Princess Beatrice, who is 36 years old and the Princess of York, has welcomed her second daughter, as announced by Buckingham Palace. She and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, celebrated the birth of their new baby last week. The royal family’s Instagram account shared the happy news on Wednesday, featuring the first picture of the baby taken by Edo.
They have named their daughter Athena Elizabeth. This means she is now 11th in line for the throne, pushing her Aunt Eugenie down to 12th place. Athena is the third child in the Mapelli Mozzi family. She joins her older siblings: Wolfie, who is 8 years old from Edo’s first marriage, and Sienna, who is 3 years old.
The palace shared a sweet post, saying, “Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr. Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are happy to announce the safe arrival of their daughter, Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi, born on Wednesday, January 22nd, at 12:57 PM.” The little girl weighed 4 pounds and 5 ounces at birth.
The statement also said that King Charles, Queen Camilla, and other members of the Royal Family are thrilled with the news. Princess Beatrice and Edo thanked the hospital staff for their wonderful care. The message concluded by saying that both Princess Beatrice and her daughter are healthy and happy, and the family is enjoying time together with Wolfie and Sienna.
