Remember Donna Air? TV presenter on MTV, The Big Breakfast, TFI Friday and more? Well turns out she's climbing her way to semi-peerage and shacking up with Kate Middleton's brother James (who you may also recall from that nude photo scandal way back when), which you may think is just a little odd seeing as they're both in the public eye but also just enough out of it to keep things on the downlow but alas. Air is also eight years his senior, being all of 33 years old to James' 25, which would have made him 10 when she was on MTV which is all sorts of creepy.
Anyway, the pair were papped leaving a restaurant in London holding hands last night, confirming rumours from the last few weeks that they were getting cosy. Donna was already a mate of Princess Beatrice's (who one would presume introduced the pair) who was on the date with the couple with her mum Fergie, as well as Pippa Middleton and her other half. 'It's still early days but James thinks she's great. They've been out together to a few places - but they always choose discreet restaurants where they are less likely to get spotted.' blabbed someone in the know to the Daily Mail. 'They have been dating for about three months. They enjoy each other's company and are getting to know each other'
A girl from Byker Grove and MTV Select is potentially the in-law of the future Queen of England and an aunt to the soon-to-be third in line to the throne. Now that is just madness. Better work on making yourself the cool Aunt Donna.
