A lesser spotted Kate

It may well be the last time we see her before she has baby number two and for one of her final outings as a mama in waiting, queen in waiting Kate of Cambridge went for spots. The duchess visited Brookhill Children's Centre in Woolwich to learn more about the work of Homestart. And as she settled down to chat to mums and babies, the soon to be double mummy looked in her element.

The Duchess of Cambridge chose a black and white spotty dress from ASOS for her latest appearance. It costs £35 and, after ten days of maternity recycling, shows that Kate is making like a lot of mummies and just making do with what was already in the wardrobe or buying frugally when the second bump made its appearance.  She spent several hours at the centre hearing about the charity's work to build confidence and improve the lives of children.


There was a chance to Kate to see some volunteers with Homestart learning the ropes and the duchess also attended a coffee morning where she met mummies, daddies and babies and answered a question that's been asked many times since the announcement of her second pregnancy - when her baby is actually due. Confirming that Cambridge number two is expected in mid to late April, Kate added 'not long now'.

And then the duchess, in her High Street dress, headed home equipped with presents for Prince George and lots more warm wishes for baby number two. The spotty frock, similar to a white and black Top Shop number that she wore several times while expecting George, could be the final chapter of this pregnancy's public appearances. From now on, until the duchess appears on the steps of St Mary's in Paddington, she is a lesser spotted Kate.
