Add to My Stories Share

She's one of the most eligible women in the country.

So it must have come to a great disappointment to party planners when Pippa Middleton pulled out of a glamorous City event at the last minute.

The Duchess of Cambridge's sister was due to attend the Square Mile Masked Ball this month.

Pippa is said to be staying away from the spotlight following her split from Alex Loudon, right

But following orders from Clarence House to keep a low profile, she has cancelled, the London Evening Standard reported.

The party, taking place on November 25th at the Royal Courts of Justice, is a charity event in aid of the the Mayor's Fund for London.

There will also be an after-party at Bungalow 8.

If the brunette did attend, it is likely her presence would generate world media attention.

But friends are said to have claimed she has been told to stay out of the spotlight following her break-up from Alex Loudon.

The pair reportedly split last week after a one and a half year relationship.

According to a friend of both Alex and Pippa, the 31-year-old former England cricketer could no longer copewith the circus that accompanies his girlfriend everywhere she goes.

Thefriend said: The plain truth is Alex adored Pippa but he couldnt stand the circus that now surrounds her. Nothing is straightforward anymore.

Inordinately private, with ! impeccab lemanners, the Old Etonian simply hated the attention ... attention that Pippa appears to rather enjoy.

Anotherfamily friend said: Pippa sees the connection with the Royal Family asa golden opportunity but she knows she cannot afford to look vulgar.

Shenow gets invited to every show in town, every door is open to her but Alex hates parties. He loves his cricket and has a very close-knit circle of Old Etonian friends. Alex comes from a very well-to-do and discreet family who do not relish the spotlight.

Hehated the fact they were followed by paparazzi and he avoided going outbecause of it. Alex is very strait-laced. He loves his family and his friends and has no time for celebrity.'

An official Clarence House spokesman refused to comment.
