Chi, the Italian gossip magazine that incurred the wrath of the royal family last September when it printed topless photos of a sunbathing Kate Middleton, is at it again — this time publishing the first photos to show the Duchess' growing baby bump.

The Dr. Frankenstein who wrought Kate Middleton's infamously terrible official portait upon the world has finally been negged into submission: driven mad by the endless bad press, he has created a second, lovely portrait in black and white.

Exciting news today for the people who have been saying for weeks that Kate Middleton is having twins: YOU'RE ALL WRONG. How's it feel to be wrong? How does it taste? Metallic, like blood, or bitter, like rue?

Hmm, well, okay.

Sounds like Cathy Middleton and her husband Bill had a real nice time for her birthday the other night. They and Cathy's parents and her brother and sister all went and saw that circus—what's that circus? It's like a French circus. Circus du Soleil. Canadian, I guess, you know the one I mean.

What happens behind the scenes at Gawker? We know you ask yourselves this question every single hour of every single day, and we don't blame you. We are fascinating. Sometimes we order sandwiches for lunch, and sometimes we order burritos. Sometimes we listen to music while we blog, and sometimes we do not. Sometimes Max Read picks his nose, but not always. With all this in mind, we're sharing with you our official "behind the blog post" backstories for all of the posts you clicked the shit out of this year. First up: Kate Middleton's Boobs.

Come Christmas morning Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, will awake - not in his royal bed of roses, a traditional Christmas morning figgy pudding waiting on a silver serving tray by the bed - but upon the dirt floor in the straw hut his commoner in-laws call home. That's right, Bucklebury, the royals are coming to town.

Over the weekend, the Australian DJs whose prank call to Kate Middleton's hospital is being blamed for the suicide of the Duchess' nurse sat down to give their first public statements since news of the death broke.

The two DJs behind the Kate Middleton hospital prank, now being blamed as a contributing factor to her nurse's suicide, have either deleted their verified Twitter accounts, or had them removed.

The King Edward VII Hospital receptionist who patched two Australian radio DJs through to Kate Middleton's private nurse was found dead today of an apparent suicide.

Kate Middleton left the hospital this morning after giving birth to a beautiful bouquet of yellow roses. According to an official statement, she will now travel to Kensington Palace "for a period of rest."

Yesterday, all by ourselves, without no inspiration whatsoever, we brought you the 19 Most Powerful Images of 2012. But we have to ask: was 2012 about "inspiring," "powerful" images? Or was it about celebrity nude photos naked nude sex tape topless? Looking back across the year, we can say, definitely, 2012's biggest story was nude topless celebrities download here for sex tapes.

While the entire world patiently awaited official word on the status of Kate Middleton and her royal fetus, two Australian radio DJs were busy getting first-hand intel straight from the nurse's mouth.

You may have heard yesterday that famous uterus Kate Middleton confirmed she is pregnant, proving once again that women can become pregnant.

Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge and future Queen of England, is pregnant, thanks (we presume) to her husband, Prince "Duke of Cambridge" William. This child will likely one day rule England, and therefore you are probably asking yourself: When and where did the royal couple have royal procreative sex? Some people might say this is a question for nosy perverts; luckily, you are at a website geared toward nosy perverts.

Buckingham Palace has confirmed our friends Bill and Kathy are having their first child, according to the AP. Here's the statement:

We've seen the royal duchess Kate Middleton's naked top and we've seen her bare bottom too.

There's not a ton to say about this picture, really. It's Kate Middleton wearing a diaper and a bib while covered in what looks like shaving cream. It's reportedly from a 2001 event at St. Andrew's University, which makes sense; who doesn't have embarrassing photos from college floating around the internet? And, of course, this photo is a lot less scandalous than those other Kate Middleton photos on the internet, although, as The Cut points out, there is a set of droopy balls to Kate's right. Scandal! NSFW!

It feels good to see Pippa Middleton finally acknowledge the rock solid foundation on which her fame empire has truly been built: her ass, baby, we're talking about her ass.

Kate Middleton's boobs are many things to many people. To Prince William, they are rounded mounds of subcutaneous adipose tissue, which must be sunblocked on private vacations, so that they do not burn. To Kate Middleton's future children, they are a portable wetbar. To an anonymous Irish paparazzo, they are a new summer home.
