Pippa Middleton photos in Mustique reveal mystery man

Too bad new photos of Pippa Middleton and her new mystery man aren't taking any heat off her pregnant sister. While it's been widely reported that there pictures of the Duchess of Cambridge's baby bump in a bikini, the fact that Pippa appears to have a new man is barely getting any mention. The Daily Mail briefly reported it today (Wednesday) for the first time, but only as a footnote.

Editors defend publishing Kate's baby bump pics: 'Where's the scandal?'

In touting the photos of Kate's baby bump, it's been mentioned that there are also bikini pictures of Pippa. But according to new reports they don't just show Pippa Middleton in a pink and black stripped bikini -- they also show her with some arm candy. According to reports the socialite -- famous as much for her last name as her derriere -- was photographed walking hand-in-hand with the unidentified man. "(Pippa's) slim companion is topless, wearing dark swimming shorts emblazoned with multi-colored stars," the Mail reports in a Feb. 13 report.

How much did the Kate Middleton baby bump bikini photos sell for?

The couple joined Kate Middleton and Prince William, along with the girls' parents and brother, James, for the vacation. The royal couple reportedly likes to holiday on the private island of Mustique because it bans paparazzi. At least one of the publications that has purchased the series of pictures says the shots were actually taken by another tourist on the beach, not a professional photographer.
