Pippa Middleton has been voted Auntie of the Year.
The 30-year-old beauty, whose nephew is third-in-line to the British throne, Prince George, has topped a survey to find the best auntie, beating the likes of Kim Kardashian, Victoria Beckham and Beyonce.
Pippa earned 25 per cent of the vote as pollsters felt she would be able to help the little prince stay grounded as he grows older.
One respondent said: "I think Pippa makes a really fun auntie and I'm sure she'd be able to offer some solid advice to George when he grows up, as there is a lot of pressure that comes with being the future king."
520 people took part in the survey, commissioned by Wrappler, which also praised Kim, 33, for being a great aunt to her sister Kourtney's children, Mason and Penelope. The glamorous reality TV star came in second place in the poll with 20 per cent of the vote.
Fellow Kardashian, Khloe, ranked in eighth place for her devotion to Mason, Penelope and Kim's 13-month-old daughter North West.
Victoria Beckham - who has four children of her own - came in third place and was hailed as a cool, fashionable aunt to sister Louise Adams' daughter.
A Wrappler spokesperson said: "I bet even Prince George gets bored of being a little prince every once in a while, and so I'm sure that having an un-royal auntie will be a great blessing when he grows up.
"As for the others, Kim Kardashian has been showing off her maternal side ever since North West was born, and I'm sure she'd make a great auntie to her sister Kourtney's two children."
Pop stars Rihanna, Cheryl Cole and Kylie Minogue also made the list.

Britain's Prince Harry has reportedly been in contact with Caroline Flack.
The 29-year-old royal was rumoured to have been dating the former 'Xtra Factor' presenter in 2009 and it's now been revealed that he's been getting back in touch with her.
A source told the Mail on Sunday newspaper: "They have been in contact by phone. Harry likes to keep in touch with his old girlfriends and he knows Caroline is fun and discreet.
"In fact, someone mentioned his name the other day and Caroline got flustered and went bright red."
Harry - who split from his girlfriend of two years Cressida Bonas earlier this year - is said to have dated Caroline, 34, after he broke up with long-term love Chelsea Davy, but although they're back in touch it's only as friends as Caroline is currently dating music manager Jack Street.
Meanwhile, Harry recently posed for his first selfie with his brother Prince William and entrepreneur Jamal Edwards.
The young royals posed for the snap after launching a new awards scheme, the Queen's Young Leaders, for young people in the Commonwealth.

Britain's Duke and Duchess of Cambridge want to create a no-fly zone over their new home.
The royal couple - who have 12-month-old son Prince George together - have complained to the Civil Aviation Authority to make the area over Anmer Hall in Norfolk, in the East of England a no-fly zone to prevent photographers from picturing them and their home.
Prince William and Duchess Catherine have complained after two incidents in the past few weeks, including one in May when they claim images taken by a plane flying below the permitted height of 500ft were published.
According to the Daily Express newspaper a senior royal aide said: "Quite apart from the security implications of the photographs, we are clear that they represent a breach of privacy of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and ask they are not used please."
The photographer and pilot deny flying below the permitted height and the CAA - which is assessing whether the royal estate has provided sufficient evidence to warrant a full investigation - said the rules governing flying over royal residences were the same as everywhere else.
William and Catherine - who spent approximately £1.5 million on refurbishing Anmer Hall - are expected to move into the house later this year when William is scheduled to begin work as an air ambulance pilot in East Anglia.

Britain's Prince Harry is reportedly worried about attending James Blunt's wedding.
The flame-haired royal is on the guest list for the 'You're Beautiful' hitmaker's upcoming nuptials to Sofia Wellesley - who is the granddaughter of the Duke of Wellington - in Ibiza, Spain later this year but he's said to be concerned that attending the celebrations could get him in trouble.
Harry, 29 - who split from his long-term girlfriend Cressida Bonas earlier this year - was at the centre of controversy in 2012 after naked pictures of him at a party in Las Vegas emerged, and he's said to be worried that something similar could happen again.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "Harry is desperate to go because he loves James. Completely wild parties are being arranged.
"But after what happened with Harry and the naked pictures in Las Vegas there is a lot of concern."
James is said to have organised a week-long "reception" of star-studded parties at villas and clubs on the party island of Ibiza - with guests including Elton John, Prince William's good friend Guy Pelly and William and Harry's cousins Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice - and he's reportedly told Harry that he completely understands his predicament and has left him a place for a last-minute decision.

Britain's Prince George cried endlessly on his first night at home.
Prince William and Duchess Catherine, both 32, reportedly had a tough night with their little prince when they first left hospital and retreated to their two-bedroom apartment on the grounds of Kensington Palace.
It's claimed there was no air conditioning in the home and the little tot cried all night, keeping his parents awake in the process.
A source told Vanity Fair magazine: "George was up so much they could barely have a conversation."
Prince George - who turns one on July 22 - is featured on the cover of the iconic magazine's August issue to mark his first birthday. The cover feature was written by journalist Katie Nicholl, who spoke to many close friends of the royal family.
In the article, Nicholl claims Catherine had a difficult first few weeks with George as he suffered from colic.
The article states: "Kate expressed relief that George behaved well during his first few public appearances.
"The first few months the prince cried loudly and frequently, and he was not sleeping through the night."

Princess Anne's royal visit to King's College London yesterday (10.07.14) was called off due to a strike.
The princess royal was expected to open the university's new £37 million Denmark Hill campus in south London, but the event was cancelled due to a strike by teachers and other staff over plans to cut 60 jobs.
A King's College spokesperson said Princess Anne's visit was nixed "following the announcement by the University and College Union, supported by the Students' Union, that they will be joining a national day of strike action on pay and pensions on 10 July 2014".
The university has "decided to postpone the opening" and will reschedule the royal event for a later date.
Just days prior to the opening, Princess Anne, 63, visited Harrogate for the Great Yorkshire Show where she watched the first ever women's sheep-shearing contest.
Competitor Anna Hall told the Wetherby News: "She was lovely, she asked us where we were from and seemed supportive that it's time us girls got time to shine."

Britain's Duchess Catherine is reportedly helping Cressida Bonas get Prince Harry back.
The 25-year-old beauty split from the flame-haired royal two months ago and pals say it's no coincidence she is enjoying newfound fame for her burgeoning acting career since the break-up.
A friend of Cressida's claimed: "Cressida's absolutely everywhere right now, looking like she's having the time of her life.
"She looks stunning and sexy and it's not by accident. It's all part of a plan she's hatched with Kate and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie. They've told her to be very visible so Harry can see what he's missing."
Cressida reportedly became close to Catherine, 32, last year and she has advised the blonde beauty on how to win back Harry, 29, based on her own experiences with his brother, Prince William.
A friend told Now magazine: "Kate had taken Cress under her wing and showed her the royal ropes. They really bonded and Kate was quite upset when she and Harry split as it reminded her of when she separated from William in 2007.
"Back then, when she realised she wanted him back, Kate slipped into her slinkiest outfits, went to William's favourite nightspots, got seen with other guys and did everything she could to make her ex realise what he was missing. Now Cress is using the same tactics."
