Rachel Ballard with the triplets at Queen Alexandra Hospital in Portsmouth. See SWNS copy SWTRIPLETS: A couple who nearly gave birth to triplets by the side of the road have been able to hold two of them for the first time. Rachel Ballard and Kris Moyse are the proud new parents to William, Polly and Penny, who were born at 32 weeks on Thursday morning. And despite being born premature on the day the Queen turned 90, only one has a royal name. Proud dad Kris said: "It's a complete coincidence as William is my granddad's name. They were due to arrive on May 11, but Mother Nature decided otherwise, and they came on the Queen’s birthday so it’s like it was meant to be.”
