Is there another royal baby on the way? That was the question on a lot of people’s lips when Zara Phillips stepped out at Royal Ascot on Tuesday.
Tongues started wagging when the Queen’s granddaughter was spotted in a figure-hugging Paul Costelloe dress and patting her stomach.
Zara looked radiant in her yellow dress.
However a spokesperson quickly shot down the rumours, insisting that Zara is not pregnant and is focusing on bagging another Olympic medal.
They told the Daily Mail: “Zara is not pregnant – her plans remain the same in terms of her preparation for Rio 2016.”
A spokesperson denied the rumours.
Zara and her husband Mike Tindall, who got married in 2011, already have a one-year-old daughter called Mia Grace.
