This is my last semester of teaching before I... before my daughter takes over Gardania. No, no. Hold back your tears. Miss Privet will take over my classes next year. In her own little way. Of course no one knows the royal life as I do. I've lived at the palace ever since my dear sister-in-law Queen Isabella and her family died.
~ Dame Devin.
You useless child! Do you have any idea what you've done? I eliminated Queen Isabella so you could be princess one day!
~ Dame Devin revealed her true nature to her daughter, Delancy, when she learned to kill the royal family.
No! You can't do this to me! Get your hands off me! You have to crown Delancy! You have to! You'll pay for this!
~ Dame Devin's last words as she was being arrested.

Biography[]

When she was young, Dame Devin, having times to attend the Princess Charm School, was a commoner who wished to be lady royal, hoping to make victory in the lottery raffle. In her early years, Dame Devin managed to kill her sister-in-law, Queen Isabella, for not choosing her to be her lady royal. Upon successfully killing the royal family, not knowing that the baby Princess Sophia had survived, Dame Devin moved into the palace together with her daughter, Delancy Devin. She then begins to plot her scheme to have her daughter crowned as ruler of Gardania.

Many years later, Dame Devin and the headmistress, Alexandra Privet, started to enroll all the princesses of the other kingdoms, including Dame Devin's niece Blair, so that they could earn a scholarship and the title of Lady Royal. During class, Dame Devin began teaching all the students, having them learn to walk around with a stack of books on their heads. However, when Blair tried to do so, and as a result of her clumsiness, she accidentally knocked most of the students down like dominoes, which resulted in her being scolded by her aunt. However when Dame Devin saw Blair's face, she was left in shock, since she recognized her as Princess Sophia ,Queen Isabella's daughter, but was snapped back to her senses by Delancy and she immediately declares Blair that she is unfit for royal life and kicks her out of her class.

Since she now recognized Blair as the true heir to the throne of Gardania, Dame Devin harbored a strong dislike of her and attempted to sabotage her at any chance she gets. At lunch, while Blair and her friends are busy eating, Delancy makes her fairy assistant, Wickellia, tuck a tablecloth into Blair's skirt, which caused the latter to accidentally pull the table cloth which causing her to be laugh at by the students and Dame Devin, who noticed the incident was amused and she chuckled in amusement as she watched Blair leave in embarrassment. Much later during dance class with the students of Prince Charming Academy, Dame Devin makes Blair sit out, but the latter was still able to participate with Prince Nicholas being her dance partner.

Dame Devin later ordered Wickellia to tear off the uniforms of Blair and her friends so that they could not join in class, however, they and their fairies assistants were able to make new uniforms of their own. Later that day, Dame Devin pretended to be worried that they might miss class and when she thought that their gonna fail she attempted to close the doors but was stopped by Blair. Dame Devin was shocked upon seeing the trio wearing their new uniforms and she tried to protest that it is against the rules, but Headmistress Privet revealed that there is nothing in the dress code that is against wearing those kinds of uniforms.

Later during a meeting, Dame Devin reveals that Delancy will have the poorer neighborhoods removed and be replaced with beautiful parks, much to Blair's dismay. When she tried to protest it, her aunt would just make up excuses and eventually she was able to win over her, which caused Blair to wanting to quit. After Blair left, the headmistress criticizes their plans, calling it disgraceful.

On the night before the coronation ceremony, Dame Devin puts her jewelry in Blair's dorm room, causing Blair and her friends to be falsely accused of theft. Though the trio protested that they didn't steal anything, Brock, Dame Devin's guard, found her jewelry and as a result ,on Dame Devin's orders, they were detained. However, unbeknownst to her, Delancy helped them in escaping, since she, like her mother, discovered Blair's true identity. The next day, during the coronation ceremony, As Blair and her friends retrieved the legendary Gardania crown, Dame Devin and Brock caught them and they took the crown from them. Dame Devin then trapped the trio in the palace vault as well as changing the passcode to the vault door, which prevented the girls from joining the ceremony. During the coronation, she happily watches as her daughter is about to be crowned princess, however to her confusion, Delancy began to stall her coronation by making all the princesses do a series of protocols. In truth, she is buying enough time for Blair and her friends to escape from the vault.

Dame Devin eventually grew impatient and made the royal judge crown her daughter immediately. But before he could do so, the coronation is once again disrupted, this time by Blair. Dame Devin was infuriated upon seeing that Blair and her friends had escaped the palace vault. When Blair clears out her name as Princess Sophia, her aunt dismissed it as ridiculous and lied to the royal judge that the princess had died seventeen years ago. She then ordered him to immediately crown Delancy but he refused and stated that Blair's claim is a serious affirm. Now losing all of her patience, she attempted to take the crown by force and crown her daughter herself. A fight for the crown then ensued which ended with Brock managing to get the crown through a clever tactic.

Believing herself victorious, Dame Devin brushed off her niece and went to get the crown from her guard. Before she could reclaim it, however, Prince, the royal dog, barged in and pounced on Brock which sent them the crown flying into Delancy's hand. Dame Devin then silently urged her daughter to crown herself. However, to her dismay, Delancy instead crowned Blair and Dame Devin watched in shock and horror as Blair, through the Gardania crown, is magically revealed as Princess Sophia.

Furious at her daughter for this turn of events, Dame Devin berated Delancy for destroying their future and inadvertently exposes herself as the one responsible for the death of Queen Isabella. When she saw that everyone (both in the chapel and watching the event on TV) had heard everything, she tried to explain everything otherwise but the royal judge, enraged by her actions against the royal family, ordered the guards to have her imprisoned. As she was being dragged out of the chapel, she screams in protest that Delancy had to be crowned and she eventually swore revenge.
