Ahead of her maternity leave in March, the Duchess shared her vision for her first born. "I had seen this documentary on Netflix about feminism, and one of the things they said during pregnancy was ‘I feel the embryonic kicking of feminism.’ I loved that, so boy or girl, whatever it is, we hope that that’s the case with our little bump,” she said during her International Women's Day panel.
