The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge celebrated St. Patrick’s Day Tuesday (March 17).

Looking beautiful in a brown coat by Catherine Walker, a matching hat by Lock & Company and suede Emmy London heels, Kate Middleton, 33, was joined by husband, Prince William, 32, for the annual ceremony with the Irish Guards in Aldershot, England.

Accessorizing her polished look with the “Citrine Drop” earrings by Kiki McDonough, the pregnant Duchess handed out sprigs of shamrock to soldiers.

The Prince, wearing his ceremonial uniform of royal Colonel of the Irish Guards, stood with his expectant wife alongside the parade of more than 200 members of the 1st battalion, cadets and veterans.

The Duchess’ coat was accessorized with her own flourish of a gold shamrock brooch, previously owned by the late Queen Mother.

On Friday, the Duke and Duchess were joined by other members of the royal family for a Service of Commemoration for troops who were stationed in Afghanistan.

Last Wednesday, the royal mum-to-be was seen visiting an art studio in Kent, and on Thursday, she toured the set of Downtown Abbey in West London.

The Duke and Duchess – who are already parents to 19-month-old son Prince George – expect their second child within weeks.

…And they called it puppy love!

So, what’s the absolute best medicine for sick days? If you don’t know, you’re about to, because The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, Kyle Richards, took to Instagram yesterday to share an update on her sick daughter, Portia. Portia hasn’t been feeling well, but we think she’ll be okay, seeing as how she’s surrounded by her furry friends. Kyle captioned the absolutely adorable picture:

“The best medicine for a sick day”

Now, we certainly can’t argue with that! Portia looks extremely comfortable and cozy!

When Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey got married back in 2008, after about six weeks of dating, they revealed that they got tattoos for each other, which they showed off in People Magazine. I wrote at the time that the difference between their tattoos was incredible and that Mariah “has a small butterfly at the base of her spine with ‘Mrs. Cannon’ in script as the center line of the butterfly. It’s nearly impossible to see and you can’t tell that the center of the butterfly is actual writing unless you’re right up close.” Nick, on the other hand, had Mariah’s name tattooed across the top of his back in huge writing that you couldn’t miss. (You can see Nick’s original tattoo circled in the People cover below and also on The Daily Mail and TMZ.) So it looked like Nick was in it for life and Mariah was hedging her bets. They lasted six years, which is kind of amazing when you consider their likely dynamic.

Now that Nick and Mariah are going through a divorce and divvying up their massive assets, Nick has covered up the Mariah tattoo with a full back tribute to Jaysus. It features a crucifixion scene in the middle (which he originally got back in October) with a cherub on either side representing his twins. The bottom of Nick’s tattoo reads “Father Forgive Them, For They Know Not What They Do.” TMZ has a photo of the whole tattoo if you’re interested and they reveal that it took 30 freaking hours to get this latest work done. That’s crazy.

Nick’s new tattoo earned him the cover of Urban Ink Magazine, above, which will feature photos of the no-doubt painful process. I only have a couple of tattoos I got when I was very young, and I doubt I would do it again. I’ve considered it, but mine are relatively small and both hurt like a bitch to get. Plus there’s the issue of finding a decent artist to ink something that will be on your body until death, unless you get another tattoo or go through laser treatments.

Anyway, Nick, 34, has had a ton of tattoos done lately including a full sleeve. I’ve heard they can be cathartic and he must be going through a rough time in his divorce. He isn’t letting the grass grow under his feet, though. Nick has been linked to Nicole Murphy, 47, whom he’s been seen out with twice, including on Valentine’s Day. He also was spotted this last weekend at a grocery store in New Jersey, where he now lives, with a hot “mystery woman.” (Page Six has the photo of the two of them together, although it’s hard to tell that it’s Nick.)

