Royale baby boom
For weeks, London's Kensington Palace has been mounting anxious inquiries: Where is Duchess Kate (32)? Is she okay? It's been a month since you saw her. No appointments, no public duties
Quite different in Sweden: There shows Crown Princess Victoria (36) overjoyed in public and radiates more beautiful than the sun. She just opened a fairytale trail in Östergötland with husband Daniel (40) and daughter Estelle (2). And it's not just the golden mini-princess who caught the eye, it also seems as if a tummy will show under Victoria's dress. Victoria shines, Kate hides - and there could be the same sensational reason: both are back in different circumstances! Double Baby Happiness in the Royal Houses!
On April 26, Duchess Kate returned from Australia with William (31) and Little George (10 months). Then it became quiet around her. In court circles one whispers meaningfully: "She must spare herself!" We remember: Kate was so sick at her first pregnancy that she came to London's St. Mary's Hospital as a precautionary measure. That could be repeated with the second child. No wonder, now that she yearns for peace and lets herself be pampered by her parents in rural Bucklebury.
Victoria, however, seems to be doing well. However, it was noticeable on the fairy tale path that she swapped her chic high-heeled pumps for flat ballerinas. That can be a treat, especially during pregnancy . How much Victoria and Daniel wish a second child, the prince already knew: "It would be great if Estelle would soon have a sibling!"
