Just a reminder for this thread that prediction of death, ill-health or misadventure is tasteless and we can do without it.

Thanks for everyone's cooperation,

Kate and Will gets a boy in late July
Madeleine and Chris get married in early June and in December Madeleine announces her pregnancy
Victoria and Daniel announce in late September that they are expecting another child.

[nascarlucy]

Every year there are births, engagements and marriages. Among the births, you probably will have surprise pregnancies.

Kate will have a surprise pregnancy by the end of the year. The surprise will be twins who will be born Late Spring 2014.

Kate will have a baby mid-year 2013 (a girl perhaps).

HGD Guillaume and his wife HGD Stephanie will announce a pregnancy mostly likely in the next 6 months or so.

This year Madeleine and Chris will marry before July and with a couple of months of their marriage, they will announce that they are expecting their first child.

Prince William will take on more responsibilities during the year and the Queen will give him and Prince Charles more responsibilities.

After the birth of their child, Prince William and Kate will get a pet for the child. Most likely it will be a dog. Picturing a lab in my mind.

Princess Victoria and Daniel will have another child before the year is up. The child will be a boy.

Thanks, though there is a slight probability of eventual pregnancy announcement for Letizia , nobody stops us from dreaming or just predicting.

[An Ard Ri]

I guess the big royal news in 2013 will be William and Kate's baby!

[princess gertrude]

The Duke of Cambridge will give up the RAF and join the Household Calvary and take up more royal engagements

Norway
Nothing

Crown Princess Victoria announces 2nd pregnancy

Spain
Infanta Christina separates from Inaki
King Juan Carlos greatly reduces his engagements in favor of Prince Felipe & Princess Letizia

Belgium
Nothing

Monaco

Giving that Prince Felix is already engaged, I put Prince Arne of Saxony on his place.

[An Ard Ri]

Perhaps we might have baby news from Luxembourg,Monaco and maybe Spain (Letizia and Felipe) .

[someonelikeyou]

A daughter for William and Catherine. She will arrive on 1 July 2013 - what would have been her paternal grandmother's 52nd birthday. She will be named Victoria Emma Frances Caroline.

Madeleine is likely to get married this summer
Victoria will announce another pregnancy at the end of the year. (for a boy)
William will be a father of a girl named Victoria.
Stephanie of Luxembourg will announce pregnancy this summer
Felix and his fiancee will get married on summer
Andrea Casiraghi will have a boy but he won't get married and also imo Albert won't have a child with Charlene this year.
