Baby Fever! Kate Middleton, Meghan Markle, Princess Eugenie Pregnant? Bettors Believe So

The baby fever is on in the royal family with rumors about pregnancies continuing to pop up. Fans of the royals are going wild with speculations as three of Queen Elizabeth’s grandchildren are alleged to have babies soon.

Princess Eugenie’s marriage to Jack Brooksbank last autumn has found them dogged with pregnancy rumors in the past few months, and Kate Middleton’s recent hairstyle change has royal experts claiming she’s pregnant. Although Meghan Markle gave birth to Archie Harrison just a few months back, fans are also expecting the former actress to follow with baby number 2 soon.

After a record-breaking influx of bets following New York Fashion Week, bookies suspended all further calls on Princess Eugenie’s speculated pregnancy last week. The 29-year-old’s marriage to Brooksbank is almost hitting their first anniversary, and the likelihood of a bun in the oven is high.

The odds had fallen to almost 8/13 before the bookies called for the betting to stop. “The odds of Eugenie and Jack sharing some good news soon have taken another plunge with the latest betting definitely suggests an announcement may be around the corner," said a spokesperson of Bookmakers.tv.

The speculation didn’t stop with Eugenie as betting increased for two more royals to announce pregnancies by 2020. “As always, Royal watchers would love to see another royal baby, with some punters even suggesting that the Queen may have three new grand-children during 2020, as odds plummet to 5/1,” the spokesperson said.

Aside from Prince Andrew’s daughter, the wives of Prince Harry and Prince William are also expected to announce pregnancies within the next year. Following Kate’s attendance last week at the Back to Nature garden launch at Wisley, the odds on the Duchess of Cambridge were dramatically shortened to 1/2. This inadvertently slashed the odds for the Duchess of Sussex as well, whose chances of announcing a pregnancy moved to 4/7.

“There’ll be plenty for royalists to sink their teeth into next year if the latest odds are anything to go by, with a royal wedding and two babies potentially on the way,” commented Alex Apati, the PR executive of Ladbrokes.
