Pippa Middleton's romantic relationships haven't always seen smooth sailing, but there's one role in her personal life in which the 31-year-old seems to excel.

It looks like Pippa is one stellar aunt, an asset to both her elder sister, Princess Kate, and her one-year-old nephew, Prince George. The savvy business woman and accomplished writer sure knows how to please everyone when it comes to giving gifts.

According to The Telegraph, last year Pippa commissioned sculptors Wrighton & Platt to fashion a set of silver hands and feet cast from little George himself.

While the expensive silver set was sure to please Prince William and Princess Kate, Pippa also knows how to keep things simple and sweet for her dear George.

On Dec. 31 the Daily Mail reported that the second Middleton sister purchased a small, plush police car toy for George from Chelsea Toys in London. The Christmas gift was said to have pleased the little prince immensely. Coming in at under $20, the car provided the boy with a quick and easy gift to unwrap and play with during his family's busy Christmas celebration.

"He's amazing, a very dear boy," declared Pippa of her darling nephew. "he has brought a lot of pleasure and fun for all of us, the whole family."

Pippa's responsibilities as an aunt will continue to grow this year as Kate is expected to give birth to her second child in April.
