The Duchess of Cambridge's mum, Carole Middleton, made an announcement at the weekend – and anyone with children in their life will want to pay attention.
A statement released via her business, Party Pieces, revealed that the grandmother-of-four has launched her first collection, creating party items for children's parties on three vibrant themes: Unicorn Fairy Princess, Dino Explorer, and Shooting Star.

James Middleton married Alizée Thevenet on Saturday 11 September, after postponing their wedding day twice.

The gown not only perfectly tied in with their destination wedding, which took place in Bormes-les-Mimosas, famous for being one of the most beautiful villages in the Côte d’Azur, but it also happened to be the exact dress that James' mother Carole Middleton wore on her big day with Michael.
"My something borrowed was in fact my dress from my mother-in-law Carole who last wore it 41 years ago on her wedding day in June, 1980," financial analyst Alizée explained.
