She announced her pregnancy in May and now, Princess Beatrice of York has made her first public appearance since sharing the exciting news.
The 32-year-old was joined by her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi on day ten of the Wimbledon Championships Tennis Tournament in London on Thursday.
All eyes were on the royal mother to-be and her growing bump, which she dressed in a stunning polka-dot dress by Self Portrait and featured a fish-tail hemline, puff sleeves and a belted in waist, which perfectly highlighted her growing belly.
She accessorised her look with a beach-inspired basket bag and a red face mask.
Meanwhile Beatrice’s husband Edo cut a dapper figure in a navy suit.

Princess Beatrice’s pregnancy news was shared via an official statement from the Palace in May, which read: “Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are very pleased to announce that they are expecting a baby in autumn of this year.”
“The Queen has been informed and both families are delighted with the news.”
The pregnant royal stepped out in a polka-dot maternity dress by Self Portrait.

The royal has previously spoken about becoming a parent-figure to Wolfie, telling the Evening Standard: “This year, I had the great honour to become a stepmother, and have had the most remarkable time going back over some of my most favourite stories at bedtime.”
The stylish frock featured oversized puff sleeves and a cinched waist.

Like their cousin August, Beatrice’s child will not carry an official royal title because they are passed down through the male line of the royal family.
That means Beatrice, who bears the title of HRH (Her Royal Highness), will be unable to pass her title onto this baby or any other children she has.
This will be Beatrcie’s first child and Edo’s second.
