Prince William's girlfriend Kate Middleton is believed to have had a pregnancy scare. The 26-year-old was apparently left "panicked" after recently becoming convinced she was expecting the 26-year-old royal's baby.
A source close to the British royal family said told Australia's Woman's Day magazine: "The panic started a few weeks ago, when Kate told William that she thought she was pregnant."
"William was left speechless. They're always very responsible and this shouldn't have happened."
"After weeks of worrying about their future, William and Kate learned they're pregnancy concerns were ill-founded and it was just a scare."
The news has apparently sparked "uproar" in the royal household. Neither Kate nor an official royal spokesperson has commented on the incident.
Kate, 26, has been dating William since 2001. Rumors have long been rife of an impending marriage, but recent reports have suggested any nuptials would be a long way off due to the amount of high-ranking officials who would need to be consulted.

I don't think they need anyones approval for this marriage, but the families. And not Camilla's as she is not family. She shouldn't even be involved with any desition made when it concernes them. She is an old and spitful women who deservse nothing back. I hope the two of you do get married and have a long and happy life together as it should be. I know Diana would be proud and happy for them both as I am and many others are too.

Prince William is a VIRGIN. What are you talking about?

Pregnancy seems the only way that she'll be able to tie this one down. I don't believe the waiting until thirty thing. If he really wanted her, he wouldn't wait until he was thirty. He's just buying time to see if something better shows up.

I like Prince William. I was just wondering if in British Royalty if it is possible to skip a generation? I think William should be king instead of his father? Is this possible in the British Royalty?
Who cares if he has had sex or not? Geez he is 28. Lighten up.
I just can not see Charles and Camilla ruling a country.

I agree with all the comments above

"After weeks of worrying about their future, William and Kate learned they're pregnancy concerns were ill-founded and it was just a scare."
Where's the proofreader? "THEIR pregnancy concerns" not "they're" Geez louise. Learn to use the king's English.

My comment? Who cares!

Look, for one thing he IS royalty so when he chooses to be married it will be taken heavily into consideration the bride.
Also, it is very possible to skip generations rulers do it all the time.
Queen Victoria wanted to skip Barty her oldest son in favor of any of her other kids because she thought he would be a terrible ruler, shame she didn't.

Quick abortion time in the royal household??
June 20, 2010 - 09:08PM
"I was just wondering if in British Royalty if it is possible to skip a generation?"
No, I this isn't possible because it would require the countries of the commonwealth to meet together and agree to it. Let's face it, all of those countries aren't going to say yes. I can't imagine more than about two or three countries agreeing with each other at one time.

actually Anom.it is their (meaning ownership of something). They're is short for They are.obviously not the right choice of words. Thanks for the English lesson though:)

Marry into the royal family and you're signing up for a lifetime profession, not just two people in love. Whoever gets the job needs to know how to stand up to the pressure and put in the work. A bit of consultation with those "high-ranking officials" could save Kate and William a lot of grief later.
I reckon its a good thing they wait, and Kate is really aware of the gravity of what she's signing up for. We don't need another Diana or Fergie scandal.
June 23, 2010 - 09:51AM - Nancy
Just what does the Queen expect? She has
allowed them to shack up in Buckingham Palace
for some time. It is something that would
have never happened in her time.
Princess Diana was forced to be examined
by a gyn doctor to determine whether
or not she was a virgin before marrying
Prince Charles. Will Kate Middleton
be made to take this same test? Will she
be held up to the same standards as Diana?
I think Prince William should find himself
another woman who is already a princess in
her own right and knows the ropes.
I think he is making a big mistake
by marrying this woman who is neither
noble or royal.

