Kate Middleton

Kate Middleton is pregnant, according to the cover story on a US magazine this week - but, unsurprisingly, it would seem there is absolutely no truth to it.

The Duchess of Cambridge gave birth to Prince George last June, and is said by North America's Star to be "absolutely thrilled" by the news that she is now allegedly three months pregnant with a baby girl.

This, according to Gossip Cop, is completely false.

The magazine's supposed source had claimed: "Little George is getting a sister, and Kate is absolutely thrilled. She was really hoping the next child would be a girl, and having it confirmed has just given her the best start to the year. Kate and William are ecstatic!

"Kate has been talking about it to a number of people - she isn't trying to hide it. It's so different from when she had George; she seems more at peace now, because she knows what to expect."

Star added that Kate apparently told Prince William the news on Valentine's Day, and that they will not name her Diana.

Alas, it would seem that the international publication has not landed a big Royal scoop, and that the Duchess is not currently expecting her second bundle of joy.

Reps have been contacted for comment.
