In fact, there’s a new report that says the Duchess of Cambridge is keen to add a fourth child to their ever-expanding royal clan and now that the Sussexes are doing the same, she might have a reason to activate her baby making plans. Here’s what you need to know.
According to reports, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have announced that Archie Harrison is going to be a big brother. In an announcement on Sunday, Harry and the former Meghan Markle revealed that another baby royal is on the way.
“We can confirm that Archie is going to be a big brother. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are overjoyed to be expecting their second child,” a spokesperson for the couple said in a statement.
Meanwhile, according to Us Weekly, William and Kate are reportedly “trying” to conceive their fourth child by getting busy underneath the sheets. The royal couple already have three children: Prince George, 7, Princess Charlotte, 5 and 2-year-old Prince Louis.
“Having four children was always part of Kate’s plan,” one source close to the situation said. “She put the idea on hold when [the coronavirus pandemic] hit, but now there is light at the end of the tunnel with the vaccine and [Prince George and Princess Charlotte] scheduled to return to school in April. She feels ready to start trying again.”
Kate Middleton is also considering the fact that at her age, 39, the clock is most certainly ticking and that’s why she doesn’t want to waste any time.
“It took a while for Kate to convince William, though,” the insider tells Us. “He said that three children is more than enough. The thought of having four made him feel overwhelmed. … But Kate’s desires to have another child have inspired him, and at the end of the day, he loves and appreciates the secure family setting he never had growing up. Why not make it bigger? After taking some time to think about it, he’s on the same page and is excited about the future.”
