Kate Middleton Denies Rumours of Fourth Pregnancy

The Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton, has denied rumours that she is pregnant with her fourth child.

Speculation had been rife that Prince William and Kate were expecting another baby, with reports suggesting that the couple had told Queen Elizabeth II about the pregnancy prior to her passing on September 8.

However, recent images of the princess suggest that there is no truth to the rumours.

Kate was seen returning to her royal duties for King Charles' first state visit, which was given to South African President Cyril Ramaphosa at Buckingham Palace.

The princess looked stunning in a tight beige dress with a belt to define her waist, but fans couldn't help but notice her stomach.

Despite this, there is no evidence to suggest that Kate is indeed pregnant.

The royal couple also posted a lovely photograph with the South African president on their official Instagram and Twitter accounts, stating that it was a joy to welcome him to the UK.

Prince William and Kate played an instrumental role in the visit, which was a great success.

Meghan Markle Declines Offer of Assistance

In other news, Meghan Markle reportedly declined the late Queen's offer to be mentored by Sophie, Countess of Wessex, and given a crash course in royal life.

Giles Brandreth, in his upcoming book, Elizabeth, an Intimate Portrait, claims that the Queen was delighted when Meghan informed her that she had decided to give up her acting career to devote herself entirely to serving the Crown, the Commonwealth, and her husband.

However, the seasoned monarch was also aware that Meghan may find it difficult to adjust to royal life at first, and suggested that she might benefit from Sophie's mentorship.

But according to Mr Brandreth, the Duchess declined the offer, adamant that she did not need Sophie's assistance.

The Queen had given Meghan the option of continuing her acting career if she so desired, but Meghan was prepared for royal duty, which naturally made the Queen happy.

She was especially pleased by Meghan's excitement for the Commonwealth and her pledge to carry out anything she believed they should be doing for the Commonwealth.

Overall, it seems that both Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle are committed to their roles as members of the Royal Family, with or without the help of others.

While rumours may continue to circulate, it is important to respect their privacy and allow them to carry out their duties with the dignity and grace that they have both demonstrated thus far.
