Kate’s sister is feeling more alone than ever.
As Pippa Middleton’s star fades, so too does her presence in her “best friend” Kate’s life. The 28-year-old is said to be feeling more and more left out as public adoration skyrockets for her older sibling.
Once Kate’s right-hand woman, and dubbed “her royal hotness”, Pippa has experienced a dramatic fall from favour in recent weeks. It’s believed she’s devastated over being snubbed for an invite to the Olympics – especially given that just one year ago, she would have been sitting pretty in the VIP section.
“Pippa has been crying her eyes out and has never been so lonely in her life,” says our source. “She’s been distraught seeing all these happy pictures of Wills, Kate and Harry at the Olympics.”
But perhaps the most cutting is that Kate seems oblivious to her misery. It’s believed Pippa hit rock-bottom when poison-tongued fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld recently sniped that Pippa should “hide her face…[and] only show her back”, and Kate didn’t jump to her defence.