Agree totally with the above comment. Prince William should not marry to the Wisteria family above all she is not blue blood nor noble. Princess Diana and Camilla are blue bloods. Waitie Katie is a commoner social climber.
Prince William will save himself lots of scandals if he marries a Princess in her own right since he is a Prince.
June 24, 2010 - 12:50PM - Julie
Good on ya, laddie. Way to beef up that pointy-headed royal gene pool! Nothing like a commoner to bring some genetic strength and beauty back into the family! As for pregnancy scares, this is as private a matter as anything could be, so let's stop peeking in the palace windows, shall we?
June 29, 2010 - 12:04AM - mikhael
You mean they are already doing it even before they are married? And on top of that, are they not ready yet to face the possible consequences of such acts?
July 2, 2010 - 02:48AM
That girl needs to wake up. He's stringing her along. He has no intention of marrying her.
July 25, 2010 - 04:50AM - HK
Will & Kate's strategy is to bore us all to tears. It's working. By the time they marry we won't even want to flick on the TV set to watch.
July 25, 2010 - 05:03AM - kindlewood
Born & brought up in a royal family he should have some moral values.Why do they want to hang out together even before they marry?They r not engaged too.He should be a role model for the country.Queen Elizabeth should lay some rules to the family.
August 15, 2010 - 04:07PM - Yolanda Alexandra
Dear Prince William,
I think you should be a example of integrity. Where are you values?
Having sex before married. Shame on you. Now you have to married this innocent girl.
Come on, just be yourself and be happy.
Love your smile

September 13, 2010 - 03:53PM
hey Yolanda we are in 2010 ,wake up.Royal or Not now days for the past 30yrs all the youngs are putting the cart in front of the horses.they shackup makes babies and they might get married..and kindlewood get real the Queen lost her grip on the Royals as soon as Diana and Sarah showed up in the pictures..they realy mess up the life of the Royals big time..
Harry and William are living their life the best they can trying to respect the Old Ones but also being right there with the new generation .My hat to them
September 14, 2010 - 09:52PM - Dee
I think they should get married coz they've known each other very well since they've started dating in 2001!

Thank goodness they have had time to really get to know each other. They look so happy and William looks so relaxed. I'm sure people in the U.K. are very happy for them. Lady Di's little boy is going to have a very happy life with a very supportive wife. The fact that William gave Kate his mother's ring is very touching indeed - it shows how much he thinks of her.

This marriage appears aproved by God, since they have courted for almost a decade.please invite me for the wedding ceremony
November 20, 2010 - 08:23AM - ROSIE J
sHE IS A STUCK-UP LITTLE RICH GIRL, WHO KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT THE PEOPLE THAT SHE SO DESPARATELY WANTS TO 'RULE'. QUEENIE KNOWS, SHE LISTENS, BUT MIDDLETON AND FAMILY-CO ARE SIMPLY SOCIAL CLIMBERS! SHE WOULD HAVE WAITED UNTIL DOOMS-DAY AND USED EVERY TRICK IN BOOK, SHE WOULDN'T HAVE LET THAT MAN GO!
November 21, 2010 - 11:12AM
"Weeks of worrying"? In this day and age a pregnancy test takes 24 hours!!
November 21, 2010 - 06:39PM - Karen
COBGRATS to both William and Kate. I am glad that he is marrying for love and not for a title as some of the commenators have suggested. May you two have a long and happy life fill with lots of love, laughter, fun, children and grandchildren!
November 22, 2010 - 06:26AM - codadeldu
wishing Will and Kate an uncommon royal marital bliss as they tie the nuptial knots in 2011. They're a new generation royal love birds.
November 22, 2010 - 03:54PM - Naz not spaz
I'm sure they've got some sort of relationship if they've been together for 9 yrs and they've lived together so we can't expect the couple to not be involved in some sexual act and even though I do not believe in sex before marriage atleast the dude is marryin her so we should give him that much courage. If the katie woman who became rich due to her father creatin manky toys loses Diana's ring she is bound to get quarted and beheaded in the tower of Londo.

Wow I never knew this happened thanks for the info and I wish the couple my best.

I like cheese and bread, but not ham 'cause I hate the color red and pink. I like sandwiches a lot, like really a lot. Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fala, Tis' the season to be jolly, fala.
January 23, 2011 - 11:35PM
It's obvious that Prince William really loves Kate & so he will obviously be a good husband to her.
Prince William&Kate should be allowed make their own decisions.
Camillia should not have any say in this as she's not a caring person.
Knowing Diana, she's happy for her older son
March 9, 2011 - 05:26AM
i think is lovely they are gettin married, good luck and as long as they are happy then they will be great leaders,
March 12, 2011 - 06:22PM
Omg She Is Not Pregant Is She?
March 12, 2011 - 06:23PM
Or About Willam Is He Scared?
March 12, 2011 - 06:25PM
i think it is lovely that they are getting married.good luck and as long as they are happy then they will be great leaders.

