Ladbrokes has slashed the odds for both duchesses to give birth in 2020 to 3/1 and Bookmakers.tv has dropped their odds to 7/2, following the royals being reportedly keen to add to their broods.

Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: "We're anticipating a huge year for the Royals in 2020 with not one but TWO new additions seemingly on their way."

The Duchess of Sussex may have welcomed her first child Archie into the world on May 6, but Prince Harry has been vocal about how the couple would be like another baby.

In the September issue of Vogue, which Meghan guest-edited, Prince Harry said he explained he wanted only two kids in a bid to help save the planet.

His plans for just two kids are in stark contrast to his brother Prince William, who has three kids with wife Kate Middleton.

The Duchess of Cambridge may have her hands full with Prince George, six, Princess Charlotte, four, and one-year-old Prince Louis, but could also add to her royal brood.

Speaking to Fabulous Digital, royal commentator Phil Dampier said: “It is a surprise to me if they had a fourth child.

“Not only does she love family life in Norfolk, to be honest it gives her an excuse to not be at the forefront of royal duties for a little longer, which I really think she enjoys.

"I think Kate's been interacting with the public and doing very well recently, but from what she said she didn't seem to be home with the kids too much."

Phil said he was initially surprised that the duke and duchess opted to have more than two children but speculated it was "very much down to her as she came from a family of three".

Kate is the eldest of Middleton siblings, followed by Pippa, 35, and James, 32.

Now Phil said it was a shock to him if the couple were keen to have another girl, so Princess Charlotte would have a sister.

Phil advised: “A fourth one could mean she has two girls and two boys.

"This would mean a sister to Charlotte but also a child who is a similar age to Louis, so that would be a nice dynamic."

Kate Middleton gave birth to her youngest child, Prince Louis, in April 2018, and quickly became a favorite royal family member.

During her pregnancies, Kate is said to have lost from hyperemesis gravidarum (HG), which is much worse than normal morning sickness experienced during pregnancy.

But Phil said the duchess “suffered with the morning sickness quite as bad with the third as it did with the first two”.

Unlike regular pregnancy sickness, HG may not get better by 14 weeks and for many hospital treatment needs.

Sufferers may be sick numerous times each day and unable to keep food or drink down, which can massively impact their daily lives.

If Cambridges did have another child, he or she would be close in age to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's baby Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, who was born on May 6.
