Pippa Middleton’s Savage Thoughts on Vogue Williams: A Tale of Two Sisters-in-Law

BBG News

As I navigated the challenges of a typical mom on a lengthy air voyage, overseeing my trio of energetic little ones, I couldn’t help but feel like an everyday hero.

Catching my breath, I dashed up and down the aisle, my heart pounding with excitement as I guided my little ones, all under five, towards our Christmas escape in St Barts. My fellow travelers watched in admiration, even though our dedicated nanny was right there too, because nothing could stop this momma bear from making sure her cubs had the best holiday ever!

Passengers aboard the British Airways flight from Heathrow to Antigua in December 2022 were even more surprised when they recognized the woman as none other than Pippa Middleton, the sister of the future queen.

Besides this, it’s worth noting that her spouse, finance magnate James Matthews, was seated a few rows behind them, engrossed in the Daily Telegraph, apparently unaware of the events unfolding around him.

Pippa, James, along with their kids Arthur (age 6), Grace (4), and Rose (2) were heading towards the luxurious Eden Rock hotel owned by James’ parents, Jane and David Matthews, situated in the Caribbean.

Surprisingly, they were not travelling first or business class, but World Traveller Plus.

To passengers in the premium economy section, this interaction showed that despite once being mocked for her guidebook about hosting a flawless party, Pippa has become more approachable and unpretentious over time.

One observer noted that James was peacefully engrossed in a newspaper, while Pippa, tending to her children (one quite little), efficiently managed without any fuss or commotion.

The next day, Pippa, aged 41, was seen appearing exceptionally stunning on the beach, much like her sister-in-law Vogue Williams did earlier this week, as she enjoyed the sun at Eden Rock with her entrepreneur husband Spencer, a former reality TV star.

Although they share similarities like being married into the same affluent family and having three young kids, the differences between them are as clear as daylight.

One source close to Vogue shared with me: ‘There’s a notable difference between Pippa and her sister She [She being the name of the other person], as well as between James and Spencer. It makes you ponder about the discussions that might occur among Pippa and her family regarding Vogue.’

For not only do Pippa and James highly value their privacy, they also like to remain low-key.

Even though they’re billionaires, Pippa and James opting for premium economy flights reveals their preference for a low-key lifestyle.

It’s unclear which type of air travel Vogue and Spencer typically choose for their frequent trips to St Barts, but it’s clear that they often opt for private jets, as evidenced by their use of one for their 2018 wedding journey to Scotland.

In terms of parenting, it’s not surprising that the woman who managed her children’s needs during a nine-hour flight with minimal help from her husband might find herself frustrated about an uneven division of household tasks at home. Recently, Vogue, aged 39, disclosed on the Netmums Podcast that she bears most of the domestic responsibilities and childcare duties, leading to disagreements in their relationship.

As a devoted admirer, I was curious to know if Vogue and Spencer have found themselves in an unusual scenario—one where she might be mending a malfunctioning radiator, while he handles the school run duties.

The TV host openly confessed, “In a polite manner, I’d put it this way: I repair our faulty radiator, and I take care of the school run.

In a recent podcast conversation with her sister Vogue and Amber, she humorously admitted that she takes care of about 80% of household responsibilities, which they’ve been discussing this morning. There seems to be a small disagreement regarding the tasks she handles. She chuckled and expressed her exhaustion, stating “I’ve had enough today!” Additionally, she shared an amusing anecdote about their youngest son, Otto, who woke up Spencer in the wee hours, leaving him furious.

It’s worth considering if Pippa might follow the path of Vogue and suddenly end her marriage, given that he accomplished an unprecedented feat of running 30 desert marathons in just 30 days.

Towards the end of August last year, after completing an incredible feat, the family of four (including their three children) jetted off to Jordan. Shortly afterward, Vogue returned to her homeland, Ireland, to start her skincare business, leaving her husband behind with their kids. The following day in London, Spencer celebrated with a pizza party surrounded by his relatives and friends – except for Vogue. As any busy family does, they spend time apart occasionally, but this week they were together again as they visited Spencer’s parents.

