Kate Middleton - Housewares Shopping in London

Kate Middleton opted for a spot of retail therapy in London, England on Tuesday.

The Duchess of Cambridge braved the rainy conditions as she showed up at Crucial Trading to pick out some housewares for her Kensington home that she shares with husband Prince William.

And of course, Kate carried her own bags to show that even though she’s pregnant she’s plenty able to care for her own affairs.

As for the baby’s due date, an insider told press, "Some of William's closest pals were at a barbecue hosted by a family friend of the Royals recently. They were all discussing the fact that Kate's baby is due to be born on July 13."
