Younger sister to the Duchess of Cambridge, Middleton celebrated her 30th birthday on Friday. But with little said about how the younger Middleton plans to celebrate, more emphasis has been put on rumors that Middleton is secretly engaged.

A source revealed to London's People magazine recently that Middleton had become engaged to stockbroker Nico Jackson.

"Pippa loved seeing Kate go down the aisle and now it is her turn for a fairytale wedding. She couldn't be more sure that Nico is the right man for her. They are such a good fit for each other and their families get on really well. Everyone is so happy for Pippa," a source told the newspaper.

A formal announcement of her engagement was supposed to occur Friday to help celebrate the special date. Middleton's name also surfaced earlier this week after she admitted during a recent interview that she had a school girl crush on her former hockey coach, Richard Markham.

"Boys are watching. I can also hear the booming voice of Mr Markham, our fierce but undeniably fanciable coach, urging us all on," she said.

Writing for Spectator, Pippa sais of her time at Marlborough College in Wiltshire: "When I close my eyes and think about school sports, I envisage myself on the hockey pitch, stick in hand, a luminous gumshield locked on to my chops and a bandana across my forehead. (Bandanas were all the rage back then)."

Continuing the description of her "undeniably fanciable" coach she added: "I would not say he was 'fierce' but he does have what I would call a traditional school teacher look – he can look at you in a way that gets your attention."

The timing of the article however, which was published earlier this week, may not be great for Markham, who just started a new job as head of a boarding school in Hertfordshire, according to the Telegraph.

Other sources have denied that Middleton is engaged.
