Look, it’s not a royal baby as such but when Pippa Middleton welcomes her first child with billionaire husband James Matthews later this year it’s going to be a pretty exciting event!
After all, her wedding last May served as the ultimate warm up to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Royal Wedding.
Since her scene-stealing role at older sister Kate’s wedding to Prince William in 2011, Pippa Middleton has become a star in her own right.
And now the author is gearing up to become a mum.
So, when exactly is Pippa Middleton’s due date?
According to The Sun, it’s believed Pippa and James will welcome their baby October, which is just three months away!

The publication claim the couple told their close friends and family they were expecting at the end of May, after they reached the 12-week mark, which would mean she would be gearing up to give birth in October.
The 34-year-old confirmed her beautiful news in her monthly column for Waitrose magazine last month.
Unlike sister Kate, Pippa explained she was thankfully not suffering from morning sickness.
“I was lucky to pass the 12 week scan without suffering from morning sickness. That meant I was able to carry on as normal,” she said.

The fitness guru also wrote about adjusting her rigorous workout regime to ensure a healthy pregnancy.

Pippa’s first-born will have royal playmates in first cousins Prince George, who turns five this month, Princess Charlotte, three, and baby Prince Louis.