Nick recently started renting an $11,000 a month, $3 million estate in Jersey with the option to buy. Mariah sold their mansion in Bel Air earlier this month for $9 million and Nick is suing to determine how the proceeds from the sale will be split between them. He claims he had no say in the sale. Compared to getting divorced, having burning needles pierce your back for hours doesn’t seem so bad.

Not shoe shopping. Grocery shopping.

Check them out on Saturday at Whole Foods loading up on groceries. Cam looks like she changed her hair colour or is that just the light? It seems red to me.

This is what I love about my job. Because if you’d told me two years ago that Cameron Dia…      

Cyclone Pam ripped through Vanuatu on Saturday and thousands of people have been displaced. Evacuation centres have been set up but communications have still not been fully restored. Despite the devastation, there’s been very little (comparative) coverage about the disaster, especially in N…      

A few weeks ago, “sources” announced that Prince Harry would definitely be leaving military service for good this year. It was weird, because many believed (as I did) that Harry would spend much of his life in the military. He already served two tours in Afghanistan and he seemed to be following a path to promotion. But it’s really happening – Harry released a statement yesterday confirming the news. He says he will be done by June. Here’s his statement:

“After a decade of service, moving on from the army has been a really tough decision. I consider myself incredibly lucky to have had the chance to do some very challenging jobs and have met many fantastic people in the process. From learning the hard way to stay onside with my Colour Sergeant at Sandhurst, to the incredible people I served with during two tours in Afghanistan – the experiences I have had over the last 10 years will stay with me for the rest of my life. Inevitably most good things come to an end and I am at a crossroads in my military career. So while I am finishing off one part of my life, I am getting straight into a new chapter. I am really looking forward to it.”

Before he leaves military service, Harry will spend four weeks with the Australian Defense Force in April and May. After June, though, there are some mysteries to how he’ll spend his time. Some are saying that at the age of 30, Harry will be like his brother and take another “gap year” to sort out his future role. Unlike William’s “gap year,” Harry seems to already have some ideas and he won’t be using his gap year as just an excuse to go on vacation. Harry’s already planning on spending this summer in sub-Saharan Africa doing volunteer work with conservation groups. Then he’ll return to London to work for the Ministry of Defense’s Recovery Capability Programme, and likely try to make the Invictus Games an annual event.

Here’s what worries me though… it seems like William’s PR team is going to continue to use Harry’s misadventures (real or perceived) to make William look better by comparison. I hope Harry is able to keep his nose clean. And I hope he works non-stop.

Proud mom Kendra Wilkinson shared a sweet snapshot via Instagram Monday.

“Happy 10 months Alijah. Growing up way too fast. Celebrating at the park today,” the Kendra on Top star, 29, captioned the adorable photo of her beautiful baby girl.

In addition to Alijah, Kendra and her husband, former NFL star Hank Baskett, are also parens to 5-year-old son little Hank.

“Happy Saturday. #family #beachday,” Kendra recently posted a family selfie at the beach.

In a series of recent pics, Kendra shares some shots of a chic black outfit, an at-home massage and rocking the red carpet at Dead Rising: Watchtower.

While at the premiere with her hubby, we couldn’t help but notice her latest accessory — a new wedding ring! The bling comes as big news since Kendra was not wearing a wedding ring for awhile, and she reportedly disposed her previous one by flushing it down the toilet.

Kendra and Hank, who briefly split and then got back together on last season’s of Kendra on Top, will appear on the third season of Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars.

Dear Gossips,

“You know, you look a lot better without all that black sh-t under your eyes.”

Did she?

Then, maybe. But now?

By today’s standards, at least to me, Ally Sheedy totally looked better in The Breakfast Club BEFORE Claire gave her the hairband makeover….      

It’s a case of the baby giggles!

