There is no question that Kate Middleton has a heavy load of responsibilities on her thin shoulders. The Duchess is a hands-on mother to two adorable little ones, and that is usually enough to cause any young woman to feel exhausted. However, Kate is also expected to represent the royal family with poise and perfection at a number of events, weekly, and Middleton is keen to do her part to support and be an advocate for an array of charities that call on her for various appearances.

Claims are being made that the stress of it all is resulting in the Duchess being neglectful of her health, which has in turn caused her to lose too many pounds since giving birth to Princess Charlotte last year. OK! shares the details in regard to the worry this has caused within the royal family.

“Kate Middleton is trying her best to keep up with her royal duties and raise her two children but the stress is taking a serious toll on the Duchess of Cambridge and her family is worried.”

A source shared with the magazine that Middleton has dropped to below 100 lbs, and at 5 foot 9 inches tall, this is a terribly light weight.

“She’s lost a dramatic amount of weight. She’s way too thin. It’s no wonder there’s been so much speculation about her health.”

The insider goes on to share that although Kate claims she’s perfectly fine, her husband has taken to worrying about his wife.

“While Kate ‘insists she’s fine,’ the insider said her husband Prince William is ‘worried sick about her. She’s definitely not her usual sparkly self right now…she’s not sleeping and has totally lost her appetite,’ the source continued.”

Apparently, having a second child has been the big catapult to the Duchess feeling so drained and appearing a bit more frail.

“Kate, who gave birth to her second child a year ago ‘found baby number two the most exhausting experience, alongside all the Royal duties she’s had to deal with, including that huge tour of India,’ the insider added.”

It sounds like the royal family has decided on assisting Middleton to get back on track and want to alleviate the Duchess’ stress as opposed to adding to it.

“[The] royals aren’t going to let her waste away anymore! ‘Her family is urging her to put on ’15 lbs before autumn,’ the source revealed.”

It’s really no wonder that Prince Harry is selecting to keep any young women from such stress like that which Kate Middleton feels and likely how his own mother felt by times. In a recent interview, Harry’s ex-girlfriend of seven years Chelsy Davy spoke about how terrible it was being on the arm of the Prince. The Times shares her words.

“It was so full-on – so crazy and scary and uncomfortable. I found it very difficult when it was bad. I couldn’t cope… I was trying to be a normal kid, and it was horrible.”

Since parting ways with Chelsy, Harry has maintained his single status and has noted on numerous occasions that it’s due to the paranoia of the press hounding whoever he may end up dating. It’s clear that Kate Middleton is surrounded daily and expected to be at her best at every moment, which would indeed cause an enormous level of stress. Prince Harry gets this.

The 30-year-old shared about how he will handle a future romance, should one develop, as Yahoo News reports.

“If or when I do find a girlfriend, I will do my utmost… to ensure that me and her can get to the point where we’re actually comfortable with each other before the massive invasion that is inevitably going to happen into her privacy. The other concern is that even if I talk to a girl, that person is then suddenly my wife, and people go knocking on her door.”
