Prince William and Kate Middleton are expecting their second baby in April next year, raising the possibility the new royal birth will coincide with their wedding anniversary, or the Queen's birthday.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge announced the expected date as Kate prepares for her first official engagements since she announced she was pregnant with her second child.

"Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge are delighted to confirm they are expecting a baby in April 2015," Kensington Palace said in a statement.

"The Duchess of Cambridge continues to be affected by hyperemisis gravidarum, but her condition is steadily improving," it said.

Their announcement was made after the 32-year-old Duchess passed the 12-week mark in her pregnancy, suggesting a due date in late April.

The date could coincide with the Queen's 89th birthday, on April 21, or the Duke and Duchess's wedding anniversary on April 29.
