Prince of Avalon gives update on Princess of Avalon and the new baby

His Imperial Highness The Prince of Avalon gave a press conference today with updates on The Princess of Avalon and their newly born premature son.

"First of all I would like to thank the public for their outpouring of support for Alex and our son. I would first like to announce our sons name as George Edward Nathaniel Richard. He will be styled as His Imperial Highness Prince George of Avalon. After much discussion with my father and Prince Nathaniel it has been decided that until we know the long term effects of the premature birth that George will not be my heir. Nicholas will continue on as second in line to the throne until such a time as either George is confirmed to be able to inherit the throne or Alex and I have another child." "Alex is doing well and is expected to be released from the hospital shortly. She will remain on maternity leave until George is stable and/or able to come home. I will continue to split my time between my duties as heir to the throne and my family. We ask that everyone continue to give my entire family and I time to adjust to what will be our new normal."

Please stay tuned for further information as it becomes available.
