It's the royal baby bump debut!
Well, with six months to go until her April 2015 due date, there's not much of a bump just yet, but this morning expectant mom Kate Middleton put in her first official public appearance since she and her husband Prince William announced last month that they are expecting baby #2. Despite spending the past 6 weeks in the throes of hyperemesis gravidarum, the Duchess of Cambridge looked simply stunning.
Kate, 32, wore a tailored grey Alexander McQueen coat and matching hat by Jane Taylor as she arrived at a London hotel to greet Singapore president Tony Tan Keng Yam and his wife.
"I've been looking forward to getting out of the house – that's for sure," admitted Prince George's mom.
Though a palace statement issued yesterday noted that Kate has been "steadily improving," her second experience with hyperemesis gravidarum has reportedly been every been as bad as it was during her first pregnancy.
"Don't be fooled by the fact that she hasn't been admitted to hospital this time," says a source. "She is just as poorly. The difference is that her doctors have been able to diagnose and treat her quicker. She really hasn't been at all well, though."
That might explain The Daily Mail's suggestion that the Duchess looked "a teeny bit peaky" during her royal outing this morning. Just what every expectant mom wants to hear, right? I think she looks wonderful - and it sounds like I'm not the only one.
"She has been through a tough time, but she is looking lovely," reports one royal watcher, who was on hand to see the expectant parents. "She looked absolutely beautiful. She's a classy, beautiful woman. And William looks delightful, too."
This is likely the first of many official appearances Kate will be making throughout her pregnancy, so we will have plenty of chances to see her growing bump. Maybe she'll "pop" earlier this time around than she did with little George. During my first pregnancy it seemed to take forever before I actually looked pregnant - the second time that belly was pretty hard to miss!
Did you show earlier with baby #2?
