The Duchess of Cambridge has hinted that she may be planning her fourth child with Prince William.
Kate revealed that she was feeling “broody” during a royal visit to Ballymena in Northern Ireland.
The 37-year-old spoke about baby number four as she met a member of the public’s child, five-month-old baby James.

Cooing over the little one, Kate told James’ dad Alan Barr: “He’s gorgeous. It makes me feel broody.”
When Alan then asked Kate if she and William, 36, are planning to expand their family, she joked that her husband may have reservations!
She laughed and replied: “I think William might be slightly worried.”
The couple already have their hands full with Prince George, five, Princess Charlotte, three, and ten-month-old Prince Louis.
The Duchess spent time chatting with other children that had waited to greet her during her walkabout.

During her trip, Kate also spoke with nine-year-old Hannah Ritchie, who told her she was writing a biography about the royal.
Hannah said: “I asked if she liked being a princess, and is the palace big? She said she liked being a princess because she can travel around the world and meet all the lovely children. She gets to talk to them – she loves meeting and talking to the children.”
Kate also told Hannah: “I love working with young people. Everyone is so brave and strong in some of the places we go. It’s very nice to meet you. Good luck with the biography!”
It seems the Duchess’ pregnant sister-in-law Meghan Markle may have struck up her broodiness.
