8 Mar
Summary
- The couple runs together weekly to resolve disagreements.
- Their first date involved a countryside run with dogs.
- Their son is being raised bilingual in English and French.

James Middleton has shared a unique ritual that strengthens his marriage and helps settle disagreements with his wife, Alizée Thévenet. The couple maintains a tradition of running together at least once a week, often in matching trainers, a practice that began on one of their initial dates.
This shared activity serves as a vital way for them to reconnect and resolve any arguments, typically setting things straight by the time they finish their run. Middleton, who resides in Berkshire with his wife, their young son Inigo, and their dogs, first met Thévenet in 2018.
The couple married in September 2021, with their wedding attended by members of the Royal family, including his sisters Kate and Pippa Middleton, and Prince William. They welcomed their son, Inigo Gabriel Middleton, in September 2023. Middleton also revealed that their son is being raised to be bilingual, with Alizée speaking only French to him and James speaking only English.
