The Great Kate Wait goes on

Most people thought we'd know by now. Ever since the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge announced their second pregnancy, there's been a general consensus that the baby would be born in April and by the time May was hovering on the horizon there would be a new fourth in line to the throne. Instead, the Great Kate Wait goes on. And even the papers have stopped putting it on their front page as they run out of things to say.

Still a bump - Kate in her second pregnancy

Kate made the front of the Express on both Saturday and Sunday but as Monday morning dawned there just wasn't enough to say to justify putting the duchess photo there to entice readers in. In fact, over the weekend Kate was pretty much honours even with Prince Harry when it came to front pages after Captain Wales came back from Australia briefly and hit the front of The Herald in an image showing him paying tribute on the 100th anniversary of the start of the Gallipoli campaigns.

The Sunday Express was the only national to feature the Duchess of Cambridge on its front page 

By the end of the week all that will be very different. Kate is now several days overdue according to most estimations and as well as Mother Nature having something to say about that, there's a good chance her doctors will suggest getting things moving as well. Fans are already gathering at the Lindo Wing ahead of the big exit with baby number two while the world's media is hovering just waiting for the all clear to take up their positions - no one is allowed anywhere near until she is admitted in labour. But for now, everyone including the duchess, remains on the Great Kate Wait.
