"The Queen has been spotted meeting Prince William and Kate Middleton&amp;#039;s newborn son for the first time. The 87-year-old monarch arrived at the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge&amp;#039;s residence this morning (July 24) to meet her great-grandson, who is third in line to the throne, following his birth on Monday (July 22).  She was photographed at Kensington Palace in the back seat of a dark green Bentley at around 10.45am and stayed for just over 30 minutes. The Queen was reported to have told a guest at a Buckingham Palace reception yesterday that she was &amp;quot;thrilled&amp;quot; by the happy occasion, while an official statement released after the birth said that she and Prince Philip were &amp;quot;delighted at the news&amp;quot;. It is thought that the Queen was the first person Prince William told about the birth in a phone call from St Mary&amp;#039;s Hospital in Paddington.  He and Middleton introduced their son to the public yesterday outside the hospital&amp;#039;s Lindo Wing. Speaking to reporters about his baby, the Duke revealed: &amp;quot;He&amp;#039;s a big boy, he&amp;#039;s quite heavy. We are still working on a name, but we will have that as soon as we can.  &amp;quot;It&amp;#039;s the first time we&amp;#039;ve seen him really so we are having a proper chance to catch up.&amp;quot; Prince Charles was joined by Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall to visit his new grandson prior to William and Kate leaving the hospital. The Duchess of Cambridge&amp;#039;s parents Carole and Michael Middleton were the newborn&amp;#039;s first visitors on Tuesday (July 23).
