\"It's lovely to be here,\" she told the crowd, according to People.

The Duchess spent time visiting with women recovering from addiction, some of whom asked her about her upcoming pregnancy.

\"I asked her if she was nervous about having a child, and she said it would unnatural if she wasn't. It's just human, isn't it?\" Lisa, mother of three told The Observer (via People).

Another woman, Natalie - who is also expecting - reportedly spoke with Kate about the complications she's had with her pregnancy.

\"She was saying she had been feeling unwell but was feeling better now,\" the expecting mom said.
