As the aunt of the future king of England, Pippa Middleton likely felt the pressure while shopping for christening gifts for Prince George. Luckily, she reportedly found the perfect present in the form of Wrightson and Platt’s silver sculptures, which take molds from a baby’s hands and feet to keep forever, per the Daily Mail. The thoughtful gift apparently cost Kate Middleton’s sister £7,000 (approximately $8,700), but a royal family spokesperson refused to comment, telling the publication, “If such a gift exists it would be a private gift and not be something we would be aware of.”
Unfortunately for Pippa, not everyone thought the silver sculptures were a good choice. One person took to X to express their concern about the gift, writing, “Is it just me or are these a wee bit creepy.” In response to another post about the present, another commenter wrote, “that’s an awful gift for such a beautiful little cherub.” It’s never been revealed whether or not Kate and Prince William liked the gift, or if they also thought it was “creepy.” But nevertheless, Pippa spent a lot of money to celebrate her nephew.
