Here are some photos of Prince Harry & Pippa Middleton out in London on Saturday night. They were the guests of honor at the Boodles Boxing Ball, an annual charity event which raises money for terminally ill children and injured soldiers. Pippa brought a date, of course – her boyfriend Nico Jackson, who seems to have some very awkward angles, right? He’s attractive in some photos, but he looks very weird from angles. As for Pippa… I kind of hate her Catherine Deane dress. But you know how I’m incredibly opposed to mustards, pumpkins and oranges.
Meanwhile, did you know that the parody Pippa Tips Twitter account is back on? The PippaTips authors were facing down the full might of the Middleton wrath and lots of legal threats, so PippaTips went quiet for most of the summer. But they’re back now! They very clearly say: “Not Pippa Middleton, @Pippatips, Clearly a parody. This Twitter account is not endorsed by Pippa Middleton, or authorised by Pippa Middleton and it’s definitely not written by Pippa Middleton.” I’m so glad they’re back.
As for Prince Harry… I saw some reports over the past few days, something about Harry and Cressida Bonas “cooling off” if not outright breaking up. But Cressida was at the Boodles Boxing Ball, she just arrived with Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice, her good friends. Sources say Cressida and Harry did spend time together inside the event. I think it’s less a “cooling off” and more like Cressida learning how to play the game. Cressida and Harry can’t arrive to an event together, but Cressida gets so much help from Beatrice and Eugenie.

I like mustards! I’d like the dress if it wasn’t dragging all over the pavement. Bet there wasn’t a shred of hem left when she got home.
I actually don’t mind this dress.. The shoes are too heavy for it though
hate the dress – such an unflattering shape on her – but I like how she’s doing her hair. And her beau looks hot!
I actually like the dress, but I think you are so right – it just doesn’t flatter her body shape at all!!! Poor Pippa, she just has no sense of style or any idea of what works on her body. Even when she might have a hit, it still falls short and it’s a miss.
there’s way too much fabric on bottom I think..
Harry looks good as always.
Did he catch a piece of his shirt in his zipper? What’s that white bit hanging out of his fly in photo #3?
He seems a little light in the loafers, and she looks like her dress is someone’s home project involving curtains, a glue gun, and a prayer.
Harry is, as always, yumsters.
She’s too short and boxy for that look. The dress itself is okay, on someone else.
+1. And she’s the same color as the bottom of the dress. That has to be a no in the style book somewhere.
I like her hair. She looks more feminine when it is done up with those kinda waves. I like the top of the dress, would prefer a different color. Pumpkin and black are a bit halloweenish. Maybe hemmed a smudge shorter. I kinda get the dress, don’t hate it.
Can we please leave her alone?
I actually think she is quite deserving considering the constant mediatic will to
give her a bad reputation.
Good Lord, she’s worse at dressing herself than I am. I can safely say that even if I was as orange as she was, I’d stay ten feet away from that dress–she looks awful. And looks like she’s swimming in fabric.
Harry, Harry–you scamp. I swear, when I was first on this site, I didn’t see the attraction until I saw him in motion. He’s so cheeky, and has that look in his eye.
Haha yep! Orange skinned people should stay away from orange coloured clothing! 😀
Happy Halloween.
I love Harry.
That is all.
I don’t know if I can see them ending up together. While he is gorgeous, something about their body language, especially coming from Pippa, says “buyers regrets”. Did anyone else notice that at most, if not all the “society” weddings in the last year, Nico has not attended one with her? Like he’s not welcome in their exclusive (ahem, snobby) circle. Don’t be surprised if she “uptrades” him…
The society weddings never seem to have a “plus one” option. So he could not come unless invited by the wedding party. Since it is unlikely the people who are getting married really know him he would not be invited just because he and Pippa are dating. If they became engaged then he would probably be invited.
Is aging and Unflattering, so Par for The PippaCourse
Her dress is chav.
Cheap chav.
Am I the only one who doesn’t find him in the least bit attractive? He comes off as fussy and plastic to me.
Physically I find Harry cute, but not attractive. Then you see him interact with kids and read how active and motivated he is and that makes him very hot.
I can’t see where he seems “fussy”. More laid back is how I see him.
Oops! I meant Pippa’s boyfriend.
Adore me some Harry!
I think Harry has the potential to be devastating if he continues to allow his work/charities to continue to grow and expand him character-wise, life-wise, charm-wise, and soul-wise (unlike his brother). If he continues in the direction he’s currently going, I think he will hit his stride around 35 – 37 in terms of his overall attractiveness. (I really think he looks so much like his father in these pics.)
Pippa, Pippa, Pippa. Ugh. As others have mentioned, there is just too much fabric around the bottom and what’s up with the hairclip holding the bands of her dress together? Ladies across the pond, surely she’s not considered the height of fashion or even a trendsetter? Is she? Cause if she is . . . I feel sorry for y’ all. I do. I really do. On the positive side, I do think the dress could look good on someone else, someone taller and some who has a different figure or the type of figure that would flatter the dress. Neither she nor it complements the other.
