She's been keeping something of a low profile of late, but Pippa Middleton still has time for her old friends.
The younger sister of the Duchess of Cambridge was spotted strolling through Chelsea this morning with her long-term pal and ex-boyfriend Tom Kingston, who is now dating Gabriella Windsor.

Charity ambassador Pippa, 34, was linked to Bristol graduate Tom back in 2011 when they were spotted at the ATP Tennis finals following her split from cricketer Alex Loudon.
He used to procure the release of hostages in Iraq before moving into the world of finance at Schroders private bank.
But the romance fizzled out and Tom, a friend of Prince William, is now dating Lady Gabriella, daughter of Princess Michael of Kent, while Pippa is happily married to financier James Matthews.
For today's outing Pippa kept the cold at bay in a black and white houndstooth coat, which added a smarter edge to her black skinny jeans and trainers.
Despite the dull afternoon, she covered her eyes with a pair of statement shades - perhaps hoping for a spot of winter sun.

Pippa has blissfully settled into married life with her new husband financier James Matthews after the pair tied the knot in a lavish ceremony in May 2017.
The lovebirds jetted to French Polynesia where they enjoyed a plush honeymoon, which was followed by a getaway in Sweden.
Last month, Pippa caused a stir when she suggested her avocado tortilla recipe was a good breakfast for disadvantaged children.
The socialite has been working with charity Magic Breakfast, which aims to help struggling parents give their children a good start to the day.
But online readers said the recipe, which requires olive oil and fresh avocados, was too expensive and out of touch with families on the poverty line.
Pippa was also mocked for using the interview to 'brag' about her most memorable early morning meal.
The columnist told the i newspaper that her best breakfast was enjoyed sitting high up in the mountains at a luxury French ski resort.
Recalling the memory, she told the publication: 'Up a mountain in the Trois Vallรฉes ski region of France, with beautiful views, snow all around and crisp, fresh air to heighten the senses.'
She also shared what she used to dine on for breakfast with her sister Kate when they were children.

Pippa added: 'Almost everything, but lots of porridge or boiled eggs with soldiers.'
