Rewind to January this year when Princess Beatrice’s husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi shared the happy news on Instagram: He and his wife Bea had officially welcomed their daughter Athena Elizabeth Rose to the world earlier that month.

The young royal's birth was announced one week after her arrival, with Athena joining the couple's older daughter, three-year-old Sienna and Edoardo's son, eight-year-old Wolfie. Beatrice, 36, has now shared the story of Athena's premature birth with British Vogue Magazine - with Edoardo taking to social media to share his pride.

Becoming a mom of two wasn’t easy for Princess Beatrice. The Princess of York, 36, wrote an essay for British Vogue on Sunday where she opened up about her daughter Athena’s preterm birth in January.
