Pippa Middleton's nod to the Royal Family with newborn daughter's name
ok.co.ukPippa Middleton has appeared to give a subtle but sweet nod to the Royal Family with her newborn daughter’s name. It was reported earlier this month that the Duchess of Cambridge’s sister, 38, had given birth to her third child, and has gone on to name the tot Rose.
