Now that their plans of having a third baby is no longer a secret after British tabloids feasted on the disclosure of royal servants, the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton has been very vocal about having a third baby soon enough, just four months after giving birth to Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana in May.
Apparently, Kate does not just want to have a third child, she actually plans of having two more children before she turns 40 years old, according to the International Business Times.
But her first order of business is to have a third child before she turns 35 years old. As she is now 33 years old, her window of becoming pregnant for her third child is just about a year or so.
While there have been reports lately that Kate is now on the early stages of her third pregnancy, it seems those are merely wishful hype, although it appears now that she and Prince William have been trying, according to a source close to the royal couple.
The source also added that Kate definitely wants a third baby by the time she’s 35 so that she can have even more before she’s 40.
The Duchess of Cambridge grew up with two siblings so she likes the idea of having another baby soon. But she does not intend to stop at three because she wants to have four children when she’s all done giving birth, details the insider.
Postpartum depression
The royal couple has been keeping the postpartum depression of Kate Middleton as a secret from the media and the Queen. However, someone from the staff members revealed in the media and the public that the Duchess was feeling worse than what was being initially portrayed of her.
According to reports, Kate started suffering from the depression after giving birth to Princess Charlotte in May that has led to her skipping her royal duties.
However, there are also reports saying that the Duchess of Cambridge was absent from a number of royal gatherings because she does not want to take chances on her third pregnancy.
She was supposed to join Prince William at the All Saints Church in Thurlestone, South Devon for the wedding of socialite Daisy Dickson and estate agent Bear Maclean in July. But William, who is an old friend of the groom, showed up with sister-in-law Pippa Middleton.
Apparently, rather than attend the wedding with her husband, Kate spent the day relaxing and playing with Prince George and Princess Charlotte. But she was confident that Prince William will be in good hands as he is being escorted by her sister who is more than delighted to pitch in for her.
Drawing portraits of her children
One of the things that currently preoccupies Kate Middleton is drawing portraits of her two adorable children, reports the Daily Mail.
Kate has reportedly spent the summer enjoying the long sunny afternoon in the picturesque garden of her Norfolk home Anmer Hall with her sketchbook in hand, drawing detailed pencil works of her two children.
But because Prince George is notorious for being wriggly and free-spirited, she had very little luck to persuade him to keep still even for just a couple of minutes.
In addition, the Duchess of Cambridge is also drawing portraits of herself from her own photographs and that she has shown some of her work to select friends, a number of whom are into arts.
The sketches look really great that one of Kate’s friends actually teased her that she should exhibit at the National Portrait Gallery, where she happens to be a patron.
Last month, the Duchess of Cambridge feels bad and betrayed that some of her former royal servants is spilling secret details about her and her family’s private affairs to the media and even to Queen Elizabeth.
Recently, details of Kate Middleton’s personal goings-on like her pole dancing and also her and Prince Willam’s plan of having a third baby came out in the tabloids and also got to the knowledge of the Queen.
It was actually the former bodyguards of the Duchess of Cambridge who were the ones who revealed several of her secrets to a local tabloid. Kate reportedly took offense when word about her taking pole dancing classes came out to the media and the public, which did not please Queen Elizabeth.
Both Kate and William are concerned with the stream of personal information making its way to the media and Queen Elizabeth.
But the biggest concern for William and Kate is how their private secrets are being reported to Queen Elizabeth, worried that it might displease the Queen all the more.
It seems however that despite all the displeasure that some of their private affairs and secrets made it to the media and the Queen, there is still a big way out for both Prince William and Kate and that is planning for a third royal baby.
It has been reported that Kate’s age and health concerns are just two of the main factors that can affect their plans of having a third baby. In the monarch of England, producing royal children is a huge economy stimulator and it is the true value of the Duchess of Cambridge in the eyes of the royalty.
