Kate Middleton and Prince William are rumored to be planning on having more children. Since the Duchess of Cambridge will be turning 38 years old in three months, royal fans are wondering if she will consider hiring a surrogate for her fourth child.

Pregnancies are quite risky for women 35 years and older. And since Middleton suffers from hyperemesis gravidarum or extreme morning sickness, some royal fans think that it might be best for her to hire a surrogateS.

But on the online forum site Quora, more royal fans are convinced that Middleton will never hire a surrogate no matter how many children she and Prince William have. They said that the fact that the Duchess of Cambridge survived her first three pregnancies could only mean that she will survive her fourth pregnancy.

Maureen Steward, a retired individual, couldn’t believe that question that she read on the platform.

“Catherine was pregnant with all three of her children, the proof, if needed, was that she suffered from chronic morning sickness which incapacitated her through all three pregnancies ,another factor she stood on the steps of maternity hospital a few hours after giving birth to each of her children with a mummy tummy which could not have been fabricated,” she said.

David Stewart, a teacher from Australia, said that pregnancy is such a joyous experience even though there is a slew of possible risks. But at the end of the day, nothing compares to carrying one’s child in the tummy.

“From every indication I've had, Kate M is a normal human woman with normal emotions and feelings. Why wouldn't she want to experience pregnancy in all its pain and glory? I suppose it's technically possible that the entire thing was an elaborate fake but I think it's much more plausible that a young couple felt the same biological and emotional urges that billions of others have felt before and produced a human life in the standard way,” the royal fan said.

And Cheryl Collins, an international language and culture consultant, said that the question may be more applicable to Meghan Markle because she’s older and she’s only had one child.
