Pippa Middleton Reels In Her Own Royalty

Royal bridesmaid Pippa Middleton is starting to follow in her sister’s noble footsteps — she has started to date a mega-rich earl whose real-life home is the castle used as Hogwarts in the “Harry Potter” movie series.

Twenty-seven year old Middleton is in a serious relationship with her former flame George Percy, heir to the Duke of Northumberland.

It is one of Britain’s grandest and richest, with a vast estate including Alnwick Castle, the movie setting for Harry Potter’s wizard school.

Twenty-seven year old Percy, — named “Prince of the North” by pals — will one day inherit the lot, which includes a fortune of $500 million.

A source close to the couple stated Thursday night that George is very smitten and totally in love with her. It is looking like the Middleton sisters will be completing the double before too long.

Middleton has been close friends with Percy for years. They met at Edinburgh University and had a love affair in their final year, in 2008.

Last year, they kept insisting they were “just friends” after he was seen helping her get over her break-up with banker Alex Loudon.

But it grew into love at a New Year’s Eve party given by the Middleton family.

The source revealed that Pippa sat herself next to George at supper and made sure she was on his arm all night. She then made her move.

The source added that it was like a shark circling its bait, adding that some people believe she has always set out to do this.
