Look that shows Pippa’s ready to say I do!

- By Rebecca English Royal Correspond­ent

WITH less than two weeks until their big day, Pippa Middleton and her fiance James Matthews are clearly finding it hard to contain their delight.

For the usually private couple could not h hide their adoration of each other as they attended a church service.

Miss Middleton, 33, was seen gazing lovingly at her 41-year-old husband-to-be who, towering above her, looked equally besotted.

The pair stuck close together and as they entered the church, Miss Middleton – who looked stunning in a £220 Hoss Intropia coral jacquard coat over a cream dress and heels – cheekily placed a hand on his bottom, before clasping his hand tenderly.

Afterwards they kissed and hugged outside before waving to friends and heading off arm in arm into the spring sunshine.

The couple are also clearly taking their marriage vows very seriously, attending the service in Chelsea on Sunday in preparatio­n for their wedding on May 20. As revealed by the Daily

Taking their vows seriously

Mail last week, Miss Middleton and Mr Matthews have also been undergoing Christian premarital counsellin­g sessions. They have had five meetings with the Rev Nick Jones, who will marry the couple, and his wife Harriet.

The Church of England offers what it calls voluntary marriage preparatio­n, with sessions covering topics including in-laws and family issues, sex, communicat­ion, children, coping with conflict, and money.

The latter is unlikely to be an issue for millionair­e hedge fund manager Mr Matthews, who has his own private jet and a £17million house in an exclusive area of London.

It is not known whether the couple have drawn up a prenuptial agreement.

They will tie the knot at St Mark’s Church in Englefield, Berkshire, near the Middleton family home, with Prince George and Princess Charlotte as page boy and bridesmaid.
