The pregnant Kate Middleton has been forced to cancel two more public engagements as she battles acute morning sickness, according to the palace.
Royal family reps confirmed Kate Middleton is pregnant with her second child earlier this week, and that she is suffering early on as she did with George.
Her condition, hyperemesis gravidarum, has not landed her in the hospital for her treatment this time, but she remains too unwell to fulfill her royal duties.
Specifically, that means missing brother-in-law Prince Harry's launch events for the Invictus Games on Wednesday and Thursday, September 9 and 10.
"The Duchess of Cambridge will not attend the Opening Ceremony of the Invictus Games this evening or the Athletics event tomorrow," the Palace said.
Not that there's likely to be any hard feelings from Prince Harry, as younger Prince expressed his sympathy for the pregnant Duchess on Monday.
"In all seriousness, I hope my sister-in-law gets better soon,” he said.
“The last time I saw her, she was okay. Feeling pretty poorly, but I think that’s to be expected. Luckily I’m not a woman so I don’t have to go through that. It’s a pretty horrible thing.”
Harry joked that he's excited for Royal Baby #2 so that he can see his older brother suffer more, but he feels awful for Kate and hopes she recovers soon.
In the meantime, Kate remains under close medical supervision.
"The Duchess is at her home in Kensington Palace and is being seen regularly by doctors who are treating her," a Palace aide said of the 32-year-old.
"She is being looked after by the surgeon gynecologist to the Queen, Alan Farthing, and the surgeon gynecologist to the royal household, Guy Thorpe-Beeston."
Meanwhile, rumors are circulating that Kate and William might use the pregnancy as an excuse to bolt London for good and make Norfolk their home.
