Kate's Pregnant! How the Queen Found Out

They're having a baby! Now what?

With the big news that Prince William and Kate, both 30, are expecting their first child, friends and family greeted the announcement with joy – and caution.

The Duchess of Cambridge remains hospitalized with a severe form of morning sickness.

"There is a real excitement," a royal source tells PEOPLE in this week's cover story, "but obviously people are anxious about the Duchess."

The couple had hoped to keep the news secret until at least Christmas, but Kate's illness prompted them to reveal it early.

Palace sources say William informed the Queen, his father, Prince Charles, and his brother Prince Harry – the British Army captain is currently stationed in Afghanistan – before his wife was hospitalized Monday, with friends only hearing the announcement when it went public.

Not surprisingly, the pair timed the pregnancy so as not to overshadow the Queen's Diamond Jubilee, nor to disrupt a major foreign tour.

"I don't think anything is left to chance," says Majesty editor Ingrid Seward. "Kate is probably one of the most organized [royal] women we've ever known."

Prince William and Kate turn heads at film premiere

LONDON - Britain's Prince William and wife Catherine walked the red carpet Wednesday at the premiere of a film on African wildlife in their first official engagement since his return from the Falklands.

They were guests of honour at the London screening of Disney's African Cats, which tells the story of a pride of lions and a family of cheetahs. The premiere is raising money for British-based conservation charity Tusk Trust.

Catherine, whose official title is Duchess of Cambridge, appeared in a dove-grey dress with jade detailing which online royal watchers quickly identified as a work of Welsh designer Matthew Williamson.

The couple will mark their first wedding anniversary on Sunday and celebrate it "privately", a spokeswoman said.

Their wedding drew global television audiences of two billion.

William was deployed to the Falklands for six weeks in February and March on a tour of duty as a search and rescue pilot, enraging Argentina, which condemned the prince's tour as a "provocation".

Britain has held the Falklands since 1833 but Buenos Aires claims they are occupied Argentinian territory.
