A shining moment at Wimbledon
On a memorable day full of applause and cheers in the heart of Wimbledon, Kate Middleton had the honor of presenting the trophy to the talented Carlos Alcaraz. Beside her, her inseparable sister, Pippa Middleton, did not leave her side for a moment. While the Princess of Wales steals the spotlight in her few public appearances after receiving a cancer diagnosis, Pippa’s life unfolds in a dream environment, away from the cameras.
A dream mansion in Berkshire
Pippa and her husband, James Matthews, an expert in money management, have made their home in a luxurious Georgian-style mansion in Berkshire. Acquired for the astonishing sum of 18 million euros in 2021, this incredible residence has 32 rooms and stands on a 60-hectare plot of land, where you can even find a private river. The mansion was purchased off-market and has been completely remodeled, offering the couple and their three children—Arthur, Grace and Rose—a life fit for royalty. It is reported that they have plans to convert the extensive walled garden into a spectacular Olympic swimming pool and modern tennis court, transforming the former conservatory into elegant changing rooms.
A comfortable and luxurious style since your marriage
Since her marriage to James Matthews, Pippa has been accustomed to luxury residences. Before moving into their current home, the couple sold their west London home for a whopping £25m, a figure significantly higher than the one James paid in 2014. This previous home had six bedrooms, a gym, and even a private cinema, reflecting their privileged lifestyle.
The most modest home of the Princes of Wales
A few kilometers away, Kate Middleton and William, Prince of Wales, live in Adelaide Cottage, a residence considered modest compared to the ostentation of Pippa’s mansion. With only four bedrooms, this house is situated within the vast park of Windsor and is a short distance from the castle of the same name. Although her home is less luxurious, Adelaide Cottage offers a cozy setting, serving as Kate’s refuge during her cancer treatment. The décor, including a stunning Greco-Egyptian marble fireplace and gold accents in the master bedroom, is nothing short of fascinating in its own right.
A notable contrast between both lives
The difference in the lives of the Middleton sisters is undeniable. While Kate, like Princess of Wales, opts for a simpler lifestyle focused on her royal and family responsibilities, Pippa lives a luxurious existence that seems straight out of a movie. No one could have anticipated that the sister who did not join the royal family would end up residing in a mansion that could eclipse that of the future Queen of England.
