On Monday, Kate Middleton welcomed her third child with Prince William. The baby boy was born at the Lindo Wing of St. Mary’s Hospital in Paddington, London — the same hospital where Middleton’s first two children, Prince George, 4, and Princess Charlotte, 2, were born. It also happens to be where Princess Diana gave birth to Princes William and Harry. So it’s safe to say that the hospital holds important significance to certain British royal fans — and yowza, did they ever show their enthusiasm this time around.

Here, a collection of some of the wildest scenes from outside the Lindo Wing on Monday morning, from royalists who camped out for days and popped Champagne, to Biblical art created for the birth.
