Baby Catherines
Chelsea-based toy company Arklu is
considering creating a pregnant version of its best-selling Duchess of
Cambridge doll, due to popular demand. The Palace has to date denied rumours
the 29-year-old is expecting her first child.
"We've had a lot of requests for a
pregnant Kate doll from the US,' Arklu's Lucie Follett told theDaily Mail. "We've also had many requests for a Pippa doll."

Thursday November 17, 10.11am:A
spokesperson for the Duchess of Cambridge had no comment to make this morning in
the wake of a new wave of US tabloid rumours that the newlywed may be expecting.
America's In Touch magazine
claims that a "royal source" has revealed that Catherine is
"around six weeks pregnant" - and went on to further embellish the
rumours with the addition of possible names ("Edward, Philip and Michael
are likely choices for a boy, or Alice or Rose for a girl"); the building
of three nurseries for each of their homes; and the information that the couple
are hoping for a daughter.
Unsurprisingly the Palace refused to be
drawn on any discussion about the alleged pregnancy.

Monday November 7, 9.17am: Speculation thatCatherine, Duchess of Cambridge, might be pregnant grew to
fever pitch over the weekend, after the newlywed declined to taste peanut paste
whilst on an official visit to Denmark with her husband -
but the Palace will not be drawn on such claims.
"This is just speculation," a
spokesperson for the Duchess told us this morning. "This is not something
we would confirm or deny."
Despite Department of Health assertions
that peanuts are safe for pregnant women, some women - particularly those with
a family history of allergies - are reluctant to eat them amid claims that they
increase the risk of the baby developing a nut allergy.
