Pippa's gotta eat!

As revealed in just-released pics, Pippa Middleton was all smiles last Wednesday evening as she grabbed dinner in central London with a handsome man: George Percy. After their one-on-one meal at a local eatery, they headed back to Percy's apartment.

The next morning, Duchess Kate's little sister was reportedly seen leaving Percy's flat, bidding her pal goodbye with a hug and kiss.

The son of the Duke of Northumberland (one of England's richest men), Percy is an old college chum of Middleton and now a co-worker: Duchess Kate's little sister recently took a job as a lobbyist at Percy's geothermal energy firm.

But Percy and Middleton (he joined her and pals for a weekend in Madrid last month following the royal wedding) continue to be the subject of romance rumors -- especially with some British tabloids reporting over the weekend that Middleton and Alex Loudon, her financier beau of over a year, have ended their romance.

Split or not, as of late last month, one Middleton pal told Us Weekly that Middleton and Percy will remain platonic. "She loves George, but only as a best friend. They always just been mates!"

    Not to be rude, but you read the article incorrectly "Plumb Annie". The article clearly says that Percy and her are friends (maybe more), and Loudon is the guy she just broke up with.... Regardless, I think Pippa is fabulous but not as newsworthy as US would want us to believe.

    US has the wrong guy. This is NOT the boyfriend she just split with. She broke it off with Alex Loudon. Percy is her ex boyfriend from college who's she's been hanging out with since her recent split with Alex. Secondly, I don't know why this girl is in the news here. Because she was in a wedding of the royals? Over it.

    Poor guy. He does not want to be in pictures,lol. Why would she need to be a gold digger? Her parents have their own millions.

    Gold digger I agree; she's taking full advantage of being Kate's sister. Hope she knows those interested in her are doing the same. The woman is average; give it a rest.

    From all the men they say she dated, she sounds like a professional gold digger that don't do sh!t all day. I know her family has money, but that still don't mean she's not a gold digger.
