Kate Middleton had been heavily speculated to be pregnant with her and Prince William’s fourth child for quite a while now. Now, royal fans are convinced that she is definitely expecting because of this one major clue.
Last week, Kate Middleton was the only member of the “Royal Fab Four” who attended the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Alliance’s 70th anniversary at the Buckingham Palace. She was accompanied by her private secretary Catherine Quinn to support Queen Elizabeth as her husband Prince William was on a royal tour to Kuwait and Oman on his own from December 1 to 4. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are currently in the US for their six-week-break.
So what was the clue that led fans to believe that Kate Middleton is pregnant with a fourth royal heir? You see, the Duchess of Cambridge usually accompanies Prince William in his official trips but she stayed in the UK this time around.
The public knows that Kate Middleton had very difficult pregnancies, and the decision to let her stay behind convinced a lot of people that she may be pregnant. This is something that doesn't happen often, so fans were wondering what's the real reason that she stayed.
Just last month, Kate Middleton sparked pregnancy rumors even more when Prince William brought a tour doctor with them on their trip. Many believe that there is no point in bringing a tour doctor unless the Duke of Cambridge wanted to ensure his wife’s welfare.
“Hahahaha, she’s pregnant again. The German TV reported it nearly a month ago,” one netizen commented on Twitter. “Good if she is! Pushes the spare and his wife down the line a bit more,” another one wrote.
Meanwhile, Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle, and Princess Eugenie are all rumored to be pregnant. While none of the royals confirmed nor denied this speculation, many are convinced that these women are going to announce their pregnancy soon. However, Ladbrokes has stopped taking bets on the Duchess of Cambridge of becoming a mom for the fourth time in 2020 after a flurry of wagers.
“We've suspended betting on Kate, who is most likely to give birth in 2020,” Alex Apati, a PR personnel for Ladbrokes, said. “Royal fans reckon Kate is showing early signs of a potential pregnancy. We've welcomed two royal babies into the world in as many years and punters are seemingly confident Kate will make it three in three.”
