Princess Beatrice, Queen Elizabeth’s granddaughter, has given birth to a baby girl, her first child with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, Buckingham Palace has announced.
The baby, who weighed 6 pounds and 2 ounces (2.78 kg), was born at London’s Chelsea and Westminster Hospital on Saturday evening.
Beatrice, the tenth-in-line to the throne and the eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York, married property developer Mr Mapelli Mozzi in July 2020.
“The new baby’s grandparents and great-grandparents have all been informed and are delighted with the news. The family would like to thank all the staff at the hospital for their wonderful care,” the statement said.
Beatrice, 33, is also stepmother to Mr Mapelli Mozzi’s young son Wolfie, from his previous relationship with ex-fiancee Dara Huang.
“Her Royal Highness and her child are both doing well and the couple are looking forward to introducing their daughter to her big brother Christopher Woolf.”
The baby is the 12th great-grandchild for Britain’s 95-year-old monarch.
The birth is good news for Beatrice’s family, coming on the back of a slew of negative headlines that have followed a US sex assault lawsuit against her father Prince Andrew, the Queen’s second son.
