Strange things about Pippa Middleton's marriage. Kate Middleton's little sister Pippa first became the mother of Kate and Pippa

Pippa Middleton celebrates her birthday today - the sister of the Duchess of Cambridge turned 35 years old. At this point in her life and with James Matthews, she is expecting her first child by October. ELLE has collected the main facts about sister Kate Middleton, who attracts public attention with her elegance, love of sports and an active lifestyle.

1. Real name

In fact, Pippa is from the full: Charlotte Philippa Middleton.

2. Origin

One of the surprising facts is that the Middleton family never belonged to: Michael Francis Middleton (father) came from the middle class, and Carol Elizabeth Goldsmith (mother) came from an old family of Harrison coal miners from County Durham. We add that both spouses worked in civil aviation, Carol Elizabeth was a flight attendant, and Michael Francis was an air traffic controller. But the fateful moment came in 1987. Then the Middletons founded the mail order company Party Pieces, which successfully developed in the British market and made them millionaires. The family settled in their own house in the village of Bucklebury in Berkshire.

3. Nickname

During her time at Marlborough College, students and friends called Kate's sister "Perfect Pippa". The reason for this is the girls and a huge layer of interests from poetry to dancing.

4. The main difference from Kate

According to sources close to the royal family, Pippa has always been more active than Kate, especially in sports hobbies. After entering college, she channeled her boundless energy into activism by signing up for a field hockey team - just like her sister did, by the way. As a result, Kate remained an “ordinary” player, but Pippa quickly became a leader and became the team captain. In addition, from a young age she played tennis, then cycling appeared among her hobbies, and even later, her younger sister Kate Middleton became seriously interested in boxing and even mountaineering. By the way, according to the recollections of eyewitnesses, it was Pippa, and not Kate, who was the leader in her student years and gave the impression of "a person who will be at the top of fame."

5. Favorite holiday and season

In her recipe book, Pippa wrote several times that her favorite holiday is, and the season is autumn.

“Getting together at a table decorated with candles on the lawn in winter, or lying in a pile of fallen leaves with a hot drink in hands in autumn ...”

6. Music

Pippa's favorite performer is the British singer Adele. Rumor has it that the famous sister of the future Queen of England does not miss a single concert of the singer.

7. Signature dish

Before entering the University of Edinburgh, Middleton worked for several months as an assistant in the kitchen of a Berkshire pub. There she learned the recipes for the dishes that became her signature dishes - salad with pigeon meat and venison stew. But Pippa often calls sushi her favorite dish and often clarifies in an interview that she cooks them exclusively herself.

8. Style

In her everyday summer looks, Pippa most often prefers the French style: the wardrobe is dominated by dresses with floral prints and dropped shoulders, which the girl complements with wedge shoes. And in the autumn and winter exits, Pippa remains true to the English classics: quilted jackets, plaid jackets, scarlet coats and boots in caramel shades.

9. Relationship with the son of the owner of Hogwarts

It is worth saying that, unlike Kate, Pippa has never been constant in a relationship and had several high-profile novels before her marriage to James Matthews. Pippa's longest relationship was with Count George Percy, whose family owns Olnwick Castle, who "played" the role of Hogwarts in the Harry Potter film. Pippa had known George since studying at the University of Edinburgh, but the romance between them began only in 2008 and lasted until 2012.

10. Work and career

After graduating from the University of Edinburgh, Pippa got a job at a luxury PR agency and also did an internship at an event management company, Table Talk. This was followed by a job at my parents' company, Party Pieces, which sells holiday merchandise. To promote the enterprise, the girl published her own online magazine, Party Times. Soon, the younger Middleton went further and consolidated all of her publishing activities under the auspices of PXM Enterprises Limited (currently closed). In 2012, Pippa Middleton released two books: a collection of recipes for parties "Heartfelt" and the book "Celebrate: A Year of Festivities for Families and Friends" - 400 pages about how to arrange a holiday for family and friends.

Pippa Middleton became world famous when her older sister Kate Middleton married Prince William.

Pippa, who graduated from the University of Edinburgh and worked in planning and public relations, tied the knot with billionaire James Matthews last summer. Pippa's fiancé and now her husband seems to be successful in everything he touches, whether it's professional racing car driving or managing a hedge fund. And as a bonus to his impressive resume, he will also inherit the Scottish title of Laird of Glen Afric, which will make Pippa Lady of Glen Afric.

