As with other senior members of the British Royal Family, Prince William and Princess Kate always have plenty to do during the weeks. Indeed, their duties can also include working weekends, and the couple have traveled far from home several times.<\/strong><\/p>\n

When they welcomed their first child eight years ago though \u2013 future king Prince George \u2013 their perspective on life reportedly changed somewhat. Today, William and Kate have three children, and it seems as though the pair are endeavoring to raise them in a modern fashion, in keeping with what many believe will be a pivotal theme in the monarchy\u2019s continued existence. That is to say modernization.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis are all confirmed to be attending King Charles\u2019 coronation on May 6.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Louis, the youngest of the bunch, just celebrated his fifth birthday, and there has been speculation as to whether or not the Prince and Princess of Wales might consider the prospect of adding to their brood.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Earlier this week, Kate visited a baby bank in Maidenhead, where she spoke to staff and helped fold baby clothes. During the engagement, the Princess seemed to divulge information concerning her and William\u2019s thoughts on a possible fourth child.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Suffice it to say that Prince William and Princess Kate have plenty on their hands. The coronation of King Charles is only weeks away, and the entire Royal Family is set to participate in the big celebration, which will include a procession to and from Westminster Abbey.<\/p>\n

Things have reportedly been quite tumultuous in the last few months, what with the rumors surrounding Harry and Meghan\u2019s potential participation ongoing. William and Kate\u2019s relationship with the Sussexes is at its lowest point ever \u2013 the Princess of Wales in particular appears to have put her foot down.<\/p>\n

Kate Middleton \u201cprevented\u201d Meghan from attending coronation, expert claims<\/h2>\n

Charles officially invited Harry and Meghan, but Harry is set to go it alone. Meghan, meanwhile, will remain in the US with the couple\u2019s children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. But is she only staying behind because it\u2019s the easiest thing for the Sussex family?<\/p>\n

According to royal expert and author Tom Bower, Princess Kate had a say in the decision and didn\u2019t \u201cunder any circumstances\u201d want Meghan in attendance.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Bower termed the fact that Harry will attend alone an \u201cugly compromise.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI think we must all be grateful that Kate, in the end, I think, prevented Meghan coming and said she wouldn\u2019t have her there under any circumstances,\u201d Bower said during an appearance on GB News, as reported by\u00a0Express<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do think that for the Royal Family, Harry\u2019s presence is constitutionally important, after all if God forbid something happensit ated to the Cambridges, and all of them died, we\u2019d have King Harry on the throne after Charles, so he\u2019s got to be there.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThe question is, what is role will be when he gets to London? and I think that the arguments over the last few days have been very much to minimise his presence in the Abbey.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moreover, the expert claimed that Kate had warned Meghan that if she attended, she\u2019d have to \u201csit in the back.\u201d<\/p>\n

A royal source told Page Six that Meghan decided against attending the coronation as she felt it would be \u201cinauthentic.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey had to make a decision that felt genuine and authentic, especially after everything that has been said and all the things that have gone down,\u201d an insider familiar with the family\u00a0said<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Details of Kate\u2019s coronation clothes come to light<\/h2>\n

Recently, details surrounding the coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla were revealed. It will, of course, be a grand event, made all the more special for William and Kate as their eldest son, Prince George, will play a notable role.<\/p>\n

Some aspects, like what clothes the royals will wear, have not been disclosed. Weeks ago, though, Kate offered some insight into what she\u2019ll be clothed in. Alison Hammond, host of television program\u00a0This Morning,<\/em>\u00a0met William and Kate in Birmingham during their visit to celebrate the diverse culture and creative industries in the area.<\/p>\n

She asked what Kate would be wearing at the coronation, and Kate responded that there was a \u201chint of blue\u201d in the outfit.<\/p>\n

Naturally, royals have many traditions to follow, and this often extends to attire. We\u2019ve often seen them wear blue, but what does it mean?<\/p>\n

According to fashion expert and personal stylist Samantha Harman, the royals often wear blue to convey that the monarchy is in \u201csafe hands.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIn colour psychology, blue is associated with trustworthiness;\u201d she told Express. \u201cCamilla and Kate will be well aware of the role they need to play, and every part of their public looks are planned meticulously. Especially for a royal tour.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cIt\u2019s no coincidence that they\u2019re wearing more blue \u2013 blue means stability and reliability. So, they\u2019re conveying the message that the future is in safe hands.\u201d<\/p>\n

Celebration of Louis\u2019 birthday<\/h2>\n

In the midst of figuring out their schedule, staying healthy and happy, and attending all sorts of engagements in the UK, Prince William and Princess Kate had a memorable day with their children last week. On April 23, Prince Luis celebrated his 5th birthday.<\/p>\n

