British Royal Couple Expecting Second Child

LONDON (AP) - The Duchess of Cambridge, wife of Prince William, is expecting her second child and was being treated for severe morning sickness, royal officials said Monday.

The couple and their families were "delighted" with the news, according to their office, Clarence House.
The duchess was being treated at Kensington Palace for severe morning sickness, Clarence House said. She suffered from morning sickness during her first pregnancy with Prince George, who was born in July 2013.

Prime Minister David Cameron said he was "delighted by the happy news that they're expecting another baby."

The new baby will become fourth in line to the throne, pushing Prince Harry to fifth.
