The 26-year-old, who lives near Sefton Park, said rumours started circling around the hospital at around 10am there was going to be a royal visit, but they didn't know who. It wasn't until nurses hears screams from outside that they ran and saw the Prince and Princess of Wales outside the front of the hospital.
