Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi has returned to work after he and Princess Beatrice welcomed their second daughter, Athena Elizabeth Rose.

The newborn royal arrived on January 22 at 12.57pm, weighing four pounds and five ounces.


Edoardo announced the birth of baby Athena in an adorable photo alongside an emotional statement.

The young royal was photographed wrapped in a pink blanket and wearing a white babygrow, with her sleeve carefully protecting her face from view.

She is the latest edition to the family, joining three-year-old sister Sienna and Edoardo's son Wolfie, eight, from his previous relationship with Dara Huang.

Edoardo, who founded Banda Property in 2007, appears to have returned to work as he posted an image of a Swiss hotel designed by his own company on social media.

The concept design was originally posted on his company's page on January 19, three days before the birth of his daughter.

He captioned the post: "Hello @banda.property "

The post to the property developer's personal account comes just two days after he announced the birth of his daughter.

Although the property is located in Switzerland, there is no suggestion that Edoardo has left the UK.

The business owner labelled his location on his last property post, published on January 15, implying the Instagram post was made directly from Switzerland.

This comes as Princess Beatrice was expected to travel to Switzerland but had to cancel her plans due to her early birth.

The Princess of York cancelled her plans to attend the World Economic Forum, where she was due to attend between January 20 and 24 alongside Chancellor Rachel Reeves to participate in a panel discussion about private capital sovereign wealth funds and climate change.

Both Beatrice and her daughter are healthy and doing well, according to the Palace announcement.

The newborn princess is 11th in line to the throne, pushing her aunt Princess Eugenie to 12th place.

The King and Queen, along with other members of the Royal Family, were informed and were delighted with the news.
