The British are coming! Prince William and Princess Kate Middleton are coming to the States and it's causing quiet the frenzy among American television networks. The royals will be making their visit stateside in December but a few talkshows are at war with each other over who will get the coveted interview with them. Will it be Good Morning America or the TODAY Show?

According to RadarOnline, it seems that both of the morning shows are trying to get the interview with Kate, as they have booked both her brother and sister on their respective programs.

Pippa Middleton is reportedly in talks with the Today Show for a correspondent job, whereas James Middleton, Kate's brother, was recently interviewed by Good Morning America.

The site is reporting that while "the job hasn't formally been offered to her yet," that Pippa was flown out to Wyoming over the weekend to do a test shoot for the series.

"Pippa went on a test shoot last weekend in Wyoming. No decision has been made about whether or not an offer will even be extended because it's just to early in the talks to make that assumption," a source told Radar.

What could have started the ball rolling for the correspondent position was that Pippa sat down with Matt Lauer earlier this year for an interview and it brought in very good ratings for the talk show.

As for James, according to ABC News, he was featured on Good Morning America to promote his new marshmallow company called Boomf, which he created with his business partner Andy Bell.

"We thought we'd just add the fun throughout the company so the staff in production are 'Boomfaloopas,'" James explained. "We obviously take a lot of sort of magic from Willy Wonka."

As for which show William and Kate will pick when they come to the States, that is still waiting to be decided.