One would imagine that royal children are thrown huge celebratory events, but for Louis\u2019 birthday, it appears that wasn\u2019t the case. According to royal expert and historian Tessa Dunlop, Kate Middleton isn\u2019t fond of huge birthday parties for her children. Instead, Louis\u2019 birthday was \u201cconventional,\u201d as she likes to keep it traditional.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s always about spending time together, [Kate\u2019s] quite conventional in an old-fashioned sense of the word, I don\u2019t think she\u2019ll shy away from the fact she comes from a conventional family,\u201d Dunlop told\u00a0OK!<\/a>.<\/p>\n

She added that Louis\u2019 birthday party would have been full of \u201cparty crackers and party games\u201d and \u201cmucking in and mucking about\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe doesn\u2019t lend out easily to the celeb world, she\u2019s a more conventional, posh girl, really,\u201d Dunlop added.<\/p>\n

Prince William and Kate Middleton have made it a habit over the years to release new pictures of their beloved children to mark their birthdays. Often, it\u2019s Kate who\u2019s the photographer, as she has a significant interest in cameras that goes back decades.<\/p>\n

For Louis\u2019 birthday, the couple shared a photo of their now-five-year-old smiling, dressed in a blue wooly jumper and blue shorts.<\/p>\n

Kate Middleton \u2018rules out\u2019 fourth child with 4 words<\/h2>\n

\u201cKate is really old school, hands-on, picnics, days on the beach kind of mum, they\u2019ll be no doubt lots of balloons \u2013 the birthday accessories will be there,\u201d Dunlop told OK!.<\/p>\n

Of course, babies, and the next generation is always a hot topic where the royals are concerned. William and Kate have three children, but there has been speculation as to whether they would entertain the idea of having a fourth child.<\/p>\n

It seems as though the royal couple may have made their mind up on that front, at least based on what Kate said during a recent trip to the town of Maidenhead.<\/p>\n

During a surprise visit to the Baby Bank in Maidenhead, Kate helped staff fold tiny baby clothes, remarking how she had forgotten how small infants can be.<\/p>\n

The Princess was shown bags and boxes of toys, equipment, and clothes received by the Baby Bank, which were then distributed to families in need.<\/p>\n

Kate has been a longtime supporter of Baby Bank. The initiative began eight years ago, and today supports up to 22,000 people. During her visit, Kate asked CEOs Rebecca and Lauren Hall all kinds of questions. Yet one of her comments seemed to shed light on the prospect of her and William welcoming another child to their beautiful family.<\/p>\n

While helping volunteers sort through donated clothes, Rebecca joked: \u201cI look at them and think I don\u2019t want to go through that again.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kate agreed, laughing, and said: \u201cI\u2019ve been there and done that.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey do grow so quickly\u201d<\/h2>\n

Kate also revealed that her daughter, Princess Charlotte, has one particular Disney franchise she loves.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy daughter is a huge fan of Toy Story,\u201d the Princess of Wales revealed, adding that her son Louis just had turned five.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt only feels like yesterday that they were this tiny. They do grow so quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n

During the coronation, there will be activities nationwide to celebrate King Charles and Queen Camilla. However, the royals are said to want to use the iconic event to promote the helping of others.<\/p>\n

Brits will get an extra bank holiday on the Monday after the coronation and are invited to join \u201cThe Big Help Out,\u201d which entails volunteering in their communities. Kate Middleton spoke about the importance of volunteering and participating in The Big Help Out on May 6.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cIt\u2019s important for people to know that you don\u2019t have to commit to a full day if you can have a slot in the morning. It\u2019s match-making people within the community who want to go and do something with the right organisation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Though the Prince and Princess of Wales might not want a fourth child now, that could all change, if reports are to be believed.<\/p>\n

Having a fourth child could be \u201cdangerous\u201d, expert claims<\/h2>\n

That raises the question, could adding another child hurt William and Kate in any way? According to ITV News\u2019 royal editor, Chris Ship, it very well could. He says that William is doing ever more campaigning on environmental issues, and a fourth child could lead to criticism from the \u201cgreen lobby.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA lot of people say that actually, in the interest of the planet, you shouldn\u2019t be having four children,\u201d Ship\u00a0said<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m sure William might open himself up to some criticism from that, sort of, green lobby if he were to have a fourth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Moreover, the royal expert added that, of course, it\u2019s William and Kate\u2019s own choice to have another child or not. But his \u201cpersonal prediction\u201d is that the couple is \u201cdone with three.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s entirely possible, you know, Kate might have a fourth. Although, you know, remember William and Kate are in their forties,\u201d Chris concluded.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf they wanted a fourth, I\u2019m sure they will.\u201d<\/p>\n
