The royals gave the nation something to talk about on Monday when the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge announced they are expecting their third child.

Kensington Palace released a statement in which it was revealed that Kate is once again suffering from a form of severe morning sickness called Hyperemesis Gravidarum.

It was not revealed when the next royal baby is due.

So the Duchess of Cambridge is expecting. Big family, lives off the state, Channel 4 will make a documentary about them soon.#royalbaby

Of course, with the government's new 2 child limit, I presume William and Kate's third child will receive no state support. #royalbaby

I think they should call it "Sixtus" just to piss people off.

Presenter: "The Duchess of Cambridge is pregnant" -turns to reporter - "Can you tell us any more?" Reporter: "No, not really" 😂

Poor Kate Middleton. Despite the fact that she gets severe morning sickness, she's required to have babies until national morale improves.

Just stating now that I think 'Prince William and his 3 children' should instead be known as 'Baldilocks and the 3 heirs'#royalbaby

— Amanda (@Pandamoanimum) September 4, 2017

The royal couple’s third child will be fifth in line to the British throne. William, 35, is the eldest son of Prince Charles, the first in line to the throne, and a grandson of the queen. The announcement means Prince Harry is now sixth in line to the throne.
