The so-called "dog dad" has a deep affection for dogs and shares his pack of pups, Ella, Luna, Inca, Zulu, Nala, and Mabel with his wife Alizée Thevenet.
In a bid to transform the lives of dog owners, entrepreneurial James set up his own company focused on creating healthy food for dogs. His brand, Ella & Co describes itself as a "happiness and wellbeing company for dogs," built by a team of industry experts and nutritionists.
James and Alizée own six dogs between them
James and Alizée met by chance in South Kensington in 2018, and previously shared a house in London before ditching the city in favour of the Berkshire countryside.
Shortly ahead of their move, James wrote in The Telegraph: "We are country people and love going out for long walks, but one of the key reasons we wanted to live in the countryside was our six dogs."
