Kate Middleton Pregnant Again? Prince William Drops Hint in New Zealand

Posted on April 13, 2014 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Is Kate Middleton pregnant again? It may been just a well-meaning comment made by Prince William, but he set the royal rumor mill in motion just the same. The alleged hint about baby #2 came as he told a New Zealand woman who made a gift for his son, Prince George: “You might have to make another one soon.” William made the remark to Cynthia Read, who had knitted them a shawl for their son on behalf of the New Zealand government. Read said afterward: “The way William said it was like he was dropping a hint, letting me in on a secret.” It would be surprising if we didn’t see Kate Middleton pregnant again before too long. They duo has made no secret of their desire give their 8-month-old a sibling. But William also said at a St. Patrick’s Day parade last month that “one’s enough for now” and his remark to Read may not have implied a specific “soon.” “Maybe,” she replied when asked if he was really hinting at that. “I couldn’t possibly comment. Obviously if I’m asked to do another one I would be honored.” Duchess Kate Middleton Wins in Race Against Prince William Open Slideshow 1.

Read, 61, spent four months making the shawl before meeting the royal couple on the north island of New Zealand, where they drew massive crowds. She said the Duchess was very pleased and flattered by the gift: “Kate told me they were really happy with it and George wore it a lot. She apologized for not so far finding an appropriate event outdoors to wrap him in it.” “I shouldn’t think he will wear it much more as he is nearly a little boy,” she said, adding, “It was wonderful to meet them, they were a charming couple.” For more of that little boy, check out pics of Kate and Prince George’s playdate the other day during their tour of the south Pacific nation … they’re the cutest: 11 Precious Prince George Playdate Photos Open Slideshow 1.

Prince George, Kate Middleton & Prince William: New Family Photo Released!

Posted on March 30, 2014 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Prince George, Kate Middleton and Prince William appear in a new family picture together for the first time since October, and it was worth the wait. William released the latest family photograph, a charming and stunning snapshot of their 8-month-old baby boy with the family dog Lupo, on Saturday: The Duke, 31, and Duchess Kate Middleton , 32, are seen perched by a windowsill at their home, Apartment 1A at Kensington Palace, with their son. Looking happy and flawless as always, Kate holds onto Prince George as he gazes at Lupo, who the heir to the throne has his arm wrapped around. The royal baby, needless to say, is beyond adorable with his hair growing out and his blue-colored sweater with “George” written across the front of it. Royals. They’re just like us. Sort of. They do seem quite approachable and down-to-earth as billionaires and future monarchs go. You get the impression you could be friends with the family. The beautiful family moment was captured by celebrity photographer Jason Bell, who was also on hand for Prince George’s christening last fall. Prince George: A Young Life in Photos Open Slideshow 1.

Prince George will next join the Duke and Duchess in his first-ever public tour in April when the royal family travels to Australia and New Zealand. His new nanny, Maria Teresa Borrallo, will also attend the three-week adventure, where we can only hope more adorable photographs will be taken.

Prince William to Be King in 2015? Queen Allegedly Skips Charles in Favor of Will, Kate

Posted on March 20, 2014 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Is Prince Charles NEVER going to get his day to rule? Sources tell the Globe that Queen Elizabeth is going to skip over her son and his wife Camilla entirely when she gives up the throne. They report coronation plans for Prince William and Duchess Kate Middleton are already in motion, set to take place in June 2015. I’m not going to say I think Globe is totally making this up – in the world of the British royals almost nothing would surprise me – but they’re probably making this up. Passing over a legitimate heir for no actual reason is basically unheard of. Abdicating? Fine. But that would be up to Prince Charles and would probably cause a huge scandal. The royals will do ANYTHING to avoid a scandal. I think it’s more likely QEII will just REFUSE to die until after Prince Charles kicks it, so never does become king. Poor guy. Maybe Globe is just hoping everyone forgets this cover by June 2015 when no coronation happens? It’s not like the tabloids are known for their reliability. Check out these 24 hilariously untrue celebrity gossip magazine covers: 24 Hilariously Untrue Tabloid Stories Open Slideshow 1. Tim McGraw and Faith Hill Tabloid Cover Tim McGraw and Faith Hill aren’t doing too well. Jealousy is to blame, according to this tabloid. View As List 1.

