Could you blame her?

We all know that the lovely Pippa Middleton is expecting her first baby, yes?

The sister of Kate Middleton is due in January (I think?), and apparently she has taken a leaf out of the Duchess book.

Spencer Matthews, who is Pippa’s brother-in-law, was chatting on This Morning about his new niece/ nephew.

He revealed that Pippa and James will not be finding out the sex of their baby.

This is also a tradition in the royal family.

Presenter show’s host Ruth Langsford said: “So do they know if they’re having a boy or a girl?”

Spencer replied: “They don’t. They’re extremely private and honestly, we know nothing.”

Royal traditions dictate that royal parents do not get to know the sex of their child until it is born.

And while Pippa Middleton and James Matthews are not technically royal, they’re choosing to embrace the tradition.

Pippa Middleton and her sister have even shared a pregnancy, for a bit anyway.

The sisters were pregnant together for 12 weeks before Kate gave birth to Prince Louis.

I’m sure the two little cousins will become BFFs in no time!
