From Town & Country

  • Wednesday night, Pippa Middleton attended the Beating Hearts Ball, which benefits the British Heart Foundation.

  • For her first public event following the birth of her son, Middleton wore a patterned gown by Alice Temperley.


For the past few months, Pippa Middleton has kept a relatively low profile, but last night she made an appearance at the Beating Hearts Ball in London. The Duchess of Cambridge's sister wore a colorful floor-length dress by Alice Temperley, which featured a striking patten and a bow detail. Small stud earrings, a headband, and a bright red clutch completed her look for the fundraiser, which benefitted the British Heart Foundation. Per the Today show, Pippa served as an honorary gala chair and is a British Heart Foundation ambassador.

The party marked her first public event since the birth of her son, Arthur Michael William Matthews, last October. At the time, a spokesperson for Middleton reported that "Everyone is delighted and mother and baby are doing well."

This week has clearly been a busy one for the Middleton family. Pippa's sister Kate is currently on a whirlwind royal tour of Northern Ireland this week with her husband, Prince William.

The two-day trip is focused on celebrating young people and their achievements, but undoubtedly this visit was also meant to help calm anxieties about Brexit in the region.

In a subtle nod to the ongoing conflict regarding a Brexit plan, Prince William urged people to "come together in times of trouble and work for the common good," in his speech yesterday.
