Rumors are going around that Kate Middleton is currently pregnant.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, both 33 years-old, are said to be growing their family by having their third child, with Kate allegedly pregnant for two months now. An insider told U.S. magazine Life & Style that the couple has already told the royal family about the news last December. The magazine added that Prince Harry was ecstatic about the growing family, jumping up and down after hearing the big announcement on Christmas. 

"Kate and William have always wanted to have a large family, but they didn't think they would be expecting baby number three quite so soon," said the insider.

The duchess has just given birth to their second baby, Princess Charlotte, about seven months ago. Their first baby, Prince George, is two years-old and is already in nursery school. 

There have been quite a number of wrong speculations linked to the royal family. The duchess was also rumored to be pregnant when Princess Charlotte was just four months old. During her pregnancy with her second baby, there were speculations, too, that she was carrying twins in her womb.

The Kensington Palace has not yet made any official announcement.

In the meantime, the Countess of Strathearn, the duchess' more popular title in Scotland, is busy visiting schools for her charity works. She has an advocacy to help children's mental health. Simon Perry of People Now reported on Feb. 24 her live appearance in Scotland. Her first stop was at St. Catherine's primary school where she was welcomed by little kids named Suranne Jeffrey and Rodney Oduro with a bouquet of flowers. The princess checked how Place2Be is doing its charity work in less fortunate areas in Scotland.