Pippa and James are anything but mundane. They are the aunt and uncle of the future king, they live in a luxurious London mansion that has an elevator and an underground cinema, and their wedding was, in the truest sense of the word, a million dollars.

Let's find out what makes this unique couple different from others.

James waited ten years for her

They reportedly met in 2007 in St. Barts, a French Caribbean island, and friends said it was love at first sight - at least for James.

However, the couple faced difficulties from the start. James is eight years older than Pippa and at the time the age gap was more obvious as she was 22 and he was in his thirties. One more problem? She had a boyfriend at the time.

James and Pippa continued to communicate via email until 2012, when they both found themselves single, and started dating. This went on for several months. Pippa then began a two-year relationship with stockbroker Nico Jackson. But apparently, she and James were supposed to be together, because at the end of 2015 they each ended their previous relationship and they got back together. A friend of James said, "In truth, the only girl he really wanted was Pippa."

Less than a year after they reunited, James proposed to her with a diamond ring worth over $300,000 and they tied the knot in May 2017.

Pippa's mother reportedly 'inspired' their engagement


It's not often these days that a mother is the "mastermind" behind her child's engagement.

According to The Telegraph, Pippa's mother, Carol Middleton, told Matthews years before the engagement that she really hoped their relationship would get serious. The source said: “This is what she has been hoping for for some time. She seems to be something of a mastermind behind this engagement."

James reportedly met with Carol before asking for her daughter's hand in marriage. The Telegraph reported that after the proposal, Carol was "delighted."

And although some suggested that the wedding could take place at the James family estate in Scotland, Carol insisted that they get married at the Middleton family estate.

Their wedding cost over $1 million.

Weddings in England are not cheap (according to a 2017 survey, the average price was £27,161, or $36,803) James and Pippa spent over $1 million.

$92,000 for champagne and wine, $20,000 for flowers, $26,000 for vintage car rentals, and a flotilla of Range Rovers to transport the wedding and guests. Pippa's dress was valued at a whopping $52,000.

They gave a reception in a glass "palace" from Belgium and reportedly spent $6,500 on a vintage British aircraft that performed aerobatics over the reception.

Well, when an engagement ring costs over $300,000, it makes sense that the wedding would be three times as expensive...maybe?

They went to the "glass palace" for their wedding reception


Apparently, when you marry a billionaire, your sister is a duchess, and your nephew is the future king, even the best restaurant is unlikely to suit you.

According to the Daily Mail, Pippa and James decided to celebrate in a glass "palace" from another country. The "Palace" was delivered in parts from Belgium and was built within a few days at the Middleton estate. The cost of rent and construction was reportedly a whopping $130,000.

However, everything was not quite perfect. Do you know what's wrong with the glass palace? Lack of toilets. The guests reportedly used the portable bathrooms, which were placed in a tent near the glass building.

The future king was the page at their wedding

Not many can boast that the future king of England served at their wedding! Pippa's nephew Prince George, who is third in line to the throne, and his sister, Princess Charlotte, worked as servants at the wedding. George carried a basket of flowers down the aisle while Charlotte was a bridesmaid.

But children are children, and according to the Daily Mail, George and Charlotte were allegedly scolded by their mother for misbehaving after the ceremony. They reportedly stepped on the train of Aunt Pippa's dress near the church. George was even photographed crying after the incident.

In addition to the royal babies, both Princes William and Harry attended the wedding.

Their house has a gym, an underground cinema and an elevator.

Real estate in London is not cheap, but not for Pippa and James! According to the Daily Mail, the couple lives in a five-story, $22 million mansion located on an exclusive street in London.

Their home with amenities most people can only dream of - a gym, an underground cinema, an elevator, and a whopping six bedrooms. And if that wasn't enough, the couple started renovating the house in 2017 to add even more space!

Will they ever be 'Laird and Lady'

Pippa Middleton's sister, Kate became a duchess after her marriage to Prince William, but she's not the only one in the family to hold the title. James' father, billionaire David Matthews, holds the Scottish title of Laird of Glen Afrique, and James will inherit that title. Pippa will become Lady Glen Afric.

The Matthews family title was purchased and paid for when David purchased the 10,000 acre estate of Glen Afrik in 2008.

