A specially-filmed scene will be inserted into Tuesday's edition of EastEnders, marking the birth of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's son.
Dot Cotton and Abi Branning will be seen discussing the new arrival in the episode, to be broadcast at 19:30 BST.
"This is such a momentous occasion for the Royal family, the country and, of course, the residents of Walford that we felt it should be marked," said a spokeswoman for the soap.
The show often reflects topical events.
Scenes discussing the death of Michael Jackson and the election of US President Barack Obama have been dropped into the programme at the last minute.
Footage of the Royal Wedding was also included in an episode in 2011, just hours after the ceremony had taken place.
Most recently, Andy Murray's win at Wimbledon was scripted into the show.
In the scene, Kim Fox told Jay Brown she wanted to change the name of her B&B from Kim's Palace to Wimbledon Palace as a tribute.
