Creditors accuse the Middleton couple of treason and do not believe they will return their money.
According to the Daily Mail, the Princess of Wales’ parents, Michael and Carole Middleton, are facing serious financial difficulties as their company, Party Pieces Holdings, went bankrupt and angry creditors said the couple owed them nearly £2.6m.
The party supplies company was founded by the Middletons in 1987 and within a few years became so successful that the revenue allowed the couple to send their daughters Kate, Pippa and son James to private Marlborough College, which costs around £42,930 a year. He spent £4.7m on a luxury mansion in London.
According to MailOnline, the firm was acquired by businessman James Sinclair, who runs Partyman, a company that operates soft play areas and organizes events for children.
At least one investor in Party Pieces Holdings said the company “betrayed” them as concerns arose about how much debt the company owed.
The £2.6m debt includes £218,749 to RBS to cover a Coronavirus Business Interrupt loan, £1.4m for unsecured loans and £456,008 to other creditors. At the same time, not all creditors no longer hide their disappointment about the possibility of returning their money.
Lord Iliffe is one of those who claimed the Middletons owed him £57,480. Its representative, James Hole, said the property was facing “serious financial consequences” due to unpaid money.
“They were long-term tenants. We were surprised by the amount of money we owe others,” Hole said.
Another creditor, who did not want to be named, said his company had entered lengthy negotiations with Party Pieces but were unsuccessful.
“The amount they owe to HMRC (HM Revenue and Customs) eclipses everything else they owe. That’s why we left – because they owe the public,” said insiders.
Management owed Michael and Carroll £613,000. Unless they pay this amount, other creditors have nothing to look forward to.
Another company that has been disappointed with Party Pieces is Sultani Gas, a company based in Tonbridge, Kent, that supplies helium balloons.
According to a business spokesperson, she “trusted” Carol “because she was the next king’s mother-in-law” and she betrayed me.
“This is absolutely unacceptable,” the source said.
The Middletons themselves explain that the coronavirus pandemic led to bankruptcy and a sharp increase in the cost of living in the country when all parties were banned. Their income has dropped drastically as a result of the quarantine and the cost of living crisis. For example, Party Pieces’ revenue fell from £4.5m to £3.2m between 2021 and 2022 during the pandemic.
With financial problems escalating, Party Pieces reached 175 potential buyers and eventually negotiated a £180,000 deal.
12 Party Pieces employees will move into the new Teddy Tastic Bear company.
