Oarsome trip: Pippa Middleton relaxes on a boat trip in Madrid with old flame George Percy and a female friend


Pippa Middleton had to run around for everyone else at her big sister's wedding last month.

But things are very different these days - her former boyfriends are waiting on her.

The 27-year-old is enjoying a well-earned break in Spain with a gaggle of girlfriends, and old flame George Percy.


Water babe: Pippa enjoys the ride


Yesterday, the 26-year-old Mr Percy came in handy on a boat trip in Retiro Park, Madrid's largest park.

No one had to lift a finger as the son of the Duke of Northumberland - one of Britain's richest men - showed off his rowing skills.

It marked a sedate moments in what appears to have been quite a lively trip.

Earlier Miss Middleton had dressed in a smart beige skirt, black jacket and heels, and partied until 4am at a swanky bar, The Penthouse.

On Friday night the group spent the evening at the city's exclusive Fortuna nightclub - Miss Middleton carrying a bottle of champagne in her red bag.

And if it was a heavy night, Pippa wasn’t going to let it show, emerging on Saturday morning sporting dark sunglasses and wearing a strapless black-and-white spotted sundress as she led her friends on a shopping and sightseeing trip, tourist map in hand.

After a few hours on their feet the group stopped at a cafe for a glass of wine. Pippa was spotted stifling a laugh as she gave her approval to photographs taken on a friend’s camera.

Miss Middleton and Mr Percy dated while at Edinburgh University and have been friends for nearly ten years.

It is understood Miss Middleton left her City trader boyfriend Alex Loudon at home.
