AIBU to call it that the future Queen Katherine is pregnant again!

The tiny bump at the women's Wimbledon final. The looser fit below the waist dress today at the men's. Her face is glowing and slightly fuller. I bet 6/7wks 👌

I've called it every time so I soooooo want to be right this time too, just because 😂

I really can't abide all this staring at women's bodies. Please stop. I know it seems harmless to you, but it's totally unnecessary and adds to the sense that every woman's body is public property.

how the heck does she have a tiny bump 6 /7 weeks into pregnancy ? happy to be educated, even though i've had 6 dc Smile

OrdinarySnowflake · 14/07/2019 21:32

No, I don't think she is, I do, however, think that was a very unflattering dress, and did make her look like she had a bit of a belly, but then side on shots, she didn't look like she did.

She might be pregnant again, but I would take that poorly fitting dress as a sign one way or the other. (I can't get over how badly fitting it was around the norks, made her look like she was freezing cold!)

SerenDippitty · 14/07/2019 21:33

I think she and Wills would be setting a very bad example if they had another child.

WhiteDust · 14/07/2019 21:33

Nah she’s always as sick as a dog in pregnancy
She looked quite subdued today I thought.
My first thought was that she had had a tiff with Wills. Shock

Mumto123monkeys · 14/07/2019 21:34

Eeee I hope so! Love royal baby news!

Although....I’m sure I read a post on mn earlier about her being too thin! Hmm.. prefer a bit of royal baby fun!

Mumto123monkeys · 14/07/2019 21:35

@SerenDippitty. Why?

BrexitBingoGenerator · 14/07/2019 21:35

Who’s this calling Meghan chunky? Christ, she was 9 months pregnant a few weeks ago- give her a break!

As to all this fawning over the Cambridges; yes their kids are as lovely as the next lot but do we need another?! The optics would be appalling. I really hope they stick with three.

CocoPops901 · 14/07/2019 21:36

This is madness
“Tiny bump”

SerenDippitty · 14/07/2019 21:38

@Mumto123monkeys do you really need that explained?

IABUQueen · 14/07/2019 21:41

No.

But maybe William is pregnant? I saw a small bump on him, below the button. And his hair is thicker. Shirts a bit more baggy.

And he looked hormonal on the family photo shoot in Archie’s Christianing.

Rowenaravenclawsdiadem · 14/07/2019 21:41

To the poster who called Meghan ‘chunky’. Fuck off. Whether you like her or not, body shaming someone with a 9 week old is shitty.

CallMeCarolDanvers · 14/07/2019 21:50

If William was pregnant that really would be something to talk about

spaniorita · 14/07/2019 21:51

I'd be happy for them if she was, lovely news and all that but she does look super slender at the moment, and as for that teeny tiny bump yesterday in the green dress, she has had 3 kids in the last 6 years Blush

PeoniesarePink · 14/07/2019 21:52

I thought today how unattractive William has become. None of the WIndsor men seem to have the "getting better with age" gene.

Fair play to Federer, he's one very attractive man. No wonder Kate was smiling handing over the trophies.....

Mumto123monkeys · 14/07/2019 21:54

@seredippitty yeah, I don’t see why it’s a bad example, What’s wrong with 4 children?

spaniorita · 14/07/2019 21:55

I think if she was pregnant enough to be showing she'd be pregnant enough to be feeling quite unwell - even without the HG she's suffered previously she'd likely at least have severe morning sickness at least.

Bluebluered · 14/07/2019 21:59

I don’t care. Megan looks gorgeous between the two sisters though. Such a beautiful full figure. Queen Catherine doesn’t look pregnant at all.

jonesyyy · 14/07/2019 22:05

I was also thinking this today

minisoksmakehardwork · 14/07/2019 22:07

@Tallgreenbottle - no I'm not! But I am not intrigued as to technique etc.

And having 4 showing sooner is not always true either. My bump measured smaller with twins than when I was pregnant the first two time with singletons! Was very weird.

cdtaylornats · 14/07/2019 22:07

I wonder how much we will end up paying for each of the little darlings

Nothing same as the rest - the Queen pays

SerenDippitty · 14/07/2019 22:09

Overpopulation,something Wills himself has been making speeches about, plus Prince Charles has always said he wants a slimmed down core royal family.

PurpleDaisies · 14/07/2019 22:10

No, I don't think she is, I do, however, think that was a very unflattering dress, and did make her look like she had a bit of a belly, but then side on shots, she didn't look like she did.

“A bit of a belly”? She’s probably a size 4/6. Confused

kmc1111 · 14/07/2019 22:13

She never had HG. Their PR put that out there hours after she went to hospital with bad morning sickness during her first pregnancy, before she’d actually been diagnosed with anything, then tried very hard to walk it back when stories describing how serious a condition it is came out. Her doctors press statement at the time made no mention of it, and it’s never been brought up again.

HG was obviously just something that was floated as a possibility, and they jumped the gun and assumed it was simply a medical term for bad morning sickness.

TokyoSushi · 14/07/2019 22:17

It would be lovely if she was, but who knows, time will tell!
