Prince Edward, Sophie Bring Home First Baby
- Share via
Britain’s Prince Edward and his wife, Sophie, carried their infant daughter out of a Frimley, England, hospital and headed home, more than two weeks after the baby was born prematurely.
“She looks like him,” said Sophie, as her husband cradled the baby.
The baby girl is the seventh grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II and the first child of Edward and Sophie, the Earl and Countess of Wessex, who married in 1999. They would not tell reporters her name.
