.

and then there is the bling, this young royal will oversee the crown jewels collection valued at as much as $30 billion. that comes later. royal watchers say don't expect kate to make jewel-encrusted onesies. >> this baby will not be just dressed in designer outfits. i mean, let's face it. it's a baby. >> reporter: access to wealth and help doesn't mean kate and william will not be involved parents overseeing the day-to-day life of their boy. >> yes, you will see william change a diaper or two. >> reporter: one thing we can count on the baby will inherit a royal passion for animals as queen elizabeth loves her horses and kate and william love polo ponies and pooches. the puppy they adopted last year expected to be a loyal royal companion to the new baby in months and years to come. whatever life has in store for the prince, he will likely be

surrounded many rooms, a topnotch staff, loads of toys and some royal love. >> all right. brings us to the facebook question of the day -- >> we want to know what parenting advice would you give will and kate? >> hard to give advice when you are not a royal and they are. my advice, follow diana's lead. the way she raised the two. she made sure they saw homeless shelters, soup kitchens and another side of life. they knew wow we are privileged. this is not the way life is for everybody. she did such a great job. >> want to really quickly say, throughout this hoopla. everybody keeps saying why do we cover this? why are you giving it so much attention? while i agree it gets to be overload. the one thing that interests me. i got an e-mail that said will was planning on spending the night with his wife. that's what's exciting to see the people who have a life of tedious kind of, you know, bogged down with all tradition, just being normal people. i love that this couple they're

just normal. >> certainly are. >> i like seeing that. that's it. we'll be right back. >> certainly are. >> i like seeing that. that's it. we'll be right back.
