Carole Middleton played the doting grandmother on Friday as she was spotted visiting her daughter Pippa's house. Photos obtained by the Mail Online show Carole, 63, walking into Pippa's Chelsea home and picking up parcels that were left outside. Among them were some personalised baby gifts and a luxury hamper filled to the brim with goodies. Carole embraced the autumnal weather in a bold £220 red coat by Boden and black ankle boots.
Her daughter Pippa gave birth to her first child – a baby boy – on Monday, making Carole a grandmother for the fourth time. The Duchess of Cambridge is already a mum to Prince George, five, Princess Charlotte, three, and five-month-old Prince Louis.
Pippa chose to deliver her son at the Lindo Wing at St Mary's Hospital – the same private unit where Kate welcomed all three of her children. The fitness columnist and her husband James Matthews are reported to have left the hospital on Tuesday evening, using a side door to shun the spotlight. Just hours before, Pippa's younger brother James Middleton had been pictured visiting the new mum in hospital.
