Princess Beatrice, the eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York, has welcomed her second child with Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.

Athena’s arrival will place Beatrice’s younger sister, Princess Eugenie, back one place to 12th in line. Eugenie’s children, August (born in February 2021) and Ernest (born in May 2023) will be pushed back to 13th and 14th place respectively.

"Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi," the property developer wrote on social media, posting the same photo that the palace shared. The shot showed the newborn raising a hand to her face while dressed in a white outfit, snuggled up in a pink blanket as someone held her.