Will Smith and Margot Robbie Cover Will Smith and Margot Robbie are featured on this Star cover. Are they having an affair? 8. Gwyneth Paltrow Cheating! In Touch wants you to read all about Gwyneth Paltrow cheating. That doesn’t make it true, of course. 9. Angelina Jolie Risking Her Life Is Angelina Jolie risking her life for another baby?

Looking like she has a handle on motherhood, and like the style icon she’s come to be, the 32-year-old juggled little George while smiling at the media . The vacation marks young George’s first passport stamp since his birth, while William stayed behind for the University of Cambridge classes he’s taking.

Kate Middleton and Prince William Select Prince George Godparents: Who’d They Pick?

Posted on October 15, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kate Middleton and Prince William have named three godparents for their newborn baby Prince George, and their choices are a break from tradition. Bypassing Prince Harry, Pippa Middleton, and the usual royal suspects, Will and Kate instead tapped three old friends from childhood and college: Fergus Boyd, a friend from the University of St. Andrews Emilia d’Erlanger, a long-term friend of Prince William who also has known Kate Middleton since their time at Marlborough College Hugh van Cutsem, one of his oldest childhood pals No other members of the royal family have ever selected as godparents friends who didn’t have royal ties. William and Kate: They’re just like us! There’s talk, however, that George will have six godparents in all, meaning Prince Harry, Pippa Middleton and James Middleton still stand a good chance. Still, pretty cool move on the royals’ part as usual. A godparent is supposed to serve as a spiritual guide for a child, as well as a caretaker in the event that something happens to the child’s parents. It can be a huge responsibility, especially to parents who choose to baptize their babies and who take the selection of a godparent very seriously. William and Kate are very close to their siblings, so this isn’t a snub. As we said, they may end up as godparents as well. But either way, it’s interesting. Do you like their decision to pick friends, as a symbol of their appreciation of them and for the friends’ potential role in the life of Prince George ? Share your vantage point with us below.

PTC Slams MTV Video Music Awards as Manipulative, Inappropriate for Teenagers

Posted on August 26, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kelly Clarkson may have been joking around in her critique of the MTV Video Music Awards as including too many pitchy strippers , but The Parents Television Council does not see this as a laughing matter. In a scathing rebuke of the network and the event, the PTC released a statement today that focused on a rating that somehow claimed the show was appropriate for kids as young as 14. “MTV has once again succeeded in marketing sexually charged messages to young children using former child stars and condom commercials – while falsely rating this program as appropriate for kids as young as 14. This is unacceptable,” wrote PTC Director of Public Policy Dan Isett. “This much is absolutely clear: MTV marketed adults-only material to children while falsely manipulating the content rating to make parents think the content was safe for their children.” As you might expect, the main subjects of the PTC’s outage were Miley Cyrus and Lady Gaga . Continued the press release: “MTV continues to sexually exploit young women by promoting acts that incorporate ‘ twerking ’ in a nude-colored bikini. How is this image of former child star Miley Cyrus appropriate for 14-year-olds? How is it appropriate for children to watch Lady Gaga strip down to a bikini in the opening act? How is it appropriate for 14-year-olds to see a condom commercial and a promo for an R-rated movie during the first commercial break?” The statement goes on to say MTV should not get away with such acts merely because it is a cable network – and it includes a call to action. “We urge Congress to pass the Television Consumer Freedom Act which will give parents and consumers a real solution for future MTV VMA programs – the ability to choose and pay for cable networks that they want vs. having to pay for networks they don’t want. After MTV’s display last night, it’s time to give control back to consumers.” The PTC has previously come down on MTV for such programs as Jersey Shore, 16 and Pregnant, and Teen Mom.
