Pippa Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge’s sister, publishes a guide to how to ‘share the love’ on Valentine’s Day.

Pippa Middleton refuses herself to be lonely on Valentine’s Day despite her reported break-up with her long-term boyfriend, Alex Loudon.

Confronted with spending Valentine’s Day alone, this has not stopped Pippa to come up with a seductive plan to ‘spread the love’ by throwing a Valentine-themed party for a few friends, says one of her tips .

‘Hang some heart decorations around the room for extra kitsch-factor and drink sparkling wine or specially mixed Valentine’s cocktails from hot pink glasses,’ says her another tip.

‘How about dipping marshmallows and fruit skewers of banana, grapes and strawberries into a molten chocolate fountain,’ adds in her website. ‘Everyone can join in, just make sure you have napkins at the ready as things may get messy.’ Who could resist?

Pippa, 28, and Loudon, 31, a former England cricket hopeful, have an on and off relationship, but the couple were said to have split up last November after a series of rows.
