The Duchess of Cambridge, 30, is expecting her first child, the Palace has confirmed.
"Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting a baby," read the statement released Monday. "The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall and Prince Harry and members of both families are delighted with the news."
"The Duchess was admitted this afternoon to King Edward VII Hospital in Central London with Hyperemesis Gravidarum," the statement continued. "As the pregnancy is in its very early stages, Her Royal Highness is expected to stay in hospital for several days and will require a period of rest thereafter."
William is with her at the hospital and the morning sickness is "acute," the palace says.
The couple have made no secret of their desire to have start a family. Prince William said in their joint interview on the day they announced their engagement that they'd move cautiously "one step at a time."
"We'll sort of get over the marriage first and then maybe look at the kids," he told ITN. "But obviously we want a family so we'll have to start thinking about that."
