Everyone has been talking about Pippa Middleton's wedding ever since she announced her engagement to James Matthews last year. There have been apps calculating the eye-watering sum that her big day is set to cost, a lot of speculation over whether or not Prince Harry's girlfriend, Meghan Markle, has made the guest list, and if Pippa will be happy about the fact that these uninvited guests are allowed to turn up without her permission.
But there's one uninvited guest in particular that's wreaking havoc just one day before she plans to walk down the aisle, and it could mean that she's forced to cancel her big day.
According to sources, a ferocious 'puma' could be on the loose in the countryside near where Pippa is set to marry.
Villagers claim the large cat, allegedly 5ft long and weighing around 200lbs, is roaming around woodland in Bradfield, Berkshire – just two miles away from St Mark's Church, where Pippa and James will say their vows.
One local, Derek Collier, who lives in the next village, spoke to Mirror Online about his experience with the 'puma' while he was driving down a country lane.

'It was stood about 20 yards in front of me and right in my headlights and it took up about two thirds of the road,' he claims.
'It was there for about ten seconds then it disappeared up the bank and into the bushes. It was a bit of a shock to say the least... It must have been five feet long from head to tail.'
Many others claim to have spotted the beast over the years, with stories of villagers hearing strange noises and feeling as though they were being watched or followed 'by something that was big and black' - leading some to believe it to be a puma, with others sure it's a panther.
Whatever the creature is, we hope it doesn't ruin Pippa's big day.
