Before the couple made the news of their engagement public, the story had leaked among their close friends. James and Alizee met for the first time at a London bar and dated for ten months before getting engaged.

The two were first sighted as a couple back in December 2018 while attending the Henry Van Sbenzee Memorial Funds Christmas Carol Service at the St. Luke's church in London.

In January, Alizee joined her fiancé, and his sister, Pippa Middleton, and her husband, James Matthews, for a vacation in St. Barth's, and in May, she attended Wimbledon alongside her man and his family.

The bride-to-be is a London based financial analyst of French origin. She obtained her Masters in Investment and Finance from the Queen Mary University of London. As a child, Alizee lived in several countries, including Indonesia, Germany, Chile, France, Belgium, and England.

In addition to her native French, the London resident speaks Spanish and English. James' relationship with Alizee was kept away from the press for a long time, and now that everything's out in the open, they can't wait to start the next phase of their lives together.
