Pippa's Big Day Fireworks

It’s the final countdown to the wedding of the year!

With just a week to go before Pippa Middleton marries her billionaire beau, the bride-to-be and her fiancé James Matthews showed just how in love they are as they left a Sunday church service last weekend.

The smitten pair, who are set to marry on May 20 in a lavish country wedding, could barely keep their eyes off each other, holding hands and stealing a kiss behind a bush. And pals say that with the wedding just days away, Pippa, 33, and James, 41, can hardly wait to say “I do”.

“They have a very special relationship,” a friend of the Duchess of Cambridge’s sister tells us. “They are very affectionate and hate to be apart. Neither of them have any doubts at all that they’ll be together forever.”

With her perfect pins, Pippa was showing off the results of her wedding slimdown. The already-trim star has been working out daily at an exclusive women’s gym near her $40 million London townhouse to hone her figure, as well as taking her and James’ two dogs out for regular walks. She has also relied on Pilates sessions to keep her calm in the lead-up to her big day and said recently, “Whether it’s 7am in the morning or 7pm at night, I always leave feeling calm, refreshed and invigorated.”
