Kate pregnant! Duke and Duchess of Cambridge expecting third royal baby

The Duchess is suffering from severe morning sickness again and has been forced to cancel a public engagement today. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are expecting their third child, Kensington Palace has announced. The statement said: "Their Royal Highnesses the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that the Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their third child. "The Queen and members of both families are delighted with the news. "As with her previous two pregnancies, the Duchess is suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum. "Her Royal Highness will no longer carry out her planned engagement at the Hornsey Road Children's Centre in London today. The Duchess is being cared for at Kensington Palace." The Palace did not say when Kate, 35, is expected to give birth. Prince Harry, asked about the news while visiting Manchester, said: "Fantastic. Great. Very, very happy." Asked how Kate was, he said: "I haven't seen her for a while but I think she's okay." The latest addition to the Cambridge family - another great-grandchild for the Queen - will be fifth in line to the throne, pushing Uncle Harry into sixth place. But it is unlikely that, as a third born royal in direct succession, he or she will become king or queen. The Prince of Wales is first in line, followed by William, Prince George and the couple's daughter Princess Charlotte, who is two. The Cambridges are also preparing for another major milestone this week - when four-year-old Prince George starts his first day at school on Thursday. The couple have chosen an independent school in Battersea, south London, where fees cost from £17,604 a year, for their firstborn. The family is now mainly based at their Kensington Palace apartment, rather than their Norfolk home, Anmer Hall. William is now a full-time Royal, having quit his job as a pilot for the East Anglian Air Ambulance in July. He is due to attend the National Mental Health and Policing Conference in Oxford on Tuesday. Speculation has already started on the sex and likely name of the couple's third child, with Alice - popular with bookmakers last time - or Alexandra possibilities for a girl and Frederick, James or Philip for a boy.
