Pippa Middleton: Matt Lauer Lands First TV Interview for Duchess' Sister

By    |   Wednesday, 25 June 2014 03:37 PM EDT

Matt Lauer, host of "Today," sat down this week with Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton’s sister, Pippa Middleton, for her first-ever TV interview.

The 30-year-old talked about what it’s like to live under the royal spotlight and her part in a 3,000-mile bike ride across the United States with her brother, James, for Bike Across America.

Lauer flew overnight to London to interview Middleton. In a promotion introducing the interview, he joked about making the trip after Middleton had just left the United States.

“I hate to say it but I was actually in America all of last week,” Middleton said.

“She was riding in a bike event and instead of me being able to interview her there, I had to fly 3,000 miles to interview you here. What’s up with that?” Lauer joked.

He said that during the hourlong interview they talked about the bike event and what it’s like to be Pippa Middleton.

The interview is set to air in two parts on Monday and Tuesday.

Middleton, a party planner and author, first drew attention for the form-fitting white bridesmaid dress she wore at the royal wedding in 2011.

She wrote a party-planning book, “Celebrate,” which sold only 18,000 copies. She was a columnist for The Daily Telegraph for six months and writes for Vanity Fair.

Many on Twitter are looking forward to the interview, while others don't see it as a big deal.
