Over the years, Prince William and Kate Middleton have followed a tradition of releasing new photos of their children to celebrate their birthdays. Often, it is Kate behind the camera, as her passion for photography has been evident for decades.

To celebrate Louis’ birthday, the couple posted a photo of their now-five-year-old beaming, wearing a blue wooly jumper paired with blue shorts.

Kate Middleton uses four words to “rule out” a fourth child.

“Kate is really old school, hands-on, picnics, days on the beach kind of mum, they’ll be no doubt lots of balloons – the birthday accessories will be there,” Dunlop told OK!.

Naturally, babies and the next generation are always popular topics when it comes to the royals. While William and Kate already have three children, there has been ongoing speculation about whether they might consider having a fourth.

It appears the royal couple may have made up their minds, judging by a comment Kate made during a recent visit to Maidenhead.

During an unannounced stop at the Baby Bank in Maidenhead, Kate helped staff fold tiny baby clothes, commenting on how she had forgotten just how small infants can be.

The Princess was shown boxes and bags of toys, clothes, and equipment donated to the Baby Bank, which are then distributed to families in need.

Kate has long been a supporter of Baby Bank. The initiative, which started eight years ago, now helps up to 22,000 people. During her visit, Kate asked the CEOs, Rebecca and Lauren Hall, numerous questions. However, one remark in particular seemed to hint at the possibility of her and William expanding their family.

Rebecca remarked, “I look at them and think I don’t want to go through that again,” as she assisted volunteers in sorting through donated clothing.

“I’ve been there and done that,” Kate answered, chuckling.

“They do grow so quickly”

Kate also shared that her daughter, Princess Charlotte, has a particular Disney franchise she loves.

“My daughter is a huge fan of Toy Story,” the Princess of Wales disclosed, adding that her son Louis had just turned five.

“It only feels like yesterday that they were this tiny. They do grow so quickly.”

During the coronation, activities will take place across the country to honor King Charles and Queen Camilla. However, the royals are reportedly keen on using the significant occasion to encourage helping others.

Britons will enjoy an extra bank holiday on the Monday following the coronation and are encouraged to participate in “The Big Help Out,” which involves volunteering in their local communities. Kate Middleton discussed the importance of volunteering and getting involved in The Big Help Out on May 6.

She stated: “It’s important for people to know that you don’t have to commit to a full day if you can have a slot in the morning. It’s match-making people within the community who want to go and do something with the right organisation.”

If rumors are to be believed, the Prince and Princess of Wales may decide they do not want a fourth child at this time.

According to experts, having a fourth kid could be “dangerous.”

This brings up the question: Could having another child negatively impact William and Kate in any way? According to ITV News’ royal editor, Chris Ship, it’s quite possible. He explains that William is increasingly involved in environmental campaigning, and having a fourth child could attract criticism from the “green lobby.”

“A lot of people say that actually, in the interest of the planet, you shouldn’t be having four children,” Ship said.

“I’m sure William might open himself up to some criticism from that, sort of, green lobby if he were to have a fourth.”

Additionally, the royal expert pointed out that ultimately, it’s up to William and Kate whether they choose to have another child. However, his “personal prediction” is that the couple is “done with three.”

“It’s entirely possible, you know, Kate might have a fourth. Although, you know, remember William and Kate are in their forties,” Chris concluded.

“If they wanted a fourth, I’m sure they will.”
