Why Kate Middleton Might Not Be a Bridesmaid At Pippa’s Upcoming Wedding

Pippa Middleton is in wedding planning mode! Mark your calendars because a friend of the bride-to-be has told People magazine that the big day is scheduled for May 2017. Her financier fiancé James Matthews proposed back in July with a three-carat diamond sparkler surrounded by 12 smaller stones that’s thought to be from Robinson Pelham, a boutique jewelry favored by the Middleton family, while on holiday in the Lake District of England—so the nuptials will take place a little less than a year after he popped the question. The ceremony will be held at her village church of St. Mark’s in Englefield, Berkshire, and afterwards, 150 guests will make their way to her parents’ back garden for the reception.

Not that we need a reminder, but Pippa famously stole the show at the royal wedding when she strutted down the runway (ahem, aisle) at Westminster Abbey in an Alexander McQueen by Sarah Burton bridesmaid dress that hugged her in all the right places just before her sister, Kate Middleton, made her grand entrance. Now, nearly six years later, it seems the Duchess of Cambridge will not be returning the favor. Royal experts speculate that Kate has already decided to take a backseat at her sister’s spring nuptials out of fear of stealing all of the attention—because how can anyone be expected to concentrate on the bride when the future Queen of England is standing by her side at the altar? Luckily, we won’t be completely denied royal family representation during the service. Prince George and Princess Charlotte are expected to serve as a pageboy and a flower girl, respectively. Who else can’t wait for the wedding pictures?
