It's a subject that for the past week has been generating no and of conversation among Big Apple-based Brits: Will Pippa Middleton — the party-loving, pert-posterior-owning younger sister of future Queen Kate — be making her home in New York?
Ever since she notoriously stole the show from her big sister at the royal wedding in April 2010, Pippa, 28, has been a star in her own right. She’s secured an advance of nearly $650,000 from Penguin for a book on the art of party planning, which is scheduled to be released in the fall, and split up with boyfriend Alex Loudon — who accompanied her to her sister’s wedding. And last month, she caused a scandal when she was photographed in an Audi in Paris, seated next to a pistol-packing French playboy named Arthur de Soultrait (who later apologized for waving the weapon, which he insisted was a toy gun).
