The former aide shared how he had written down the top secret information – which included Charlotte’s time of birth and weight – but he dropped it on the street.
He shared to 60 Minutes Australia: “We weren’t going to announce it for another couple of hours. And I had this piece of paper to go write this press release.
“I’m still out there with hundreds of journalists trying to have a game face, and then I couldn’t find the piece of paper, and I think I had dropped it somewhere on the street.
“But somewhere on that street the entire time was a piece of paper that said there had been a little princess born, what time and how much she weighed. It was one of those things, like, heart in mouth until we got to the announcement, and I got through it.”
When he was questioned as to whether he ever found the slip, he shared: “No, I never found it and neither did any of the media though. So that’s all that really mattered.”
Princess Kate and Prince William’s second child, Princess Charlotte was born on May 2, 2015 at 8.34am at St Mary’s Hospital.
She was brought into the world in the infamous Lindo Wing, and weighed 8lbs 3oz.
Princess Charlotte has won the hearts of royal fans around the globe thanks to her adorable personality and stylish looks.
The sassy and lovable youngster – now aged nine – may be the Prince and Princess of Wales’ only daughter, but she certainly holds her own around brothers.
From nailing her own little royal wave to delighting fans with her funny sayings, Princess Charlotte often steals the show.

Speaking to Fabulous, Judi said: “This is such a confident and grown-up look from Charlotte who has moved on from the childlike trait of standing straight and awkward in front of the camera and who has opted instead to strike a pose that looks assertive and relaxed, with a smile that is less of a fun grin and more of a signal of warmth and empathy.”
The body language professional added: “Her lean creates a series of body angles but the way she has chosen a high wall to lean her elbow on suggests a quiet desire to dominate and take the lead.
“The lifted arm also creates one pit-bare gesture that is another sign of confidence.”