David owns a Victorian mansion that he rents out seasonally and according to some reports, many celebrities have stayed there, including football player David Beckham. Luxurious rooms, located just 15 miles from Loch Ness in the Scottish Highlands, are very expensive. It is reported that a three-day stay for eight people will cost about $13,000.

His father was arrested for alleged rape

Nearly a year after their fairy tale wedding, Pippa and James are facing a major marital crisis. According to the Telegraph, James' father, David, was taken into custody in France in March 2018 and was due to be questioned about the alleged rape of a minor in the 1990s. He was reportedly detained after arriving at Orly airport near Paris, but was later released. These events were alleged to have taken place between 1998 and 1999 and were brought to the attention of the authorities in 2017.

David's spokesman told the Telegraph that he denied all the allegations and called them "scandalous" and "untrue."

Neither Pippa nor James have given an official comment on the case.

They do extreme sports together

Even before they officially became a couple, Pippa and James participated in sporting events together.

The couple, along with Pippa's brother, James Middleton, took part in a series of extreme activities to raise money for the Michael Matthews Foundation, which was set up to honor younger brother James. Michael died at the age of 22 in 1999 while hiking Everest.

In 2014, Pippa and James raced their bikes from Southern California to Maryland. In September 2015, shortly before they officially announced their engagement, the couple competed in a 47-mile swim race in Sweden. Pippa reportedly said of the debilitating event, “It was one of the hardest things I've ever done! The hardest part is the long swim with cold water and big waves.”

After the wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton, her younger sister became one of the most talked about people in Foggy Albion. HELLO.RU wishes Pippa a happy birthday and recalls 15 interesting facts from her life.

Pippa Middleton 1.Philippa Middleton was born to Michael and Carol Middleton on September 6, 1983. Pippa's parents, her weather sister Catherine and younger brother James worked in civil aviation: her mother was a flight attendant, and her father was an air traffic controller. When the girls went to school, the Middletons founded the mail order company Party Pieces, which successfully developed in the British market and made its founders millionaires.

In Celebrating: A Year of Holidays for Family and Friends, which Pippa published a few years ago, she recalled her childhood and teenage years with warm words:

Gathering around a table decorated with candles in the winter on the lawn in summer, or lying in a pile of fallen leaves with a hot drink in your hands in autumn...

Pippa and Kate Middleton with their father Michael as children Pippa's acquaintances from school clearly recall another fact from her youth. According to them, the younger Middleton always went to school tanned, because "they always went somewhere to relax with the family." The fact is that her parents, who once worked in the field of air transportation, even after the end of their careers, always had free reserve seats at British Airways.

2. After graduating from high school, Philippa went to Marlborough College in Wiltshire with her sister Katherine. According to eyewitnesses, it was Pippa, and not Kate, who was the leader and gave the impression of "a person who will be at the top of fame."

Pippa and Kate Middleton, 2007

The Middleton sisters successfully joined the school field hockey team. But if Kate was just a player, then Pippa quickly became the captain. College students remember the sisters as "Alpha Pippa" - loud and punchy, and "Beta Kate" - kind and homely.

Pippa had a tough character and incredible charisma. No one would even think of mocking her, ”said one of the college students.

3. But if peers did not dare to mock Philippa Middleton, then they could not resist inventing nicknames for her. In addition to "Pippa" and "Pip", formed from her full name, she received the name Panface ("Pancake" - ed.). Such a not very pleasant nickname was given to her because of her, as it seemed to the offenders, too "flat" face.

4. At school, Pippa Middleton was famous for her flirtatiousness. Rumor has it that during sports competitions, which she loved very much, Pippa always asked her friends if the boys were looking at her.

Kate was very modest, and Pippa definitely liked to flirt with everyone and be the center of attention. She herself, according to rumors, in her youth was seriously passionate about her field hockey coach. Young and handsome, former Oxford graduate Richard Markham taught the girls how to hold the stick, and at the same time was the main character of women's discussions in the locker room. Now the hero of Pippa's teenage dreams is the director of one of the schools in Hertfordshire.

5. After school, Pippa followed her sister to Scotland, enrolling at the University of Edinburgh. Here the girl became interested in studying English literature and began to make her first secular acquaintances. The younger Middleton's friends at that time were Earl Percy, the heir to the Duke of Northumberland, as well as the son of the Duke of Roxburgh and the famous Lord Edward Inns-Ker.

