The Duchess of Cambridge has been admitted to hospital in the early stages of labour.
Catherine was admitted to the Lindo Wing at St Mary's Hospital in west London where her first child, Prince George, was born in July 2013.
Kensington Palace said "labour is progressing as normal" for the duchess, who was taken to the hospital by car.
Officials have said the duchess and her husband, Prince William, do not know the sex of their unborn child.
The duchess travelled from Kensington Palace with Prince William and was admitted at 06:00 BST (05:00 GMT).
The new baby will be fourth in line to the throne, behind his or her grandfather Prince Charles, father Prince William and brother Prince George.
Princes William and Harry were also born at the Lindo Wing, a private unit within St Mary's NHS hospital.
Fans of the Royal Family have been gathering near the hospital with flags and banners in recent days.