The last time all the families vacationed on the island was in 2019. Notably, photos captured Pippa and Vogue going for a jog together during that trip. Vogue donned an animal print bikini top, while Pippa opted for a sporty black vest top. Their smiles seemed genuine, but they appeared somewhat forced.

A previous coworker of Vogue’s notes that it’s puzzling what there could be to discuss between them, as they seem like two entirely distinct individuals. However, due to the fact that their husbands have married, they find themselves in a situation where they are compelled to interact.

Despite their differences, it’s noted that Jane Matthews treats her daughters-in-law equally. In fact, each of them has a room at Eden Rock named after them.

At its most expensive during peak times, the ‘Pippa Suite’ is renowned as one of the resort’s premium deals, priced at approximately £2,825 for holidaymakers. The Eden Rock website characterizes this luxurious, one-bedroom suite as a ‘land yacht’, or a superyacht on solid ground.

Villa Vogue is a recently constructed villa boasting a Provencal-inspired interior design, a private swimming pool, and stunning vistas of St Jean Bay. The price tag for this property is approximately £20,000.

It seems that the visits of Pippa and James, Spencer and Vogue to their shared location don’t often coincide. Last year, for example, Pippa and James spent February half term there, while Spencer and Vogue dropped by five weeks later in April and again in July. Additionally, they haven’t been observed socializing together in the UK.

A friend of Vogue’s commented, ‘It seems they don’t share the same social circle.’ It leaves one questioning what topics they might discuss. If I were Pippa, I’d find Vogue’s behavior during her vacation, promoting her fashion line, a bit garish.

Gazing at photos of my little ones frolicking on the sandy shore, I can’t help but feel an indescribable sense of joy. It’s a thrill beyond measure to witness them in their element! I am overjoyed with how things have unfolded; they are simply adorable in every moment.

Instead, it’s worth noting that Pippa maintains a private Instagram presence, keeping her personal life and her children out of the public eye.

Although the two sets of neighbors reside less than two kilometers apart in London, their residences stand as stark contrasts to one another.

Pippa and James reside in a five-story, £17 million home on a highly desirable street in west London. This luxury property features an underground cinema, an elevator, a dedicated staff area, and six bedrooms, each with attached male and female dressing rooms for the master suite. Additionally, they own a 32-bedroom Georgian mansion in Berkshire, valued at £15 million, sprawled across 150 acres, which they acquired off-market in 2022.

Vogue and Spencer reside in a contemporary apartment situated in Battersea. This two-story, recently constructed dwelling (which they aim to sell for their ‘eternal home’) boasts an open-concept kitchen and living space, four bedrooms, plus additional features such as a home gym, bar-cinema room, and sauna.

It’s understandable that the two sisters-in-law might have differing personalities, given that their husbands are quite dissimilar, like chalk and cheese.

After attending the highly esteemed Eton College, which costs around 60,000 pounds annually, James subsequently honed his skills as a trader at Spear, Leeds & Kellogg, a firm that is now a subsidiary of Goldman Sachs.

In a professional shift, he advanced to the position of a seasoned equity options dealer at Nordic Options Limited. Now, he’s the one in charge, managing his independent hedge fund, named Eden Rock Capital Management Group.

Hi there! As a lifestyle advisor, I’d put it this way: “After embarking on my academic journey at the sunny University of Southern California to pursue film studies, and subsequently launching my career in reality TV through Made In Chelsea, I found myself taking a new path. Most recently, I’ve delved into the world of non-alcoholic spirits with CleanCo, following my personal battle with alcohol.

James has never openly discussed his older brother Michael, who is believed to have perished during a snowstorm on Mount Everest in 1999 and whose story was the subject of a documentary by Spencer titled “Finding Michael,” which is now available on Disney+.

According to those acquainted with Spencer, this statement encapsulates the striking differences between the siblings – a difference that might explain their distinct choices of partners.

‘Spencer is brash and James is understated,’ says a friend. ‘Just like Vogue and Pippa.’
