Alizee Thevenet hailed as future ‘secret weapon’ as family earns praise for strength and unity
Princess Catherine’s family has received heartening recognition following their steadfast support during her cancer battle, with royal experts highlighting the strength and promise shown by her inner circle—particularly her sister-in-law, Alizee Thevenet.
Alizee, who is married to Catherine’s brother James Middleton, recently appeared alongside Carole Middleton at Royal Ascot 2025. Their warm presence at the event caught the attention of royal commentator and celebrity psychologist Dr. Arthur Cassidy, who praised their connection and composure.
Speaking to Hello! Magazine, Dr. Cassidy noted that Alizee exhibited “a natural warmth of expression” and “emotional strength,” suggesting she could become a key figure in Catherine’s future as Queen.
He described Alizee as someone who could quietly mirror the stabilising influence of Duchess Sophie, often called King Charles’ "secret weapon." With her poised body language and gentle rapport with her mother-in-law, Alizee is now seen as a potential source of “hope and optimism” within the extended royal fold.
The encouraging remarks come after the Middletons were widely credited for supporting Prince William behind the scenes during Catherine’s treatment, offering him comfort and stability through a deeply challenging chapter.
As Princess Catherine gradually returns to public life, it’s clear her family remains a vital pillar—one that continues to earn quiet admiration within royal circles.
