“They're modernising the Royal Family and doing a wonderful job of it.
"It would be brilliant, wouldn't it, if they do have a little girl? To have one of my family, my niece, making history will be absolutely unbelievable."
Due to a change in the law, the couple’s first child whether a boy or a girl, will be the heir to the throne and when born will have the title Prince or Princess of Cambridge.
Known as the ‘King of Fun’, Mr Goldsmith dispelled rumours that he is not close to his family and said people often “think the worst.”
He described himself as a self made business man, and is currently worth £30 million after selling his shares in recruitment consultancy SThree PLC for £17 million three years ago.
He revealed he is closest to his nephew James, 26, but still remained in contact with the Duchess of Cambridge and sister Pippa, being known as Uncle G.
He is also said to be considering gifts for the new arrival and said he is “incredibly proud” of his family. He added: "I remember pictures of Kate when she was a toddler, sat in my parents' garden, balancing on this rockery in this fish pond my dad made from an old corner bath.
"We were all sitting there thinking, 'Just one picture, don't fall in'... and that girl there is now one of the most iconic women on the planet. And I'm her uncle..."
Mr Goldsmith was previously caught in a News of the World sting after he was pictured cutting a line of cocaine, after he entertained an undercover reporter posing as a businessman at his Ibizan villa, La Maison de Bang Bang.
News of the birth of the royal baby is widely anticipated, after the Duchess of Cambridge passed her presumed due date this weekend.
Bookmakers have taken bets on names and the sex of the baby and the Royal Mint has announced it is bringing out a new £5 silver coin to mark the Royal birth.
