KATE PREGNANT AGAIN

-

It’s only been a few weeks since Princess Charlotte started school and she’s already let her classmates in on a big secret: she’s going to be a big sister – again! According to a royal insider, Charlotte “let the cat out of the bag”, with the 4-year-old telling everyone that her “mummy is having another girl”.

“One of the teaching aides overheard Charlotte saying it and couldn’t believe her ears – Charlotte was talking very loudly, and seemed convinced that her mummy was pregnant,” the source reveals.

“It was certainly quite the bombshell to drop in her first week of school!’

The new Thomas’s Battersea student’s surprise admission echoes recent speculatio­n surroundin­g Kate’s pregnancy

– and her recent appearance at England’s Royal Horticultu­ral Society Garden at Wisley did little to quash the rumours.

Last week, the Duchess of Cambridge unveiled her third ‘Back to Nature’ garden, in support of her campaign to encourage kids to play outdoors.

For the occasion, the 37-yearold wore an elegant long-sleeved Emilia Wickstead floral dress – but it was the small round bump protruding just below her belt that caused a stir.

Eventgoers noted that Kate’s address contained subtle hints about her approach to raising children – and in particular newborns.

“As a parent, I have learned just how important it is to foster our children’s developmen­t in all areas, not just physical, as soon as they are born,” the duchess tellingly said to the crowd.

Meanwhile, it hardly comes as a surprise that Kate and Prince William’s daughter was the one to blab the news. The young royal has recently earned a reputation for her confident and cheeky behaviour – as evidenced when she poked her tongue out at photograph­ers during the King’s Cup sailing regatta.

Even Charlotte’s former classmates at Willcocks Nursery School identified her strongwill­ed streak, which led them to dub her ‘Warrior Princess’.

Royal expert and author Katie Nicholl explains that Charlotte’s adventurou­s behaviour earned her the moniker.

“Apparently she earned that nickname because obviously she is a princess, but she’s quite a tomboy,” Katie explains. “[And] she was quite known for her feisty personalit­y.”

Meanwhile, the royal insider says Charlotte was over the moon about having a sister.

“She said that she can’t wait, she seemed very excited,” the source adds.

Surely for Charlotte, who Prince William revealed “loves unicorns”, a baby sister would be the ultimate playmate!
