Kate Middleton will be in attendance with her husband, Prince William, as well as their kids, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, at the wedding of her sister, Pippa, next month. However, she won't be as big of a part of the wedding as Pippa was for hers - remember when she was the breakout star at Westminster Abbey? RelatedEverything We Know About Pippa Middleton's Wedding Back in December when Pippa's wedding date was released, it was reported that Kate would not be acting as Pippa's maid of honor because she didn't want to "upstage her sister" (awww). So while she won't be, say, carrying Pippa's train down the aisle or standing near her at the altar, Kate will likely do a reading during the ceremony. After Pippa and James say their vows at the St. Mark's Englefield in Berkshire, UK, they and their wedding guests will travel the six...

Pippa Middleton was all smiles while stepping out in London on Thursday, and it's pretty obvious why: the Duchess of Cambridge's younger sister got engaged to her longtime boyfriend, James Matthews, earlier this week after the financier popped the question during a stroll through England's Lake District. We first got a glimpse of Pippa's gorgeous new ring when she left her home on Tuesday, and despite the diamond's size, somehow Pippa is still walking on air. The only snag? Pippa's sister, Kate, may opt out as a member of her wedding party - People reports that it's a "tricky situation" and that Kate wouldn't want to "upstage her sister" by being her royal maid of honor. Veteran royals author Judy Wade added, "Kate would want to be in the background as much as possible."...

Princess Kate has said she is "absolutely delighted" with the news that her sister Pippa Middleton is engaged to hedge-fund manager James Matthews. But will she be in the bridal party as matron of honor? The elder sister, 34, faces an age-old royal conundrum of not wanting to cause an upset by having her princess status overshadow the bride, 32, on her big day. As bridesmaid-of-the-century Pippa found when she rose to fame as the breakout star of the 2011 royal wedding, there's likely to be analysis of the attendants as much as of the bride. And Kate will want to do her best to avoid that.

It may be one of the most romantic places in the world, but when Prince William and Princess Kate took the long walk back from the Taj Mahal on Saturday, they did so solemnly and slowly - with very little Pda. While they have been known to hug passionately at sporting events - and laugh together as they attempt archery, the sport of choice in Bhutan - the royal couple often keeps a stoic, very British decorum at most public events. • Want to keep up with the latest royals coverage?

Like generations of married couples before them, Prince William and Princess Kate have wrestled with that age-old family conundrum: where to spend Christmas. Since their wedding three years ago, the couple have gone the diplomatic route of alternating the yuletide holiday between their two families. On their first Christmas, in 2011, it was the traditional royal family gathering at Sandringham House, in Norfolk, the Queen's sprawling country estate located some 110 miles north of London. The following year, it was off to the Middleton family mansion in Kate's hometown village of Bucklebury. Then, last Christmas - their first with baby Prince George...

When Prince Charles called Joan Rivers "utterly irreplaceable" on Friday, he was paying tribute not only to a groundbreaking comedian but also his friend. Like millions around the world, Charles, 65, and his wife, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, expressed sadness about her death on Thursday. For Charles, who since his youth has been a fan of zany humor, Rivers was one of those often-edgy performers who put a smile on his face, regularly joining him at fundraisers or for events at his country home. She was a guest at his wedding to Camilla in 2005, and when he turned 60 three years later,...

Handing off the reins? Or, reigns? While Prince Charles is set to take a more central role in the life of the British monarchy - stepping in to help his 87-year-old mother, Queen Elizabeth - palace sources strongly deny this means the Queen is preparing to step aside for her son. She is still planning a full year of engagements, and a visit to Normandy for the anniversary of D-Day landings is not "out of the question," one says. Still, a key step underway is to merge the press teams of the two households, under the command of Sally Osman,...

From opposite ends of the Ping-Pong table, the famously competitive parents of Britain's future monarch grinned at each other, and then let fly. "Ahem, I think that was 6-2," William said, declaring victory over Kate during their visit to a Glasgow sports center April 4. But, after his official duties were done, he turned to Lord Lieutenant Sadie Docherty, the couple's host for the day, and chivalrously fessed up: "The only reason I won today was because Catherine was pregnant," the prince told Docherty, who recounted the conversation to People.

Prince William may not let his six-months-pregnant wife, Kate, win at ping-pong - "Ahem, I think that was 6-2," he teased after beating her in an impromptu match at a Scotland youth center April 4 - but he is getting ready to make bigger concessions to his family-in-the-making. A source close to William tells People the prince will soon announce he's leaving the Raf Valley - a search-and-rescue helicopter unit based in Anglesey, Wales. His work there kept him away from Kate, and the cozy farmhouse they shared with dog Lupo, for as many as 10 24-hour shifts each month. William has...

Having spent the recent New Year's holiday apart, Kate has since been reunited with husband William in time to spend the day with him.

As the couple approach their first wedding anniversary, speculation about a royal bun-in-the-oven is at a fever pitch! As soon as Prince William, 29, and 30-year-old Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge, married on April 29, 2011, the world has been on a royal baby bump watch. But that time might finally be here! Insiders say the couple are preparing for a little one, according to People. If history repeats itself — both Queen Elizabeth and Princess Diana were pregnant before reaching their first wedding anniversary — then Prince William and Kate will be trying for an heir as soon as possible.

Although the palace remains mum, a Palace source reveals that the couple have put plans for a trip to Africa on hold. The reason remains unclear,...
