Zara tindall pregnant: will kate middleton have her baby first?

Zara Tindall, 36, has announced she is pregnant with her second child with husband Mike Tindall, 39. The Queen's granddaughter and her rugby star husband are already parents to

three-year-old Mia. Mike spoke last year about the devastating miscarriage the couple suffered over Christmas 2016, one month after confirming their pregnancy. A Buckingham Palace spokesman

said the Queen and Royal Family are “very pleased” to hear the couple's news. A spokeswoman for the couple said: "I can confirm Zara is pregnant with her second child."

Although the spokeswoman did not reveal when the Tindall’s baby is due, it means there will be at least two royal babies born this year. Kate Middleton, 36, is set to give birth to her third

child in April. Already parents to Prince George, 4, and Princess Charlotte, 2, with husband Prince William, 36, it is not clear which royal baby will be born first. Zara has previously

spoken to Express.co.uk about married life and motherhood. Reflecting on how she makes it all happen, mum-of-one Zara said: "I don’t know! Mike’s very good, both of us work it out so

that we are in the right place at the right time. "If I’m doing something then he comes too or vice versa and Mia’s around as well or that kind of thing. Also I’ve got less horses now

than I used to so it’s a little bit easier to fit everything in, with charity stuff as well." While little is known yet about Zara's pregnancy, Kate is much further along, and is

often seen out and about after months of confinement thanks to suffering severe morning sickness. Most recently, Kate joined the rest of the royals for Christmas at Sandringham, stepping out

for the morning church service. The Duchess of Cambridge wore a Miu Miu red and green check coat, £2655, for the service, which she matched with a black hat. The coat came just above her

knee, and was loose enough not to show any of her baby bump. Trimmed with gold buttons, the coat also featured a black collar.
