Kate Middleton sparked pregnancy rumors when she covered her midsection at a gala dinner in London on Nov. 8.

The future king of England and his beautiful bride are having a little prince — or princess.

The royal palace announced Monday that Prince William and wife Kate, the duke and duchess of Cambridge, are having a baby.

“The queen, the duke of Edinburgh, the prince of Wales, the duchess of Cornwall and Prince Harry and members of both families are delighted with the news,” the palace said in a statement.

The royals spilled the beans after lovely Kate was admitted to King Edward VII Hospital in London suffering from Hyperemesis Gravidarum, more commonly known as morning sickness.

She and William wed on April 29, 2011.

Brad Pitt

Celebrities often get a bad rap for flaunting money in the form of exotic cars, multi-acre villas and designer clothing. Thanks to their lavish lifestyles, Hollywood celebs’ bank accounts allow them to carry more than the casual $50 cash in their wallets — in fact, A-lister Brad Pitt was found to be lugging around a hefty $1,100 on his person over Thanksgiving.

But unlike the other celebrities who’d rather spend that cash on an overpriced haircut or a new handbag, Pitt keeps this wad of cash on hand should an opportunity for charitable giving arise. And for the neonatal unit of Southampton General Hospital in England, this is exactly what happened.

Brad Pitt Donates $1,100 to Hospital Fundraiser

Tricia Wilson-Hughes of the Southampton Hospital charity happened to be working at a nearby gift shop where the filming of Brad Pitt’s upcoming film “World War Z” was taking place.

She made rounds to the film’s crew members and managed to raise about £40, which equates to about $64. Then, Wilson-Hughes approached Pitt’s security personnel and asked if Brad Pitt would be willing to make a £50 donation. When the bodyguard returned, she was “completely dumbstruck.”

Pitt’s act of charitable giving amounted to £700 ($1,100) in support of Wilson-Hughes’ cause. “I couldn’t believe it,” said Wilson-Hughes. “He said if he had more he would have given it. I said honestly that is more than enough, but if he wants to do anything in the future that is absolutely fine.”
