The Royal Breakfast By Zach Johnson

Prinz William and Kate Middleton haven't forgotten the commoners!

As the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge anxiously await the arrival of their second child, fans are camping outside St. Mary's Hospital in London, where Middleton will soon deliver the next royal heir. However, the weather is unseasonably chilly, with the overnight temperature dropping as low as 38F°. So, how did the parents-to-be express their gratitude? To make the wait a tad more enjoyable, the royal couple sent their fans breakfast pastries and hot drinks Tuesday, Kensington Palace told NBC. The coffee, croissants and danishes were delivered at around 9 a.m. local time. Royal admirer Maria Scott told People that two men arrived carrying two white boxes tied up in pink ribbons and 10 cups of coffee. "They knocked on the tent and said, 'Good morning, we have a present from the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.'" Fellow fan John Loughrey, who's been camped outside the hospital since Apr. 16, added, "We're really touched—we thank them with all our hearts." E! Online
