Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, has been officially confirmed by the Royal Palace that she's indeed pregnant once again. Rumors about the pregnancy have been swirling around for months and they have finally been put to rest.

Initial reports about the pregnancy sparked when an alleged friend of hers, Jessica Hay, who attended school with Middleton, came out and publicly stated that she knows the truth. She claimed that Middleton was pregnant, but this was immediately shot down by the Royal Palace. Apparently, Hay is no longer a friend of Middleton's, so there'd be no way for her to know that she was expecting.

After that, rumors became bolstered as Kate began to talk about her intention of having another child. She said that she wanted to have another one as her biological clock was ticking. As she's currently in her 30s, she said she still had some time left because her and Prince William are still young.

However, soon after, the rumors settled down as Kate denied the pregnancy allegations that were plaguing gossip outlets. On April 13, she attended a wine tasting event at Amisfield Vineyard. Evidently, this proved that she was not pregnant as the Duchess would most certainly not drink while expecting.

Stepping back into the present, it seems that the Royal couple has indeed conceived since then, as on September 8, a tweet confirmed the news. Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, is pregnant.

The newborn is expected to arrive next year, but as it stands, it's still unknown whether or not little Prince George will have a baby brother or sister. Evidently, this birth will be one of the most exciting events of 2015.
