The newest royal baby has arrived.

Kensington Palace announced early this morning that the Duchess had been admitted to the hospital with early signs of labor and only a few hours later that she and Prince William had welcomed a baby boy.

While the name of the new little prince hasn't been announced yet, it has been reported by Independent that British odd makers favor Albert and Arthur with 5-1 and 9-1 respectively.

The new addition joins Prince George, 4, and Princess Charlotte, who turns 3 on May 2nd. If he's anything like his siblings, he's sure to be utterly adorable.

Besides the new prince, Prince William and Duchess Kate are about to welcome even more new members to the family. It's been reported that Kate's sister Pippa is expecting her first child with husband James Matthews (via People), and they'll be gaining an in-law with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's royal wedding just around the corner.

Congratulations to the royal family!
