It's only been a few days since Princess Beatrice gave birth to a little girl, and it looks like she's already taking after her mom!
According to a friend of Sarah Ferguson's, the infant has "got a hint of red ... and a hint of gold" hair, they told the Daily Mail.
"She's perfect, and Sarah is absolutely smitten. She's always very proud of both girls but to have two grandchildren in a year is a total joy," the pal added.
On Monday, September 20, the 33-year-old and her hubby, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, announced the exciting news.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are delighted to announce the safe arrival of their daughter on Saturday 18th September 2021, at 23.42, at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, London," the palace shared. "The baby weighs 6 pounds and 2 ounces. 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. 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 statement continued.
As for what the couple will name their tot, it sounds like they may want to honor Ferguson.
"Sarah is the early 8/1 favorite, a nod to her mother Sarah the Duchess of York," Sam Rosbottom, who is a Betfair spokesperson, said. "We are tipping the happy couple to have an Italian flavor with their choice of name, with Edoardo's father hailing from Bergamo. The likes of Anna at 10/1 second favorite, Maria at 12/1 and Rosa at 14/1 suggest they could break from traditional British names usually favored by the royal family."
Before Beatrice's new arrival, the red-headed beauty gushed over her grandkids.
"Being 61 makes me a young grandma, and I love it. I smile from my heart every day, because that is how it feels to be a granny," she told Good Housekeeping. "I have so many fun ideas of things to do with my grandchildren, and of course they’re a perfect new audience for all my children’s books."
