Following the still unnamed prince’s introduction to the world outside the hospital’s private Lindo Wing, Michelle Obama took to Twitter to congratulate the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on the newest addition to their family and lay the groundwork for a future visit with the young royal. “Barack and I are thrilled to congratulate The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on their newest arrival,” she wrote. “We hope to meet him soon for a Kensington Palace pajama party. I’ll wear my robe!” The former First Lady’s proposal included a photo of the [Obamas’ meet and greet](http://time.com/4305480/robe-prince-george-barack-michelle-obama/) with Kate and William’s first child, Prince George, at Kensington in 2016—an occasion for which the then 2-year-old prince donned an adorable mini white robe. > [](https://twitter.com/MichelleObama/status/988527765392711680) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5252311/obamas-royal-baby-pajama-party/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5252311/obamas-royal-baby-pajama-party/"},"headline":"The Obamas Are Already Planning a Pajama Party With the New Royal Baby","datePublished":"2018-04-24T14:57:56.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:52:24.805Z","description":"This sleepover will definitely be a can't-miss","url":"https://time.com/5252311/obamas-royal-baby-pajama-party/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Barack Obama","Michelle Obama","royal baby","royals"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb95cb8485371b9ec/69892e8022fb856217e256dd/prince-harry-barack-obama-michelle-obama-prince-william-kate-middleton.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltb95cb8485371b9ec/69892e8022fb856217e256dd/prince-harry-barack-obama-michelle-obama-prince-william-kate-middleton.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"The Obamas Dine At Kensington Palace","caption":"The Obamas Dine At Kensington Palace","creditText":"WPA Pool/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5252311/obamas-royal-baby-pajama-party/","name":"The Obamas Are Already Planning a Pajama Party With the New Royal Baby"}}]}] ```
