Pippa’s Pert Posterior Is Pipped by Peppa Pig

Kate Middleton's sister Pippa has just released a party-planning book but unfortunately it's not doing as well as predicted...

Last year, after the royal wedding,  everybody wanted a piece of her bottom but now it seems nobody wants to buy Pippa Middleton’s party book.

Well not nobody exactly. A couple of thousand have already forked out for Celebrate: A Year of Festivities for Families and Friends in its first week of sales.

Pippa’s book gives tips to those hoping to host a party.

But unfortunately it’s going to have to fare a lot better than that if it’s to cover the huge advance that the publishers gave the 29-year-old and surpass Peppa Pig’s latest release, Christmas Wish, which is doing better in the book charts.

While the poor sales might have something to do with the scathing reviews it got, it might also have something to do with the fact that famous royal relations don’t guarantee success.

She is best known for being the sister of Kate Middleton.
