Pippa Middleton Flashes Engagement Ring, Plans 2017 Wedding

Kate Middleton’s younger sister Pippa Middleton is engaged, she has landed herself a very cute, very nice and very rich fiance.

According to NBC News’ British partner ITV News, Matthews asked Middleton’s father for permission before proposing this weekend after less than a year of dating.

Pippa and Mr Matthews also shared their happiness in their own brief joint statement. “She knows how much this means to her and how much she loves James”.

It came shortly after confirmation that Pippa had split from financier Nico Jackson after three years together. After spending some time apart, they rekindled their romance late previous year. They split in September previous year, and it seems Pippa and James rekindled their relationship not long after.

The Duchess of Cambridge’s engagement ring is a decadent vintage jewel that featured a halo of diamonds around a central diamond. She wore a stunning Alexander McQueen dress for the occasion which nearly stole the show from her Royal sister.

Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge’s 32-year-old sister, announced Tuesday she is engaged to marry her boyfriend, James Matthews, a hedge fund manager.

Pippa Middleton played a prominent role at the 2011 wedding of sister Kate and Prince William. She announced the news to reporters outside her London home on Tuesday, showing them her stunning engagement ring and adding that she “couldn’t be happier”.

The engagement, which is said to have taken Pippa by complete surprise, has delighted her family. Like his future wife, he has a famous sibling – his younger brother Spencer Matthews is the star of the hit reality show, Made in Chelsea.
