Kate Middleton pregnancy update: Duchess celebrates 33rd Birthday with Prince William and Prince George

There is a pre-conceived notion that princes and princesses have all the time in the world to just enjoy their luxurious lives. The fact is, the Royal Family has duties, too, and often, it takes up their time as well. With Kate, she has to balance her royal duties, her responsibilities as the wife to Prince William, her second pregnancy, and, of course, little Prince George. 

The Duchess of Cambridge will give birth in April, which means that there's only three full months to spend with Prince George before her attention and time is divided yet again. As a result, she is trying to spend as much time as she can with her 17-month-old son.  According to Kate's maternity nurse, the duchess knows this dilemma and is mindful of that. 

"She will be mindful that this will be one of the last opportunities for sole 'George time.' I'm certain Kate will largely be based at Anmer (Hall) to bring up the children," Sarah Dixon told People Magazine.

On her 33rd birthday, the duchess reportedly spent the day with the two most important men in her life, Prince William and little George. 

As the Royal Family enjoyed the special day, PETA made it even more special with their presents. According to Hollywood Take, PETA's gift to the duchess was a "faux-wool moto-style coat from Vaute Couture." The reason for the choice of gifts? PETA wanted to give Kate something fashionable, yet "animal-friendly." 

PETA U.K. Founder Ingrid Newkirk explained, "Fashion is about more than looking good – it's also a statement about who you are and what you stand for." 

She added, "By wearing her new vegan coat, the duchess will be setting a great example and sending British women the message that they can have top-notch style without hurting animals." 

Catherine is known to wear the trendiest coats and this present should be a perfect addition to her collection. By the way, the coat retails at $360 and it is made from WonderFelt.
