Royal Baby News: Kate's Hospital Gets A Makeover

It has a delivery suite fit for Royalty, and the world's media camped outside, long lenses at the ready.

So it's only fitting the Lindo Wing of St Mary's in Paddington gets its interior ship-shape for the Royal baby's arrival – expected any time soon.

The private hospital has just completed an 18 month refurbishment, with the Lindo Wing getting the star treatment. As Kate puffs away on gas and air, and welcomes the new heir to the throne, she can gaze up at these fancy installations from Julian Opie.

His work – of women walking and babies crawling - aims to 'enliven' expectant mums as they arrive on D-day.

Julian's work was specially commissioned for the Lindo Wing, where an overnight stay costs upwards of £4,965.

It does has a comprehensive wine and champagne list to wet the Royal baby's head though.

Chin, chin!
