Kate Middleton is seemingly searching for the perfect pink paint as speculation about the sex of the second royal baby goes into overdrive.
The world is eagerly awaiting the pitter patter of royal tiny feet later this month, and the expectant Duchess is already said to have been spotted shopping for pink baby clothes.
Now the arrival of some traditionally feminine paint samples at the Royal couple's home has lent further weight to rumours that a little girl is on the way.
Super high-end Oxford interior design company Annie Sloan has reportedly supplied three paint samples in shades of girly pink to Anmer Hall, the luxurious 10-bedroom house on the Queen's Sandringham which is currently home to William and Kate.
According to the Daily Mail, the colours are understood to be:
- Henrietta, a "beautiful rich complex pink with a hint of lilac"
- Antoinette, a "soft pale pink with a hint of brown" that is redolent of "old-fashioned roses and the colour of old plaster"
- Emile, a "warm soft aubergine colour with pink and red undertones".
The posh paint comes with a price tag befitting any royal nursery.
One litre will set you back £18.95 - more than other upmarket brands such as Farrow & Ball, which already produces a shade called "Middleton Pink".
Bookies Ladbrokes said yesterday it is expecting the Royal baby to be a girl at odds-on favourite at 4-5.
A little brother for 18-month-old Prince George is less likely at odds of 11-10.
Kensington Palace has declined to comment on the issue.
A spokesman for Annie Sloan says the company could not ‘confirm or deny’ that it had supplied paints to Anmer Hall.
