Pregnant Kate Middleton looks slim despite rounder belly, modest weight gain

Kate Middleton looked svelte and stylish in a belted brown wool coat while visiting the National Fishing Heritage Centre in Grimsby, England, on March 5.

Middleton, who's almost six months pregnant, sported a rounder belly and fuller face as she progresses into her pregnancy, but still looked slender and chic. Kate, 31, has come a long way since her first trimester, when she suffered such severe morning sickness that she was hospitalized for three days.

At the time, her husband, Prince William, joked that morning sickness should be renamed "day and all-night sickness" because Kate's extreme nausea wasn't limited just to mornings.

The Duchess of Cambridge now looks healthy and radiant. The athletic 5-foot-10 Middleton is a longtime fitness fanatic who works out at least an hour a day and follows a healthy, portion-controlled diet.

She recently returned from a vacation in sunny Mustique, where a bikini-clad Kate was snapped by paparazzi looking relaxed and happy during a walk on the beach with William. Middleton is due in July 2013.
