Pippa Middleton’s friendship with married venture capitalist Ben Goldsmith is reportedly raising eyebrows.
In an unconfirmed report, In Touch charges that Middleton is “too close to a married man.” According to the magazine, Middleton connected with Goldsmith at a party on Oct. 13, when she was still dating Alex Loudon. Since, the two have reportedly grown closer.
PIPPA MIDDLETON SPLITS FROM ALEX LOUDON
A friend of Middleton’s tells the magazine, “Pippa’s increasingly flirtatious relationship with Ben is why Alex must have broken off his engagement with Pippa … Pippa and Ben are regularly calling, texting, having dinners together.”
Goldsmith is reported to be having relationship problems with his wife, with whom he has three children.
According to the friend, Kate Middleton is nonplussed about the alleged object of her sister’s affection.
“Kate is urging Pippa to stay away and says this has disaster written all over it,” the friend explains.
Pippa Middleton split with boyfriend Loudon last month after a series of fights, reports say. A few weeks later, Middleton was seen at the ATP World Tennis Tour flirting with a mystery man.
