Another royal wedding is on the way: The Duchess of Cambridge's younger brother, James Middleton, is engaged to girlfriend Alizee Thevenet! On Oct. 6, a day after James' private proposal made headlines, he confirmed the happy news on Instagram with a photo of Alizee showing off her sapphire ring. "She said OUI," he wrote. "Our secret is out but we couldn't be happier to share the news." The 32-year-old businessman [3] and 29-year-old French financial analyst reportedly met at a bar [4] during the Summer of 2018 and have been dating for a little over a year. In January, they even vacationed with Pippa Middleton [5] and her husband, James Matthews, in St. Barts.
Although the newly engaged couple keep their romance under wraps, James made their relationship Instagram official [6] in May, sharing a snap of them relaxing on a boat in matching sweaters. Later that month, they attended Lady Gabriella Windsor's wedding [7] together. In July, Alizee joined James and his family at Wimbledon. Congrats to the happy couple!
