Punters bet on royal baby hair colour, weight, career
Frenzied betting is on in the UK over the birth of the royal baby.
At William Hill, Andrew has solid support — down from 33/1 to 16/1. Harold is also in the picture with 16/1 and Zac is now 25/1 from 100/1. “We think Zac is a little trendy but we have seen quite a few bets so there might be something in this,” Adams added.
James, with the odds of 6/1 trails Alexandra (6/4) and Victoria (6/1) at Ladbrokes. “This is the first major gamble we’ve had on a boy’s name and with just days to go we’re taking it very seriously,” Jessica Bridges of Ladbrokes said.
At 500/1, Waynetta is the least likely name for the royal baby at William Hill, followed by Kai with 1000/1 at Paddy Power and North at 5000/1 at Ladbrokes. The bookmakers are also offering betting options on hair colour of the baby, weight of the child, and even the time of the birth. William Hill is offering equal odds of 10/11 that either Kate or William will be holding the baby when they first emerge from the hospital. The vigil outside the hospital in central London has already started with press photographers waiting patiently outside to grab the best spot for the photograph of the royal family. The bets on the career of the baby, age at first photograph of visit to nightclub is published, name of first romantic partner are all on offer too. Royal Mint is giving 2,013 commemorative pennies to kids born on the same day, to mark the birth of the royal child.
