Prince Louis: The Heaviest Newborn Heir to the Throne in a Century

Prince Louis, the third child of Prince William and Princess Catherine, may not be the firstborn son, but he certainly holds a special distinction.

As the sixth great-grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II, his Royal Highness, Prince Louis of Cambridge, has captured the hearts of many.

Little did he know that from the moment he entered the world, he became fifth in line to the throne of England.

While Prince Louis excels in various areas, there is one category where he undeniably stands out – his birth weight.

Weighing a robust eight pounds seven ounces, he surpassed the weights of his older siblings at birth, earning him the title of the heaviest baby among the Wales family.

But that's not all.

Prince Louis also holds the record for being the heaviest newborn heir to the throne in at least a hundred years, a distinction he proudly maintains.

In a surprising revelation by a royal insider, it was shared that one of Prince Louis' favorite songs is “Happy Birthday.”

Although it may seem unusual for such a young child to have a favorite song, there are a couple of factors to consider.

Firstly, at just one year old, Prince Louis has not yet been exposed to a wide range of music, except for that one special occasion when he enjoyed cake, presents, and the classic tune.

Secondly, he is royalty.

If Prince Louis chooses to hum this beloved song on any given day, it is unlikely that anyone would dare to stop him.

The only potential challenge arises when celebrating the birthdays of his elder siblings, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.

As long as Prince Louis focuses on the song rather than blowing out the candles, the Wales family can avoid any tantrums.

Traditionally, the royal family has adhered strictly to rules and protocols.

However, as times change, they have begun to embrace a more modern approach.

In a significant departure from family tradition, Prince Louis will not bypass his sister, Princess Charlotte, in the line of succession solely because he is male.

This change marks him as the first male royal to prioritize birth order over gender.

Perhaps his mischievous behavior at Queen Elizabeth's Platinum Jubilee was a subtle act of rebellion.

Previously, an outdated royal rule called the Act of Settlement of 1701 allowed boys born into the royal family to surpass their sisters in the line of succession due to gender bias.

However, in 2013, Her Majesty the Queen discarded this antiquated rule and replaced it with the Succession to the Crown Act, which emphasizes birth order.

Therefore, if Prince George were to abdicate the throne without any children, Princess Charlotte and her potential offspring would take precedence over Prince Louis.

Despite this groundbreaking change, Prince Louis must still adhere to other royal protocols.

These include refraining from taking selfies with members of the public, avoiding games of Monopoly, and abstaining from consuming garlic.

As the younger sibling, he joins Prince George and Princess Charlotte in returning to school after their holiday break.

However, there is a minor adjustment in their titles.

Instead of using the Cambridge moniker, they will now be referred to as the Wales children.

Consequently, at Lambrook School, Prince Louis will be known as Louis-Wales, reflecting his family name.

Prince Louis continues to make history, both with his birth weight and his place in the line of succession.

As he grows and navigates the expectations that come with his royal status, the world eagerly watches his journey, witnessing the evolution of the British monarchy in the process.
