The recent birth of James Middleton and Alizée Thevenet’s first child has brought joy to their families, including James’ sister, Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales. The couple, who married in 2021, were seen in London pushing a pram, marking their first public appearance as new parents. The child’s gender has not been disclosed yet. This new addition makes Kate an aunt again, adding to the family joy alongside her own three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis.

James had announced the pregnancy earlier this year, expressing hope for a brighter future after the difficult start to 2023 due to the loss of his beloved dog, Ella. Now, with their baby, the couple looks forward to ending the year on a happy note. This marks the seventh grandchild for Carole and Michael Middleton, with Kate’s sister Pippa and her husband James Matthews also contributing three grandchildren.

Kate is particularly excited about the new arrival, as she is known for being a devoted aunt. The new baby will likely be a central figure in the family’s upcoming festive gatherings. The Middleton and Cambridge families often spend holidays together, balancing between royal duties and family time. This joyous occasion strengthens the bond within the family, making the forthcoming season all the more special for them.
