The two younger siblings of the Duke and Duchess seem to be getting cozier with each other by the day, with Prince Harry acting as "the shoulder to cry on" after Pippa's break-up.

It has been revealed that the red-haired Prince and the Royal sister have been keeping in touch since the Royal Wedding, stirring up rumors that they are dating. Although it was insisted that the two are "just friends," speculations on whether the Prince was the reason why Alex Loudon and Pippa broke up are increasing by the day.

Reports are brewing that Prince Harry is Pippa's "shoulder to cry on," during her dark times, and onlookers and tabloids are speculating that there is a "deeper" friendship existing between the two.

When Prince Harry mouthed the words "you do look very beautiful today, seriously" to Pippa on the day of the Royal Wedding and after a couple of lunch dates, sources say Harry and Pippa are far from being "just friends".

"Harry and Pippa have always had a close relationship and when he heard about the break-up he told her he'd be a shoulder to cry on if she needed it" says a source to Now Magazine.

It was reported that the "flirting" between the two is the reason behind Pippa's split with her banker ex, Loudon.

"It was said after the wedding that Alex (Loudon) was jealous of Pippa flirting with Prince Harry. But the truth is, she and Harry are just (friends)" claims a source close to the former couple.
