SOB! Kate Probably Won’t Be Pippa’s Bridesmaid On Her Big Day – And This Is Why

This kinda sucks, TBH.

Kate Middleton and Pippa

When Pippa Middleton was bridesmaid for her big sis Kate’s nuptials to Prince William, all the talk about her derrière nearly outshone the wedding itself.

Now with Pippa’s big day looming after her engagement to James Matthews, we totally assumed Kate would be returning the favour and playing maid of honour at her little sister’s wedding, but it turns out that might not be so.

According to veteran royals author Judy Wade, Kate probably won’t be Pippa’s maid as her global status would likely upstage the bride, which is kinda ironic given the attention that Pippa received at Kate’s wedding.

“Kate would upstage her sister,” Wade explains to People. “It’s a tricky situation for Pippa. She would want her sister by her side, as who else would she trust to make things go well?

“But if your sister is a future Queen, she is going to upstage the bride and draw attention. Kate would want to be in the background as much as possible.”

Hmm. While that may rule Kate out of the bridal party, it’s speculated that Kate’s son Prince George may be Pippa’s page boy and her daughter Princess Charlotte her flower girl.

Whoever Pippa chooses to have by her side on her big day, we’re dying to see the pics already!
