Harry ‘lets slip’ William and Kate are having a boy

Prince Harry lets slip William and Kate are having a boy

Harry, William and Kate at the Harry Potter studios last month.

Prince Harry is always getting himself into trouble and it appears he’s done it again, letting slip the sex of his brother’s unborn baby.

While William and Kate have refused to reveal anything other than the baby’s due date, Harry has been unable to keep quiet, telling all his friends that the couple is expecting a baby boy.

“Harry has been telling everyone Wills and Kate are having a boy and how thrilled he is at the prospect of having a little nephew,” a source told the UK’s Sunday People.

“He said the whole family was excited about it. Apparently Kate has always wanted a boy.

“The close inner circle all know that it’s a boy and they’re busily buying gifts with a boy theme. There will be an awful lot if blue in their house.”

Another royal insider told the publication that Princess Eugenie has also been telling friends the baby is a boy.

While William and Kate have refused to officially divulge the sex of their baby there are a few hints the source’s sex gossip could be true.

Kate confirmed last week that she had purchased a “light blue” Bugaboo pram for the baby, and much was made of her first official maternity dress — a baby blue custom made Emilia Wickstead number.

Until now, many have believed the Duchess was expecting a girl after she accepted a teddy bear from a well-wisher saying: “Thanks, I will take that for my d…”

When asked if she was about to say “daughter”, Kate denied knowing the sex of the baby.

A little princess is still the bookmakers’ favourite, with the odds on a girl at 1/3 and odds of a boy 5/2.
