It has only been days since Michael Middleton escorted his eldest daughter Kate down the aisle to meet Prince William in Westminster Abbey.\nBut on Monday, he was brought back down to Earth, and reality, as he carried out some gardening chores and mowed the lawn at the family home in Bucklebury, Berkshire.
\nWithout a care in the world and wearing gardening gloves and jeans, he hopped onto the ride-on mower to manicure the lawns around the country pile.
\nIt was a far cry from the Queen\u2019s classic 1977 Rolls-Royce Phanton VI that he had travelled in as nearly two-billion people across the world watched him make his way from the Goring Hotel to the abbey with the Duchess of Cambridge.
\nAfter partying late into the evening and mixing with Royalty at Buckingham Palace, the family returned to their home on Saturday after spending two-nights at the Goring Hotel.
\nThe buzz and excitement of the wedding over and the harsh reality of getting back to their daily chores and jobs will be setting in.
\nOn Tuesday, like their new son-in-law Prince William, they will no doubt be getting back to work at their online business, Party Pieces.
\nThe company has recently advertised for two positions to be filled, sparking speculation that the Duchess of Cambridge\u2019s only sister, Pippa, might become lady-in-waiting.
\nHer job would be to help Kate settle into Royal life as well as help keep her sister\u2019s diary.
\nMiss Middleton, 27, has become an overnight sensation after photos of her derri?re were splashed across the world.
\nThere are countless Facebook pages in praise of the maid-of-honour\u2019s behind, one of which, the Pippa Middleton Ass Appreciation Society, has over 44,000 fans.
\nIt rivals the main Pippa Middleton fan page, which has around 92,000 followers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
