I have always enjoyed following the Middletons, and I like following Pippa in particular. If you are like me, you know we don’t see much of her anymore. When Pippa married James Matthew in 2016, People magazine reported several insiders saying that the couple hoped to essentially disappear and live a quiet life: “Middleton, 33, and Matthews, 41, have a ‘deep desire’ to disappear from the spotlight in the longer term,” a source told People, and another source reiterated that the two were looking forward to settling down and “having children and leading a quiet life.”

If you wondered at the time whether Pippa truly was set on such a future, so radically different from the path her sister was obliged to tread (and the public lifestyle that Pippa herself had pursued), you know by now that those reports were entirely accurate.