Pippa has no bad habits to this day: she does not smoke or drink alcohol. She develops a terrible allergic reaction to any alcohol-containing drinks - a bright red rash that can be seen even through her bronze tan.

7. But the parties, which she had a chance to taste after moving to Scotland, immediately fell in love with Middleton's younger sister. Later, she even wrote a book on organizing large-scale holidays - "Celebrating: a year of holidays for family and friends." However, the book did not have much success. Critics called Pippa's work too "clumsy" and her advice "primitive".

8. In one of the columns written for the Telegraph, Pippa admitted that she is a real gourmet. She loves to cook for her friends and experiment with new recipes. Before entering the University of Edinburgh, Middleton worked for several months as an assistant in the kitchen of a Berkshire pub. There she learned the recipes for the dishes that became her signature dishes - salad with pigeon meat and venison stew.

My friends at university were my "guinea pigs". I knew that I could try everything on them, and they would not mind if something turned out not so tasty. However, Pippa took her very first steps in cooking as a child:

I learned the skills of a hostess from my mother. We were always involved in the cooking process, set the table together, helped mom make sauces. And we had to eat absolutely everything. Perhaps that is why I am now such a gourmet, whom nothing can scare: neither kidneys and liver, nor oysters and mussels - I love all this.

However, Pippa's favorite food, according to her, is Japanese:

The first time I made sushi was at the University of Edinburgh. I promised my flatmates that we would cook them and then watch rugby on TV together. The most difficult thing is to make rice so that it has the right stickiness. 9. Pippa Middleton's favorite holiday is Christmas. She just loves a festive family breakfast, going to church for a service and, of course, presenting gifts. Another important and beloved Pippa component of the holiday is the family gathering of the puzzle.

My brother always takes the last piece of the puzzle to complete the picture. And it's really annoying, - Pippa says, not without irony.

10. The wedding of Kate and Prince William, which took place on April 29, 2011, made Pippa famous at one point.

In fact, I did not realize the magnitude and scope of this day until the very end. According to the girl, only after seeing the cameras and thousands of people who wanted to witness the kiss of William and Kate on the balcony of Buckingham Palace, she thought: "Yes, this is really a special event." By the way, the attention of the press was riveted not only by the bride and groom, but also by the dress and appetizing figure of the bridesmaid - Pippa Middleton.

Pippa Middleton at the wedding of Duchess Catherine and Prince William In a recent interview with NBC, Pippa recalled that very outfit, by Sarah Burton:

You know, when choosing a dress, I did not set out to find an outfit that would glorify me. It was just a white dress that matched the others at the wedding. This outfit still hangs in my closet. Perhaps someday my children will ask me to show it to them, and I will gladly do it. However, the dress did not seem so "simple" to many. A certain adult film producer sent Pippa an official letter with an offer to star in one of the erotic tapes for $ 5 million, calling her ass "the main star of the royal wedding."

11. As for the personal life of Pippa herself, she was always in full swing. The Duchess's sister started her first serious relationship while still studying at the university - her romance with the heir to the banking empire, Jonathan Paterson, lasted 3 years. Pippa's next boyfriend was Simon Jungman, again the heir, though this time of the diamond empire.

Pippa Middleton with boyfriend Simon Jungman After graduating from university, Middleton was in a relationship with Scottish aristocrat Billy Nesbitt for one year. And the longest relationship Pippa was with Earl George Percy, whose family owns Olnwick Castle, who "played" the role of Hogwarts in the Harry Potter movie. Pippa had known George since studying at the University of Edinburgh, but the romance between them began only in 2008 and lasted until 2012.

Pippa Middleton and George Percy For the past 1.5 years, Kate's sister has been dating stockbroker Nico Jackson, although she is not going to marry him yet. Soon the couple will have to overcome a serious test - Niko was offered to move from England to Switzerland and sign a lucrative contract there. However, according to sources close to the couple, Pippa and Niko are not at all afraid of the distance:
They are a real couple, their relationship is very strong and they are happy together.

12. Pippa was never going to be content with being the sister of a celebrity. She tries herself in different areas, for example, Middleton recently worked as a columnist for the Daily Telegraph, where she ran the Sport and Social blog. True, her career as a journalist quickly ended a few months ago. According to the employer of the British star, "she has exhausted herself and has become uninteresting to readers." Ah, it all started well.

