The 2011 London holiday gala season may be short one major socialite: Pippa Middleton.

Duchess Kate's stylish, spotlight-stealing sister, 28, has cancelled plans to be among the high-profile revelers at the Square Mile Masked Ball Nov. 25.

"Pippa was set to attend the Square Mile Masked Ball on November 25th yes but sadly is no longer attending," a spokeswoman for the event tells Us Weekly.

"They heard from Pippa last week. She and a guest were due to attend but ball organisers heard the plans had changed on Thursday," an insider adds.

Perhaps Middleton doesn't know who to invite now as her plus-one. After all, about three weeks ago, she finally ended, for good, her romance with Alex Loudon.

"Pippa tried to get over the split by spending last weekend with [William and Kate] at Balmoral," a source told British paper The Sun. "She and Alex split briefly in the summer, but this time it's over. They are barely speaking."

In the wake of that painful split, the insider tells Us: "From what I hear Pippa's been making a few alterations to her social calendar. It looks like she's trying to keep a low profile -- which is a bit of a change."

    Pippa Middleton is right in there with Oprah Winfrey since she helped finanace The Lords of 2112 book and the radicals that adhere to its dogma. Loudon wants no part of the problems she has created.

    The more I read about Pippa, the more I dislike her. Yes she is an attractive woman who happens to become famous because her older sister may become queen someday. She is taking advantage of being related to the royal family and she knows it. She should take a cue from her sister the Duchess. She has more class than her. Pippa, I wonder why your boyfriend and his family didn't think you were good enough. Is it because you are a media monger.
