Pippa Middleton 'BANS' Vogue Williams from wedding amid reports Meghan Markle is blocked
PIPPA MIDDLETON has reportedly banned model Vogue Williams from attending her upcoming nuptials to James Matthews despite the fact that she is currently dating the groom's younger brother, Spencer Matthews.
Pippa Middleton has reportedly banned Vogue Williams from her wedding
Sources claim that 31-year-old The Jump contestant Vogue has agreed not to attend the much-anticipated wedding after Pippa, 33, expressed worries about her being present alongside Prince William and the Duchess of Cambridge.
"Pippa's view is that Vogue's relationship with Spencer is still very new. It wouldn't be appropriate for her to be there after just a few months of dating," an insider told The Sun.
"But some people in the circle are pretty shocked because this is her future brother-in-law who's going to end up attending on his own. It's certainly raised eyebrows."

Pippa is said to be worried about Vogue stealing the limelight
Made In Chelsea star Spencer, 27, began dating Vogue after they met filming Channel 4's notoriously dangerous winter sports show, The Jump.
They officially went public with their romance during a couple's trip to Paris last month.
The source claimed that the soon-to-be-wed Middleton sister wanted to avoid anyone stealing her thunder on the big day, saying: "It's clear Pippa doesn't want to be outshone by any TV babes on her big day."
The website reports that Vogue will not be attending the event, with a source close to the model saying: "She is working on the wedding day. It's a job that has been booked in for ages - so she won't be attending regardless."

Previous reports claimed that Prince Harry's girlfriend Meghan Markle might be banned as well
Reports previously surfaced that Pippa was implementing a "no ring, no bring" policy for her wedding to her hedge fund boss beau, meaning that Prince Harry's girlfriend Meghan Markle would be blocked from attending.
Pippa and James have set a May date to tie the knot at a low-key ceremony in her family's hometown of Englefield, Berkshire.
The party will then head back to her parents' house for a small reception in their back garden.
