Does passing on peanuts mean that Duchess Kate is pregnant?
Not necessarily. Since the 29-year-old royal declined to sample peanut paste during her and Prince William's Nov. 2 visit to a Denmark UNICEF distribution center, rumors have been rampant that the couple is expecting a child. (Although Kate is not allergic to peanuts, pregnant women are often advised to avoid peanut products to prevent allergies in their babies-to-be.) But a royal insider tells the new Us Weekly -- on stands now -- why this might not be the case.

"She's not comfortable eating in front of cameras," the insider said. "What if she didn't like it and made a face? That expression would then be on every newspaper."

A spokesman for the couple tells Us the policy is "to never confirm or deny [pregnancy] rumors," but an insider insists: "If and when there is an announcement to make, it will be made by the palace as soon as it's safe to."

Should Will and Kate have a daughter as their firstborn, a new ruling will allow her to someday be queen. Upending centuries of royal law, leaders of the 16 countries that recognize the British monarchy recently agreed that a firstborn daughter should be able to ascend the throne even if she has younger brothers.

Tell Us What You Think
17i live in the U.K. and only now i am hearing about this, I think people should not start silly rumours over something small like peanutbutter, The couple would've announced the pregnancy immediatly after finding out, it would be too big an issue to hide it from the public, they wouldn't wait and surprise us like celebrities do, it would be too important to hide.
Or maybe she does not like Peanuts. I don't like certain types of nuts not that I'm allergic to them because I am not. I just don't like walnuts and almonds

Maybe she wasn't in the mood for peanuts or had a big breakfast/lunch or didn't want to have peanut butter stuck in her teeth. It must be so difficult for this poor girl to have everything she does analysed.
I hope she is, then we would get to see the next person in line for the crown, boy or girl...how great is that.
The woman probably eats nothing so of course she wouldn't want to eat in front of people and have them see her eating food portions fit for an infant.
i hope she is!!
Kathy they did if you read any news outlet they repealed that recently.
This reminds me of when rumors were swirling that Khloe Kardashian was pregnant like a year ago. She was reading the rumors in the tabloids so much, that they convinced the bimbo that she was pregnant, and said that "maybe I should take a pregnancy test"? Who does something SOOOOOO stupid! Leave the Duchess alone for crying out loud! This is ridiculous!
I think it's about time they come out of the Dark Ages and did away with that "firstborn" law about only a male inheriting the title of King. Females do things WAY better anyway, not that it matters because it is only for "show" but it's the principal of the matter.
If US reruns this article enough times they'll eventually be right.
FYI most likely doesn't like it and I agree with the source she doesn't want to be photographed eating, heck I wouldn't want to me what if I got spinach in my teeth.
I sincerely hope she is not anorexic, I really admire her.
Wow, now she has to tell the world her reasons for not wanting to eat something? Good grief. While I realize the press has been kid-gloved with her for the most part, I am sure there are days where she would love to just say "I didn't want to try that crap! Buzz off".
I think she's not necessarily pregnant .. maybe she had diarrhea.. Peanuts or anything with peanut is not recommended when your stomach is kind of "happy" or "too happy"... :D :D :D :D :D... Hahahahaha.. Lol.
ugh, maybe she just doesn't like peanut sauce?...
im tired o hearing about this. lol If she is preo good for her if not thats ok too. man give them a break
