Hmmm. William's split with Catherine. Percy splits from Pippa. Percy's contempt for the Middleton's. Belittling of Middletons in the press during the split. Hmmm.

This would be a difficult sacrifice... 
With Pippa it is not one

I have gotten the information about Earl Percy and Pippa wrong - sorry about that. I checked old articles of the Daily Mail from 2007 and found this one:
"It has not been a great week in the Middleton household. Just days after the shock announcement that Prince William has split from Kate, I have news of further heartbreak.
Kate's younger sister, Pippa, has separated from her wealthy aristocratic boyfriend JJ Jardine Patterson, whom she has been dating for three-and-a-half years.
The 22-year-old Edinburgh University student has told friends that she ended her relationship with the wealthy heir of the Hong Kong banking family because of his reluctance to commit to a serious relationship.
So it wasn't Earl Percy (whom Pippa was said to have dated earlier) but the "Taipan" heir Jardine Patterson she splitted from in 2007.
But I'm sure I recall an article about the "Wisteria-sisters" where it was said that Earl Percy's family was not happy about his dating of Pippa Middleton. Maybe in an article about Lady Katie Percy. Alas, I cant find that one.

Well here's the thing....I am adapt to believe they may no longer be so and I say this because my husband would not enjoy seeing me on vacation with another man, friend or not....so Earl Percy may not be her boyfriend but I'm begining to wonder if Alex still is? - only time will tell

I kinda agree with you. I wonder if all the publicity freaks him. Pippa is very much in the spotlight, and we rarely see them together.

Some of these writers are delusional ... her jeans may be slim fit but hardly could be called "skin tight". Just as they described the brides maid dress, it was form fitting but NOT skin tight. Sheeesh!!!

Very true!
Earl Percy was a romance at one time, so who knows if the spark might be rekindled? I don't believe Loudon would enjoy those pictures in the press.

The society wedding season has just begun - so let's wait for the pics from the next wedding Pippa attends as a guest and who's with her.

That might explain more why they are being seen together.
Even if they are just friends, that's too much time together with an ex...

Oh,now that explains a lot,I suppose they are just working together,though journalists make from everything love story speculations.After all,they call Pippa "her hotness" as if she were a Hollywood star,like Sharon Stone for example

George Percy is the heir of the 12th Duke of Northumberland...
Wouldn't that be funny if Pippa married him and became a Duchess as well! 
By all accounts they have been friends for the past ten years, but they say Pippa is ambitious...

Is she not dating that Loudon guy anymore? I find it weird that that Percy guy is in her life again all of a sudden.

Quite honestly, we don't know that he hasn't been out of her life.
Apparently they have been friends for years....but this sudden interest and over exposure of ALL THINGS PIPPA means that the press is putting A and B together and getting D.
Frankly, I dont' find it odd to be good friends with an ex. As long as the relationship ended amicably on both sides, and you realize that you were better off friends than a couple, and if your current boyfriend is confident in your (thats you and his) relationship...why not be friends?
