Pippa Middleton's seven-month-old daughter has reportedly been christened, with the Prince and Princess of Wales in attendance.

Pippa, 39, saw her daughter Rose baptised in her family's local village church in Berkshire.

Little Rose, born in July 2022, is Pippa and financier James Matthews' third child, after two other children Arthur, four and Grace, one.

The young three are the grandchildren of Carole and Mike Middleton, who are also the grandparents of Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

The family managed to enjoy some recent quality time with each other after a brief trip to Saint Barthelemy in the Caribbean.

The christening happened earlier this week, and both Prince William and Kate, Princess of Wales, made the trip to be in attendance, according to the Daily Mail.

David and Jane Matthews, James' parents, purchased the resort in September 1995.

Pippa was spotted jumping into the sun-soaked waves, and the resort seems to be a popular place for the family to attend.

Pippa and James have been married since 2017, and were first spotted together in 2012 - though there was a brief parting of the ways as Pippa went on to date stockbroker Nico Jackson.

They actually first met when the Middleton family stayed at Eden Rock in 2007, it was claimed.

Pippa and James, a fund manager educated at Eton, didn't get back together until late 2015 or January 2016. They finally announced their engagement in July 2016 before finally tying the knot in St. Mark's Church in Englefield, England, in May 2017.

A mix of famous faces attended the event, including reality TV star Spencer Matthews, who is James' younger brother.

Pippa's sister Kate and husband Prince William also attended along with Prince Harry, though then-girlfriend Meghan Markle did not make an appearance.

Even tennis royalty Roger Federer joined the host of stars attending the event along with his wife Mirka.

The plush event was a big contrast to sister Kate's wedding in 2011, in which around 1,900 people attended the wedding of the future monarch William and billions watched around the globe.

For Pippa's wedding, estimates place the guest list at somewhere between 150 and 350 people.
