Kate Middleton Is Already Telling Friends She Wants A Third Child


Kate Middleton is reportedly already telling her close friends that she wants to have a third child.

In fact, the Duchess Of Cambridge is believed to have set a date for when she wants to have her next child by, because she insists that she wants to have a brother or sister for Prince George and Princess Charlotte before she turns 35.

According to The Telegraph, close friends of Kate Middleton’s have informed them of her desire to have another child. These insiders have revealed that Middleton wants to have “at least” three children so that Prince George and Princess Charlotte have a similar experience to her childhood.

Kate Middleton is the eldest child to Michael and Carole Middleton, and she has a younger sister, Pippa, and younger brother, James. Kate is only 20 months older than Pippa, and less than five years older than James. She was reportedly extremely close to her siblings when she grew up.

It appears as though Kate Middleton and Prince William have long planned to have at least three children. That’s because they decided to have Prince George and Princess Charlotte less than two years apart so that they could have a third child before Kate turned 35.

Another reason why Kate Middleton might be considering giving birth before she turns 35 is that conceiving a child after this age becomes a lot harder, while parenting experts insist that it’s a lot healthier for mothers to space out their pregnancies by two years.

Kate Middleton only gave birth to her second child, Princess Charlotte, six weeks ago at the start of May. Meanwhile, her first child Prince George, who is the third in line to the British throne, was born in July 2013. Despite the fact that she only gave birth recently, bookmakers in England have started to lay out odds about when her next child will be born.

Redbook, via Yahoo, have reported that bookmaking firm Coral believe that Kate Middleton’s third child will be born in 2016. They have set these odds at 6-4, which basically means that they are 40 percent confident that Middleton will give birth in that year.
