The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge don’t know the gender of their second child but that hasn’t stopped punters predicting that it is a girl.
Bookies are also betting that the couple will call their baby Alice.
About nine in 10 bets have been placed on the arrival of a princess, and it has been predicted that “Princess Alice” could cost bookmakers around $974,200 in payouts.
Names that bookmakers have been taking bets on include Alice (5/4), Elizabeth (6/1), Charlotte (6/1), Victoria (14/1) and Diana (14/1).
