Kate Middleton's Struggle with Morning Sickness: Prince William Speaks Out
Well, here's an interesting tidbit for you! Prince William recently revealed that Kate Middleton has been trying all sorts of traditional remedies to combat her morning sickness—including munching on ginger cookies. William made this revelation while chatting with 98-year-old Iris Orrell during a recent royal engagement. Iris, who had also endured severe morning sickness during her three pregnancies, empathized with Kate's experience and shared her own struggles with the prince.
During their conversation, the subject of ginger as a potential miracle cure came up. William explained that they had already tried ginger remedies with limited success. "But there’s only so much ginger can do to stop that," the 35-year-old prince remarked. "We’ve tried everything," he added, emphasizing the challenges they've faced in managing Kate's symptoms.
Ginger May Not Be Enough for Kate Middleton
Ginger is widely recognized as a natural remedy for settling an upset stomach, and many pregnant women turn to it to help manage morning sickness. However, for Kate, who suffers from a particularly severe form of morning sickness known as Hyperemesis Gravidarum, ginger simply isn't cutting it. This condition, which affects only about three percent of expectant mothers, is far more intense than regular morning sickness. It involves not only nausea and vomiting but also weight loss and dehydration, making it a serious concern for both mother and baby.

Kate has battled Hyperemesis Gravidarum during both of her previous pregnancies. In fact, when she was expecting Prince George, the condition was so severe that she had to be hospitalized. This time around, it seems she’s once again facing the same challenges, and the royal couple is doing everything they can to ensure her health and well-being.
