The hottest couple on the planet may be expecting their first Royal baby.

The Internet is on fire with chatter that Kate Middleton is pregnant after In Touch magazine, quoting a "royal source," reported that the Duchess of Cambridge is six weeks into her pregnancy.

In Touch claims Kate is readying three nurseries: "One in Nottingham Cottage, where Kate and William have been staying, another in their home in Wales, and yet another at Kensington Palace, which is undergoing a major refurbishment."

The couple has also picked names, the In Touch source says.

"They want something traditional. Edward, Philip and Michael are likely choices for a boy, or Alice or Rose for a girl."

Pregnancy rumours began as Royal watchers studied William's body language around his new wife, and how the Duchess avoided peanuts, even though she has no allergies.
