A WEEK after the royal wedding, newlywed Catherine and her little sister Philippa Middleton were making headlines again today for very different reasons.
The Duchess of Cambridge was seen shopping at a supermarket in Wales along with the common folk - while her sibling, known as Pippa, was hit by the public release of photographs of her cavorting with friends while wearing very little.
The photographs of Catherine's 27-year-old sister were published by websites in the US.
They showed Pippa stripped down to a purple push-up bra and flimsy white slip with a half-naked unknown male companion doing a "bump and grind" dance behind her.
Pippa has attracted plenty of interest since she graced last Friday's royal wedding in an elegant white gown as bridesmaid.
A Facebook page, called the Pippa Middleton Ass Appreciation Society, was set up shortly after she turned heads at the wedding and has since attracted more than 1800 fans.
And as the public grows interest in her life, pictures from her past as a party girl have started to surface.
Her royal sister, on the other hand, has a seemingly squeaky clean past.
Photographs of 29-year-old Catherine showed her playing the doting housewife as she mingled with other shoppers at a Waitrose supermarket on the island of Anglesey, off the northwest coast of Wales.
She is now making a home there with Prince William, 28, who is a Royal Air Force (RAF) search and rescue pilot stationed in the area.
Dressed down in a loose-fitting green poncho and white V-neck sweatshirt worn with skinny jeans and ballet shoes, the duchess happily pushed a shopping trolley and stopped to speak to workers, while her security detail hovered nearby.
Catherine and William earlier this week returned from a weekend break after the wedding, having delayed their honeymoon.
It was announced yesterday the two will visit the state of California from July 8 to July 10 at the end of their official trip to Canada.
The trip will be the duchess' first visit to America, while the duke previously visited the country but not in an official capacity.
