I’ll cover Duchess Kate-at-Downton Abbey in a separate post, if and when we get those photos. For now, this is just a catch-up post and I’m using some additional photos of Kate in Margate yesterday, wearing the repeat Hobbs coat (which I still like). Incidentally, I kept saying that this week’s events would probably be her final public outings until the baby comes, but I was wrong: Kate and William are going to make their annual outing on St. Patrick’s Day to visit the Irish Guards. Will she wear the same green coatdress that she wore in 2012 & 2013? Or will she repeat the 2014 green coatdress? So many questions.

As for the catch-up info… Kate didn’t make any official public statements during her Margate outing, but she did talk to some of the peasants and the peasants dutifully relayed Kate’s words to the press. When told that she looked “very trim,” Kate admitted to one woman, “I sometimes forget I’m pregnant.” She also said Prince George has been “running around quite a lot,” and made it sound like George is still a handful (good). Apparently, the peasants called her “Princess Catherine” a lot, which sounds completely made up by People Magazine, considering they’re one of the few publications to insist on calling her “Princess Catherine.”

Meanwhile, this week’s Enquirer claims that Kate has absolutely had it with William’s bald dome. A source claims:

“Kate thinks he looks old before his time. She says that William either needs to get a hair transplant or shave his head completely, so that he looks younger and more dynamic…She’s told poor William that he needs a complete style makeover… [but] As the future king, he has no option but to grow old gracefully.”

I don’t know… Kate famously made a very public crack about William’s thinning hair, and (just my opinion) it’s a very sensitive subject for him. We know he’s a mercurial, fussy baby on a normal day, so I can imagine he’s an utter bastard if someone dares to comment on his baldness. Do you think Kate would tell him to shave his dome? I don’t even know if that would make a huge difference with his look though.

As for Kate’s due date… the palace seems to be indicating that it will be late April. I guess no one wants a repeat of The Great Kate Wait of 2013.
