This week, the duchess’s brother, James, revealed that his sisters, Princess Catherine (42) and Pippa (41), have been supportive ever since he welcomed his first son, Inigo. The entrepreneur admitted that both of his sisters have passed down baby clothes that hold special memories because their kids wore them, too.
“They are milestones, because [my sisters] remember when their child was wearing something, and how old they were—it takes them back,” James told Hello! magazine. “It’s been a lovely thing for them.”
James also shared rare details about Inigo’s relationship with his royal cousins. “He’s fortunate to have older cousins who can now pick him up and show him things, and as he grows up, they’ll be able to look out for him,” he added. “There’s definitely an element of curiosity [about] a baby that they have.”
As for his relationship with his sisters, James confirmed that they’ve grown closer through parenthood. “It's been wonderful, seeing them become mothers and being so dedicated and strong. I’m in awe of that. I've been fortunate to see how my sisters have done it, and take tips along the way.”
He jokingly added, “Some I take on board, and others I’m like: ‘Hmm.’”
He’s learning from the best.
