DUCHESS Kate and husband Prince William have made their last official public outing before the royal birth next month.

Kate and Wills visited a charity in London, where the soon-to-be mum-of-two revealed the next little prince or princess was due at the end of April.

Onlookers remarked that the Duchess was glowing during the outing, and sported a pair of sky-high stilettos despite being about eight months pregnant.

Can’t miss her ... The down-to-Earth Duchess - who, like the rest of us, knows the joy of getting a Topshop package in the mail - opted for a vibrant pink coat for the royal outing.

“We asked her when it’s due and she said April. End of April,” said Paul Reardon, 50, who chatted to the royal couple when they went on a walkabout in the Gipsy Hill area of south London.

Another onlooker standing nearby, Helen Scholes, 46, told reporters: “William said number one is a life change and number two is a game changer.” Royal officials announced that Kate was pregnant with her second child in September but have remained tight-lipped about the due date for the baby and have not said if it will be a boy or a girl.

On Friday, William and Kate visited a church to hear musical performances by young people who have turned their lives around thanks to the eXceL project charity.

“William said he couldn’t wait for the baby to be born. He said he wanted it now, he couldn’t wait another minute,” Reardon said.

Kate is expected to give birth at the private maternity wing of St Mary’s Hospital in London where she also had Prince George, who will be about 22 months older than his new brother or sister.
