Kate Middleton and Prince William excited to start family

OHMYGOSSIP — Kate Middleton and Prince William are “excited” to start a family. The pair are said to be working hard to have their first child, and apparently can’t wait to become parents.

“They’re excited at the prospect of becoming parents,” a source told Us Weekly.

“They’re working on it. In a dream situation, they’d love to be a step closer at Christmas. They have been on such a high since getting married. It’s time for the next step — Kate is hoping she and William can become parents in 2013.”

The couple will wait until just after the first trimester to share the news wide.

“It won’t be hidden,” says the source.

“Kate will let her children have fun and freedom, but she will also make sure they do what is best for them.”

It’s also been claimed Kate has been having secret fertility treatments.
