Let the baby bump watch begin. Kate Middleton is pregnant again with her second child, which means adorable, 1-year-old Prince George will soon be a big brother.
"Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are very pleased to announce that The Duchess of Cambridge is expecting their second child," Kensington Palace announced in a statement. "The Queen and members of both families are delighted with the news."

Middleton was spotted last month wearing a blue dress as she visited the poppy installation at the Tower of London with Prince William and Harry. She doesn't look to be showing much yet (maybe just an itty-bitty baby bump), however sources indicate she is very early in her pregnancy, around the eight week mark, and is due around April 2015.
As with her last pregnancy, the Palace confirms she is suffering from severe morning sickness, which is why they made the difficult decision to announce her pregnancy early, instead of waiting until she was out of her first trimester.
"As with her first pregnancy, The Duchess is suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum. Her Royal Highness will no longer accompany The Duke of Cambridge on their planned engagement in Oxford today. The Duchess is being treated by doctors at Kensington Palace," the statement continued.

Ashton Kutcher shared this candid photo as he poses with his makeup-free fiancé, Mila Kunis, who is due with the couple's first child any day now. Kutcher wears a Chicago Bears jersey and hat, while pregnant Kunis wears a colorful red printed shirt. In case you were wondering, the Bears lost 20-23 to the Buffalo Bills.
The sporty couple has frequently been spotted at Dodgers baseball games. In fact, one of Kunis' favorite maternity tops is her blue Dodgers tee.
Kunis is gearing up for an all-natural birth. "She's not nervous at all. She's been really calm and chill about it all," an insider told E! News.

Kristen Bell
I smell a new maternity style trend. Carrie Underwood isn't the only pregnant star to wear a floral jumpsuit, as Kristen Bell was spotted showing off her baby bump in a yellow and tan dandelion printed jumpsuit by Etro while at the Toronto Film Festival with her husband, Dax Shepard.
Shepard and Bell are already parents to a daughter, 17-month-old Lincoln, and Bell has an idea of what she will not be wearing this pregnancy.
"I definitely threw out all of my short shorts, I'm 34 and no one needs it. Do you know what I mean? Just no one needs it," she told Us Weekly.

Shakira
Pregnant Shakira and her boyfriend, Gerard Piqué were spotted attending the U.S. versus Slovenia Basketball World Cup game in Barcelona on September 9. The singer and her cute boyfriend, who is a professional footballer, are already parents to a 19-month-old son named Milan. She recently spoke about her pregnancy with Spanish Cosmopolitan — and revealed they are expecting another baby boy.
"The sexy singer admits Milan will have a little brother soon," they announced in their upcoming issue.
It sounds like after this tot is born, Shakira is far from being done with motherhood. "I would love to have eight or nine kids with Gerard. My own futbol team."
