Will Kate and Will have another baby?

Just wondered about this. The DoC seems like a very happy mum of small kids. She's almost 40, do you think they'll have a number 4?

I didn't hear them say they were done between Charlotte & Louis, I think 3 was the plan, I don't think they'll have any more.

Shame really as they make super cute kids. I'd love to 'order' a couple 🤣

The green ambassadors (with 3 children who will have a very high environmental foot print -indeed they already do)

I wouldn't be surprised- they have already been total hypocrites having 3.

JanisMoplin · 21/04/2022 19:16

I hope not, given William has been lecturing the rest of the world about the pressure of population growth whie merrily jetting around.

dumdumduuuummmmm · 21/04/2022 19:18

Omg I hope not. Unfortunately though, they can make this choice knowing full well that we will pick up the tab for life. If they do then they are truly selfish and entitled

She’s 1 of 3 children herself and I think that’s what she’s replicated. George is on a very particular path, so Charlotte and Louis will have each other. I wonder if that’s been part of the problem for Harry-would he have been more settled if there had been another sibling? We’ll never know..

I think Catherine did well to have a 2nd pregnancy after having hyperemesis, and then she had a 3rd! I don’t think we’ll see a 4th

I thought Kate had always said she wanted 3 children, like her own family.

Borgonzola · 21/04/2022 19:55

As someone who currently has 'mild' HG, I bloody hope not for her sake

Did she actually say this? Or is it just something people assume?

CathyorClaire · 21/04/2022 20:26

Hope not.

Leaving aside yet more leeching off the public purse the problem with entitled once-upon-a-time spares has been more than adequately highlighted in recent times.

It's got to be easier on you mentally if your sibling is inheriting a huge thing that you will not - whether that's the family business, big estate, the monarchy - if you are not the only one. If there's just two like William and Harry you are literally 'the spare' and the only one who is not getting this big thing. At least with more siblings you can see that it's not a rejection of 'you' just a quirk of fate that you were not born first.

I think Anne adjusted like this fairly early on as soon as Andrew was born.

Harry stopped being 'the spare' in 2013 as soon as George was born but I don't think he's over that feeling of rejection yet.

Nah, reckon she'd have gone for a similar gap between 3 and 4 like she did for 1 and 2

OverByYer · 23/04/2022 08:44

I wouldn’t have thought so now. She had awful pregnancies. Louis is 4 today ( lovely photos!) and she is 40.
i wouldn’t if i was her

the80sweregreat · 23/04/2022 08:56

I loved the photos of Louis and can't believe he is now four.
I'm one pic he looks like his mum, but the one with him laughing he looked like his dad. He seems a sweet little boy
I doubt she'll want any more children now to be honest.

KangarooKenny · 23/04/2022 08:58

I would think so, but it will be after the jubilee celebrations.

BurgerKingAddict · 23/04/2022 09:15

Maybe she will surprise everyone and have one when she’s 45.

I've always thought Louis was the spit of his mum. But in these pictures he looks more like his dad. Those Windsor genes always win in the end! Mind you, William looks very like his own mum so there's that.

the80sweregreat · 23/04/2022 09:54

Louis looks a character.
I'm not a ' royalist ' at all , but they do have lovely looking children and the photos they put out are lovely of them all.

Rinoachicken · 23/04/2022 11:44

I don’t think so. They will be aware that the time is approaching when they will be required to be much more visible and busy as the new Prince and princess of wales once Charles becomes King. Realistically this is likely to be within the next 5 years.

I would imagine that will be easier with school aged children rather than preschool aged.

I think Louis looks like Charlotte and William. George is like Kates father.

rocketfromthecrypt · 23/04/2022 20:10

I think she would if she could get away with it, as a way of putting off doing any work for another few years. William isn't up for it though and given his comments about the environment they'd get hauled over the coals for it.

I believe she flew to Mustique with her family for a holiday during one of her supposed HG episodes so I don't think she suffered that badly with it (or at all). If she was properly ill I'd be surprised if she could have tolerated such a long flight for a jolly, even by private jet.

Cascais · 23/04/2022 20:10

No

She was hospitalised
