Is Kate Middleton pregnant? Those are the rumors that are surrounding the royal couple. As the Inquisitr reported, it’s widely speculated that Kate Middleton is expecting her third child with Prince William. Pregnancy rumors started in the spring, but heated up in the summer when the globe trotting couple scaled down their traveling plans.

The first big bombshell to come out of the Kate Middleton pregnant rumors was back in April when Hollywood Life reported via Life & Style that The Duchess was expecting twins. As we know, The Duchess and the Duke already have two children, a boy named George, three, and a daughter, Charlotte, who is one-year-old. Back then, a source said that they were shocked when they found out about the exciting news.

“Kate and William were totally shocked when they found out. They couldn’t speak at first and then both burst out laughing and crying. When Kate gives birth later this year, they are going to have their hands full!”

However, the evidence of Kate Middleton pregnant rumors never materialized. By now, Kate would be showing significantly if she was, in fact expecting twins, and as far as we can see it doesn’t look like she’s expecting two babies anytime soon. That said, she may still be expecting one child, if going by numerous rumors that have persisted throughout the summer.

The same magazine reported three months later about the Kate Middleton pregnant rumors. It was stated that the Duchess is allegedly due in December and the twin theory was presumably thrown out the window. As for the pregnancy, Life & Style abandoned their old report and alleged that Kate was four months along and the Royals were “overjoyed” by the surprising news. The source told the magazine Queen Elizabeth thought it was exciting news, calling the rumored December due date, “a fabulous present for her 90th birthday this year.”

As with most rumors, there were some conflicting facts about the rumored pregnancy. Specifically, about Queen Elizabeth’s happiness over the alleged third pregnancy. As the Inquisitr reported via Celeb Dirty Laundry, Queen Elizabeth was angry with Kate Middleton and Prince Charles. The site said that William and Kate skipped out on royal work and charitable duties and used the pregnancy to do so. The outlet went on to label the couple as, “the laziest royal couple in history for their work-allergic attitude towards their charities and royal engagements.”

That said, according to Hello Magazine, the couple cut their vacation to France short to attend to Prince William’s obligations to the East Anglian Air Ambulance charity. So, they can’t be too lazy if they’re prioritizing charity work over lavish vacations.

Aside from the questionable reports, the main question surrounding the Kate Middleton pregnant rumors, is why haven’t we seen any physical evidence of a third pregnancy? The Duchess and Duke are arguably the most sought after couple and are known for their photo ops. Wouldn’t we have seen evidence of a growing baby bump if Kate Middleton was expecting?

Well, Celeb Dirty Laundry has uncovered some screen grabs of a 15-second video that Kensington Palace released on Twitter. Needless to say, the video and the screen grabs are raising some eyebrows.

The site reports that some observers think they’ve spotted a baby bump while the Royal couple was touring the Tresco Garden.

Just for another perspective, here’s a professional photo that was taken of the couple on the same day.