Teen Mom 2 alum, Jenelle Evans, hopped on Instagram to share a few adorable updates of Kaiser Griffith, 9 months, yesterday, and we have to warn you — they’re completely adorable! Jenelle even graced us with a video (click HERE to watch) of Kaiser giggling. She captioned the video:

“#BabyGiggles”

Jenelle then went on to share a picture of Kaiser in his superhero carseat with crumbs all over him:

In another update, Jenelle snapped a picture of Kaiser while he was “zoned out,” getting his cartoon fix:

Azealia Banks covers the April issue of Playboy. The shoot was done by Ellen Von Unwerth, and it’s actually kind of fun to look at if you disregard a terrified looking cat. I thought the cat might be fake, but it poses differently in a few shots. Poor kitty looks spooked. You can see the full NSFW shoot here. I’ve talked about Banks before in a roundabout way, which is usually the best way to refer to her. Usually you can find a ton of insulting slurs all over her Twitter page, but Banks’ management grabbed the reins until April. A wise move.

Banks is beyond epic in her troll-like ways. She regularly expresses anti-Semitic views and contempt for homosexual men (which is odd since she openly identifies as bisexual). Every so often, she speaks a kernal of truth about the hip-hop industry (see her Hot 97 interview). But she always ruins any valid message with hateful rants and button pushing. She even lamented the downfall of “father figure BILL COSBY.” This is the sort of behavior that killed two record contracts.

Here are some Playboy excerpts. This is some scrolldown WTF:

Her type of guy: “I love older men. The things in an older man’s house are better—his furniture, even his knives and his pots. And they smell better. Young guys, they may skip a shower and sh*t like that.”

Her career dreams: “The race thing always comes up, but I want to get there being very black and proud and boisterous about it. You get what I mean? A lot of times when you’re a black woman and you’re proud, that’s why people don’t like you. In American society, the game is to be a nonthreatening black person. That’s why you have Pharrell or Kendrick Lamar saying, ‘How can we expect people to respect us if we don’t respect ourselves?’ He’s playing that nonthreatening black man sh*t, and that gets all the white soccer moms going, ‘We love him.’ Even Kanye West plays a little bit of that game–’Please accept me, white world.’ Jay Z hasn’t played any of those games, and that’s what I like.”

Why people don’t like her: “It’s always about race. Lorde can run her mouth and talk sh*t about all these other bitches, but y’all aren’t saying she’s angry. If I have something to say, I get pushed into the corner. Because y’all motherf***ers still owe me reparations! That’s why it’s still about race. Really, the generational effects of Jim Crow and poverty linger on. As long as I have my money, I’m getting the f*** out of here and I’m gonna leave y’all to your own devices.”

On the U.S.: “I hate everything about this country. Like, I hate fat white Americans. All the people who are crunched into the middle of America, the real fat and meat of America, are these racist conservative white people who live on their farms. Those little teenage girls who work at Kmart and have a racist grandma–that’s really America.”

She’s always been this way: “We had journals in second grade. I went to PS 166, on 88th Street and Columbus Avenue, and we had a teacher I could not stand. The black kids got in trouble all the time. We were loud or whatever, but whenever she told a white kid to quiet down and they did, she’d be like, whatever. But if she told a black kid to quiet down and one of them sucked their teeth, she’d put them in the corner. I wrote in the journal one day, ‘I cannot stand this white bitch teacher. F*** this white bitch.’ She found my journal and called my mother, who was embarrassed, because my mother used to say stuff like that–’White people are of the devil. Stay away from them.’ That teacher was scared of me after that.”

Banks also rants about why athiests suck (something about God and calculators, which makes no sense). She says she doesn’t sleep around but not because because she doesn’t want to. She admits to turning off men by ranting about the injustices of life, and they flee. She’s fine with that because she doesn’t want to catch VD.

Banks wants us to think she’s playing that game where she makes us uncomfortable and shakes up our version of reality, but all she does is pick fights. She doesn’t get why people don’t take her statements seriously when she talks about “the issues.” She wonders why people respect Q-Tip and not her? Well … for starters. Q-Tip expresses himself without drama. He doesn’t toss around slurs. He doesn’t insult people. Whereas Banks doesn’t discuss, she attacks. Troll is a troll.