What kind of guarantee did the male in the marriage have to give that he was pure and faithful? What credentials do the other contenders for the throne have that puts them ahead of William and Kate (and I am not referring to order by "right" and bloodline). Kingship was first considered as someone outstanding and an astute model among the throng or multitude. What do we really want in a king and queen symbolism anyway? Thoughtful Canadian
April 14, 2011 - 02:38AM - theressa.buckingham
i hope for the a bright future,well hell they older enough to do whatever they want,if she pregnant that her and his business,well they have a family life to come.well to them both be happy,be blessed,and stop letting other people run your lives
April 14, 2011 - 02:42AM - theressa.buckingham
i forgot my last thing is buckingham,my father was a buckingham,that is the name of grandma castle,do not get me wrong,maybe my daddy is one of the buckinghams ancestor,anyway i still mean what i said -the press
April 17, 2011 - 09:00AM - Laika
Given that none of the contraceptive methods is totally safe, it is not surprising that after years sleeping together she gets pregnant at least once. Just calculate how many chances it makes with a 1% failure rate over 3 years.
April 17, 2011 - 09:18PM - Ashley
all of you need to shut your mouths this wedding is kate and williams not anyone elses so just shut up and fyi who cares if shes preggers no one cares what u think of her obviously she doesnt so just shut up p.s. people will be watching on april 29 buhby
April 19, 2011 - 08:04AM - rene
I to think she is pregnant. iwould say about 2 weeks after the honeymoon they will announce it, she hung in there 10 years not for nothing, i also saw a programme on her ancesters and there is a great great greAT BLACK AUNT, SO WHO KNOWS.
April 21, 2011 - 03:21AM - Ellie
I think it is great they are getting married. They will be great leaders and will have great children and bring them up greatlly if they do have children. I think Kate is the perfect bride for Prince William.
April 28, 2011 - 01:49PM
This sounds so tabloid-y. I cannot believe a word.
April 29, 2011 - 03:54PM - Lilymax
Actually William and Kate are married they married today. The queen was there and her dress was lovely. And so was Kate's. And about the pregnancy thing well at least they are married now so if she IS pregnant they will be wed when it is born. IF. I dont think she is and if she is then there happy together, so why shouldn't they have kids? But I SERIOUSLY dontthink she is.
April 30, 2011 - 04:16PM - Amanda from Norway
William + Catherine Elisabeth = PERFECT!
May 2, 2011 - 03:52PM - Anne
All the best to both of you. The wedding was lovely and the part I really enjoyed was seeing the two of you driving down the road in the covertible.it was priceless. Enjoy each other.
May 3, 2011 - 05:59AM
I loved the gown, Kate looked gorgeous. Ooh! it was worth a wait because the whole even was great.Kate was simply elegant.
May 3, 2011 - 02:51PM - susan
Social climber, yes we have to call him a Willie because the commoner is making him so, this is truly a failure of any morals and standards, if Diana could see this she will be not happy
May 3, 2011 - 02:52PM - susan
Kate - Waitie well done, 9 years was worth, and I don't belive he was not sleeping with anybody else we have to see. Britain is a asylum for all immigrants like USA shame on this country.
May 13, 2011 - 04:59AM - jay
good for them in being normal. what couple in their 20s living together wouldn't be having regular if not frequent sex. it will make for a more solid relationship now that they're married.
May 18, 2011 - 08:09AM
please the couple alone rich or poor they love each other and they will be happy with or without our coments so back of and leave them alone
May 21, 2011 - 02:53PM - wen
some of you people should appreciate them.what if you got married and they thought you didn't belong together?
May 21, 2011 - 02:57PM - wen
your wrong susan, on t.v, diana told him to find his true love and hold onto it!