Nico looks like a player from the 80s. He reminds me of George Harrison (the guy with the perpetual tan). What’s his name? Anyway, I have said this before and I will say it again, I believe the Pipster and the Mids have met their match in Nico and, indeed, have been out-classed. He looks like a barnacle that’s going to stick to her azz (and not in a good way) and be a thorn in their side—unless he gets a big payoff. He looks like he knows how to play the game—and playing the game he is. He looks so bored with her. He always looks as if he is on assignment.
My two cents (which is around the same amount she would have paid for that dress at a rummage sale or the goodwill if only she’d taken the time).
BTW—what’s up with Eugenie’s move to NY? When does Zara have her baby? Is Beatrice engaged? UK royal watchers want to know.
Not sure if this will post. Internet problems (so I may have a double post. Sorry.)
Mich! where’ve you been?
Hi 🙂 I’ve had a busy few months!
ITA. He’s just not my type. He looks like he wouldn’t know how to have an interesting conversation outside of loafers and stocks. Plus, does his chest look weird to you? It’s always awkwardly protruding.
I think he’s good-looking, looks to have a great body, but he seems like a guy who buys into his own hype (kinda like Pippa), who stares at his mirror and does Zoolander poses.
And then he would constantly remind you to compliment his handsomeness. If this were the 1790s, he’d be considered a dandy.
I haven’t seen any other photos of him, or rather haven’t had a look at them. He reminds me of Paul Bettany and Chris Martin, therefore, I like him.
He is a ringer for the actor Perry King. He’s fairly old now, but if you google pics of his younger days…..clones!!!
PT: When a popular holiday approaches, dress in colors that represent it. For example, orange and black would be appropriate for Halloween.
lol i love your pippa tip ↑
Pippa looks ridiculous! I can’t understand all the fuss about the royal wannabe! If she could manage it, she’d be all over Harry! He’s so cute & appears to be a lot of fun. She wants her sisters life so badly, she may as well have a neon sign flashing.
That Pippa is dying to be with Harry seems to be an article of faith with many people. But Pippa has never shown any interest in Harry in all the years they have known one another. They are rarely seen in the same vicinity – even when attending the same function they hang out with their own separate sets. The only time they were seen together was at the Royal Wedding, where they laughed and joked as would be expected of two people attending their siblings’ wedding. After that – nothing.
Pippa has had three serious boyfriends. None of them had a title, all are rich, tall and good looking. That is what she wants.
Exactly. Pippa has known Harry about as long as Kate as known William. These people hang with each other at the same parties/balls/clubs. Pippa has never wanted Harry and Harry has never wanted Pippa. The only aristo Pippa has really been with was that Percy guy and they were like brother and sister. Pippa has a type and she will most likely marry someone like Nico rather than an aristo. I think it’s time people left her alone. She doesn’t deserve the criticism she’s getting.
Yes, but did Pippa interact at all with Harry. Going by the ball’s own website of pics and bouts, this is Harry and the York’s crowd. And we all know they can’t stand the pipster….
BTW this event is held every 2yrs, not annually.
Orange on orange is never good.
love this!
Oh, damn, the shade!
She always looks like she’s in need of a good shower…with lots of body wash to scrub her off. Too orange, and she often looks cheap and unkempt.
Ew, no, Pippa, Halloween in September, not feeling it.
Why not show photos of Bea and Cressida or any of the other women there? Zara was there wearing a blue dress that looked like a tent. Where’s the photo of her? Why just Pippa? This “let’s hate on Pippa” is getting really old.
Calm down, Carol. If you don’t want poor Pippa to be criticized, you shouldn’t pimp her out.
Colors should have been the other way around, orange on top, black on bottom.
It still would’ve been an UGLY dress.
Is it just me, or do her arms look more muscular? (Not that that’s bad). Lol @ the pic with the woman in the pink dress standing right behind her- That face contortion is a dead ringer for Carole.
Her arms should be more muscular, she took up boxing to build up her upper body strength for skiing marathons

I’d like this dress…if it were knee length, the top was cream instead of black and it lost those weird faux leather fasteners. I don’t mine the pumpkin which is weird because normally I hate everything about pumpkin, including the smell.
I’d also be ok with this if the whole thing was cream – I love that neckline!
Her face is tragic.
Yikes the woman just turned 30??
She looks pretty much like my friends do…we are in our late 40s.
Pippa better watch out…Nico has been paraded around all the posh parties and he might just play the uptrady game that Pippa used so well.
It shouldn’t be too difficult considering that he can’t get much lower or trashy than the Pipster.
I read a lot here that Pippa is shallow, self-important and not too bright but and I would say there is proof of that, but low and trashy? Really? If this is more than just fun snark I would love some examples. My Pip gossip doesn’t go back far enough to understand your comment or if it is fair.
WTF, is she wearing black suede birkenstocks? That’s what the bloody well look like.
To all the people saying leave her alone – Pippa puts herself out there to be scrutinized, and don;t forget you ARE on a website called celebitchy. If you don’t like it, sod off.
