The Middleton sisters have
patched up after a brief thaw in their relations, with the Duchess of Cambridge
now doling out tips to her sister Pippa
Middleton on how to work in United States, ahead of the launch
of the latter’s party-planning book ‘Celebrate.’

The 28-year-old reportedly upset
the royals and Catherine by hitting headlines regularly with her partying, love
life and the infamous ‘gun incident’ in Paris earlier this year, where she was
pictured seated next to a friend flashing a gun as they drove through Paris
streets in April.
However, Kate and Pippa have now
reconciled their differences after a heart-to-heart two weeks ago over the
party planner's conduct, say royal sources. After sorting out the matter the
duo are now said to be on better terms.
Now Magazine reports it was
Princes William and Harry who initiated the meeting, where Pippa agreed to curb
her loud behavior. “She's back in the Royal fold after reaching a pact with her
sister …She's acknowledged she put Kate in a difficult position and has agreed
to abide by some rules,” claimed a source.
Pippa Middleton is also said to
have agreed to allow Palace officials to guide and “advise” her on future
boyfriends. This was especially so after she infuriated the royals by dressing
as a burlesque dancer, freaking out at French aristocrat Arthur de Soultrait's
themed birthday party, earlier this year.
Proof of the improved relations
between Kate and Pippa was evident when they were photographed at the Wimbledon tennis final together, earlier this month. This
is the first time in months that they have been seen in public together.
Meanwhile, the rekindling of Pippa’s romance with up-market banker Alex Loudon
is also great news for the royals.
With things quite hunky dory
between the Middleton siblings, they are now said to be closer than ever
before. Despite the hiccups in their relations, Kate and Pippa share an
indissoluble bond, say insiders. There is very little that can totally break
this bond between the stylish sisters. Whatever life throws at the pair, Pippa
continues to be Kate Middleton’s closest confidante and vice-versa.
Naturally, now Kate Middleton
wants to do whatever she can to aid Pippa upgrade her image. A source close to
the Duchess told LOOK magazine: ''Kate clearly wanted to show that Pippa
is truly back in the royal fold.... The pair have been spending more time
together and Kate's even been giving her some tips for her promo tour around
the USA when she launches her party planning book there in October.''
Meanwhile, Pippa’s party planning
book 'Celebrate' and upcoming US
tour has come under scrutiny from the palace. Royal insiders claim, the
brunette has agreed to submit herself to training from Palace aides on how to
behave during the tour. A source said recently: ''She would normally be
expected to appear on every chat show under the sun. ''I know she won't do
anything that she hasn't run by the duchess' advisers, but it is still a very
tricky situation.''
One praiseworthy aspect of Pippa
Middleton’s character is that despite being given the chance to have her thick
party-planning book ghost-written, Pippa has resisted any such short-cuts
insisting on writing the book herself. The source said: ''She was offered a
whole host of ghost writers but said no to them all and is very proud that it
is all her own work… I just don't think she appreciated how much work it would
take and may need some help from her editors,'' added the same source.
