There's not long to go until the Duke and Duchess of Sussex meet their firstborn. Over the past few months, fans have loved seeing Meghan's baby bump grow – and watch as the mum-to-be shows off her maternal side, cradling her bump on public outings. While the touching of her bump may be a signature Meghan move, looking back at photos, it's clear that her sister-in-law Kate did the same when she was pregnant with Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
Following on from Kate recently admitting that was feeling broody, and as we look forward to welcoming a new royal baby this spring, we round up all the times Kate has lovingly cradled her bump…
The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are the proud parents to George, Charlotte and Louis, and throughout all three of Kate's pregnancies, the royal looked every inch the doting mum. She couldn't help show her surprise as she felt little Louis kick this time last year in 2018 as she visited Sunderland on an official day trip.