13. Recently, the name of Pippa Middleton can often be found in news related to charity. She recently contributed to the creation of the Morning Sunshine cookbook, with proceeds from the sale of which will go to help sick children. Middleton also recently auctioned off her bike, with all proceeds going to the Michael Matthews Foundation and the British Heart Foundation.

In addition, Pippa has been an ambassador for the Heart Foundation since June of this year and has already helped raise over $20,000 for the organization during Race Across America.

14. With regard to cycling and sports in general, this is one of the main hobbies of Pippa Middleton. Every now and then she challenges herself by taking part in various sports. Of the latest - a bike tour of America and a swim across the Bosphorus, in which the British celebrity took part this year. According to Pippa, the "water" competition was very well organized and radically different from what she had previously encountered. Agree, a 6.7-kilometer forced march is no joke!

15. After Pippa's triumphant appearance at her sister Kate's wedding, the public began to follow not only her personal life, but also her style.

Even in her youth, Pippa decided on her preferences. The eldest daughter of the Middletons always preferred jeans and simple sweaters, while Pippa constantly experimented with style and was generally actively fond of fashion. Now the style of the sisters is in many ways similar - they both appear at social events in floor-length dresses, dress in a classic feminine style for meetings and charity trips, and in everyday life they can afford informal casual clothes.

Celebrities

It is often thought that people who have brothers and sisters, very lucky. It is believed that in a large family, the child will always be among friends who are ready to lend a helping hand in difficult times. In fact, of course, brothers and sisters do not always treat each other well.

Think of Diana, the most famous of the royal daughters-in-law. Sarah, Lady Dee's sister, did little to help the beauty, although she was her maid of honor. And brother Charles Spencer became Diana's enemy at all. Fortunately, Kate Middleton is very lucky in this regard. Pippa, sister of the Duchess of Cambridge, is still considered her best friend!

Like twins!

When Kate and Pippa were still very young, people often mistook girls for twins. Even now, the beauties are very similar.

In addition, the Duchess of Cambridge and her sister often wear the same fashion designers, preferring similar styles and colors. Look, for example, what Kate wore during her pregnancy and what a pregnant Pippa walked around just recently!

Baby Middleton

When the girls were very young, their family lived in Jordan for two and a half years. According to family friends, a very trusting relationship reigned in the Middleton clan back then. People assure: in this regard, nothing has changed over time.

First public appearances

In 2006, the sisters first appeared together in the world, getting out to the Cheltenham Racing Festival. By tradition, numerous visitors to the show strive to look as bright and unusual as possible. Here Kate and Pippa did not let us down. Just look at their hats!

The picture below was also taken in 2006. This captures an early moment of romance between Kate and Prince William.

Then no one could have imagined that the old girlfriend of an aristocrat would eventually become the Duchess of Cambridge and the mother of the heirs to the British crown!

Incredibly similar!

In 2007, Kate and Pippa went to the presentation of a book about Stalin's youth by the British historian Simon Sebag-Montefiore. Many later noted how similar the sisters seem in this picture. " They are like twins!”- the journalists were amazed.

Nights full of fire

The Middleton sisters did not forget about more mundane entertainment. The photos below show the girls after a night of dancing till you drop at London's famous cocktail bar. As you can see, Kate and Pippa were definitely not bored!

High style!

Already in 2008, when the picture below was taken, the Middleton sisters were known as style icons. Elegant and graceful, the beauties riveted the eyes of countless gentlemen. Even Prince William had to work hard to get the attention of one of them!

Kate's wedding

It was 2011 outside, and the sisters were preparing for a feast for the whole world. Kate married the heir to the throne of Great Britain in order to become queen in the future.

It is not surprising that the rising star chose her own blood as a bridesmaid for the wedding! Pippa was only delighted with this turn of events.

best of friends

As you can see, the girl treated her duties with absolute seriousness. The ubiquitous journalists later found out: before the ceremony, Kate was very worried, and Pippa supported and reassured her in every possible way.

Friendship continues

After the wedding of the Duchess of Cambridge, the sisters still kept in touch and often went out together. Here, for example, they are watching the 2012 Wimbledon tournament. Kate and Pippa love tennis!

Pippa's wedding

And here are the photos from Pippa's wedding in 2017. When her beloved sister married James Matthews, a representative of the Scottish aristocracy, Kate was there.

