leading to instagramThe 36-year-old father, who announced the birth of his firstborn in October 2023, posted a clip from his recent ski vacation.
In the video you could see the founder of Ella & Co walking through the snow while baby Iñigo was dragged in a specially equipped stroller.
Their dogs Mabel and Isla were captured jumping alongside their owners, while Alizee was seen cleverly traveling on her skis as the family took in the stunning views of the mountains.
In his post, James did not mention his sister, Kate, 42, who underwent “successful” planned abdominal surgery more than three weeks ago. The Daily Mail’s Richard Eden reported last week that the mother of three “is doing better.”
The Princess of Wales’s brother James Middleton has shared a glimpse of his “first adventure” with his wife Alizee Thevenet, their son Inigo and two of their dogs.
“Our first adventure with Inigo and the dogs,” James wrote in his caption. ‘Ever since Alizee was pregnant I’ve been waiting for the day we could go on our first dog adventure together.
‘Safely strapped to his Silver Cross stroller with a frame specially adapted to fit on an expedition sled, we embarked on an alpine adventure with Mabel and Isla.
‘Many of you have asked about taking dogs on holiday and I couldn’t recommend it more.
“But it requires careful planning, so I wrote a blog about traveling to Europe with dogs, if you’re interested.” The link is in my bio and please share your adventures with me,’ she concluded.
Late last year, James teased a book release in 2024 while sharing photos of his family to celebrate the New Year.
Posting a photograph of his wife and dogs, the Princess of Wales’ brother captioned the Instagram post saying he had “put pen to paper”.
‘As it’s been such a reflective year, I’ve been putting pen to paper, which has been the most wonderful experience… so maybe a (book emoji) next year?’ he wrote.
James also spoke about the birth of Inigo and shared a photo of him with two of the couple’s dogs.
But there was also a tinge of sadness hanging over the festive season after the death of James’ beloved spaniel Ella in January 2023.
On Instagram, the 36-year-old father of one, who announced the birth of his firstborn in October 2023, posted a clip from his recent ski vacation.
Their dogs Mabel and Isla were captured jumping alongside their owners, while Alizee was seen moving expertly on her skis as the family took in the stunning mountain views.
Late last year, James teased a book release in 2024 while sharing photos of his family to celebrate the New Year.
“The year began with the unbearable sadness of losing Ella,” James wrote. ‘Despite knowing that her time was coming, it has taken me a while to accept that she is no longer by my side.
‘I know many of you who have also lost a dog will understand the pain that follows.’
He went on to say that later in 2023, he and Alizee had the “absolute pleasure” of welcoming Inigo.
And he added: “Íñigo has already found his place among the pack and laughs every time one of the dogs comes and snuggles up next to us.”
Closing out his New Year’s post, James added: “I’m moving on to 2024 and I promise to continue focusing on my mission… to make every dog’s life as happy and healthy as mine.”
‘Happy New Year to all. With love, James, Alizee, Iñigo, Zulu, Mabel, Inka, Luna, Nala and Isla.’
It comes after the Daily Mail’s Richard Eden revealed that the Princess of Wales, who underwent “successful” planned abdominal surgery more than three weeks ago, is recovering.
In a clear sign of her improvement, she was able to accompany her husband, Prince William, and their three children as they left for a half-term holiday at the Sandringham estate in Norfolk, where the king is also convalescing.
“Catherine is recovering well,” a friend said. “She was looking forward to a change of scenery and she’ll be able to take it easy in Norfolk while the kids blow off some steam with William.”

The Princess, 42, was discharged 12 days ago from the London Clinic, where she had spent almost two weeks.
In the only statement from Kensington Palace on his health, a spokesperson said on January 17 that, “based on current medical advice, he is unlikely to return to public duties until after Easter.”
The spokesperson did not provide details about the nature of his surgery, but sources reported that it was not for cancer.
Since leaving hospital, without being photographed, Catherine has been at Adelaide Cottage, the family’s four-bedroom home in Windsor Home Park.
Their children, Prince George, ten, Princess Charlotte, eight, and Prince Louis, five, attend Lambrook School, a 15-minute drive away, in Berkshire. They separated on Friday to spend a week on vacation.
