Kate Middleton’s little brother James, 31, is working as a tour guide at a Scottish hotel

TALK OF THE TOWN: Kate Middleton’s little brother James, 31, is working as a tour guide at a Scottish hotel after his personalised gifts company posted losses of £3million

He seemed to be set for personal and financial success when, in 2013, he launched a novelty marshmallow business and began a high-profile love affair with actress Donna Air.

But life has taken an unexpected downturn for James Middleton, 31, the Duchess of Cambridge’s little brother – who has taken a job as a guide at a Scottish hotel owned by his other sister Pippa’s father-in law.

After splitting from Donna in February and with new accounts showing his business Boomf has posted losses of £3 million over the past three years – the youngest Middleton is working at Glen Affric Lodge near Loch Ness, owned by David Matthews, father of Pippa’s hedge fund manager husband, James.

The new role has seen Middleton posing for some cringe-making publicity pictures: one shows him in tweeds with a deerstalker, while another shows him posing cheesily with hotel guests at dinner.

And it seems the move north could be permanent. ‘The countryside is where I’m happiest and I’ll be taking my four dogs to Glen Affric with me,’ he said recently in a magazine interview.

That’s a killer look, Jodie 

Sh’s become a fashion icon in hit TV series Killing Eve, so it was no surprise to spot Jodie Comer in a very smart ensemble in the front row at Paris Fashion Week. 

Jodie, 25, who plays assassin Villanelle on the hit show, was checking out the new Loewe SS19 collection on Friday.

Her front-row seat is another sign of the stardom in store for the actress, who still lives with her mum and dad in Liverpool – as she rubbed shoulders with fashion royalty including model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.

‘Pinch me!’ Jodie wrote on Instagram. Bless!