The older sister took care of the younger one - eyewitnesses say that before going to the altar, the Duchess of Cambridge personally examined Pippa's costume and straightened her train again.

Quarrel or not?

But just recently, journalists hit all the bells. When Pippa gave birth, Kate Middleton did not come to her. By the bed of Mrs. Matthews everyone visited, except for her adored sister.

People thought that a black cat ran between the sisters. Fortunately, everything soon became clear: the future queen was literally overwhelmed with affairs of national importance that day!

As you can see, Kate and Pippa Middleton have managed to carry their friendship through life. I want to believe that the sisters will forever remain best friends!

Let me remind you that we previously wrote about the protracted romance between Kate Middleton and Prince William.

Do not be born beautiful, but be born ... For example, the Middleton sisters were definitely born under a lucky star. The eldest, Kate, has been holding the title of Duchess of Cambridge for five years now and is raising two heirs to the British crown. The youngest, Philippa, commonly known as Pippa, is getting ready to marry a handsome, young millionaire. And it is still unknown which of the sisters was more fortunate. Secular observers believe - Pippe.

Some six years ago, Pippa Middleton was known only in a narrow circle. Private Boarding Marlborough College, University of Edinburgh, Diploma in English Literature. Outstanding success in studies or sports was not noticed.

But in one day the girl became a mega-star. On April 29, 2011, on the wedding day of Prince William and Kate Middleton, Pippa became famous all over the world thanks to her good physique and perfectly fitted dress.

A socialite with no special talents or career, Middleton quickly became one of the pretty enviable brides. And Pippa maintained her image: there were rumors of an affair with one of the representatives of the old aristocratic family, with a major financier, there was even talk of flirting with Prince Harry. But not only gossip and romantic adventures are alive girls from secular society. Pippa published a book on how to party properly, wrote glossy columns, and shone at various events. She was a star and at the same time only "the sister of the Duchess of Cambridge." Not that the shadow of a relative obscured the girl unpleasantly, but still. Somehow annoying.

But now the situation has changed dramatically, one might even say radically. Last weekend, Pippa received a marriage proposal from the financier, the owner of a large hedge fund, James Matthews, whom she had been dating for a year. The 40-year-old groom is not only handsome (by English standards, of course), well-educated, he also owns a fortune that exceeds the GDP of some third world countries. James really feels Pippa and is not averse to pampering his beloved. Proof of this - a diamond ring worth about 250 thousand pounds. By comparison, Kate's sapphire ring, formerly owned by Princess Diana, is valued at around £110,000 and is a Windsor family heirloom, meaning it was loaned to Kate. Feel the difference?

So, Pippa is clearly much more fortunate than her older sister - the infamous Daily Mail secular columnist Jen Moire is absolutely sure of this and provides pretty good evidence of this. The most serious of them sounds like this: despite her prestigious title of duchess, Kate will almost forever remain in the position of a bird in a golden cage, until the end of her life bound hand by protocol, the schedule of the royal palace and social conventions.

Her Ladyship is forced to constantly monitor her outfits and the clothes of her children (God forbid, George and Charlotte will appear in expensive designer clothes, this is a scandal!), Forget about Gucci, Dior and similar couture, as well as chic accessories. The worst thing for a duchess is to seem wasteful to the public. Therefore, she chooses relatively modest and inexpensive toilets, occasionally goes on vacation with her family to ski resorts. And he constantly monitors his schedule of meetings and visits. Who said being a princess is easy and simple?

Pippa will not have such problems in principle. She doesn’t need to demonstrate or prove anything to anyone. Her life is not scheduled by the clock. Versace dress? Please. New piece of jewelry? Why not? How about a holiday in St. Barts? James' parents own one of the luxury hotels on the island. By the way, Pippa can go to the island - just sunbathe - on a private plane of her future spouse. And almost at any moment.

But most importantly, the future Mrs. Matthews will not at all suffer from excessive attention from the press and the public. As you know, privacy is the key to a long and happy family life.

“Pippa had to look for her prince for a long time, but it was worth it,” sums up Moire. - She really caught a big fish. Let's wish Pippa and James happiness, they deserve it. And the Duchess of Cambridge can be annoyed all she wants. Buckingham Palace is unlikely to pay attention to this.
