Kate Middleton’s due date has been a mystery for months, and the suspense grows ever stronger for royal-watchers.
The Duchess of Cambridge, pregnant with her and Prince William’s first child, is officially expected to give birth sometime in July. But a new report by the UK Daily Mail has pinned down a date and says Catherine can expect her bundle of joy to arrive on July 13.
The Daily Mail quotes an unnamed friend of the royal couple: “Some of Kate and William’s closest pals were at a barbecue hosted by a family friend of the Royals recently. They were all discussing the fact that Kate’s baby is due to be born on July 13. Everyone was very excited.”
We're excited too, but until there's official confirmation, we’ll have to take this report with a grain of salt. After all, it’s just the latest rumour surrounding the Duchess’ pregnancy.
Whether the child is a boy or girl is still a huge source of speculation (although Prince Harry reportedly spilled the beans last week), and we’ve been guessing at baby names since the early days of Kate’s pregnancy.
This much is clear: when it comes to all things concerning the royal baby, Kate's holding all the cards close to her chest. Well played, Kate, well played!
