Lady Kitty Spencer has had an action-packed few months. The daughter of Earl Spencer has enjoyed sun-drenched holidays alongside appearances at Milan Fashion Week.

At the weekend, Princess Diana's niece shared a beautiful picture of her three-year-old daughter, Athena, on her travels, wearing the sweetest white dress emblazoned with a pretty cherry print - a huge summer trend for 2026.

The frock featured the most adorable bow at the back, and Kitty's daughter added the cutest little sandals.

All about Athena - Lady Kitty's daughter

Kitty and her husband Michael Lewis, a billionaire fashion tycoon, married in 2021. The pair later went on to have a baby - their daughter, Athena.

Prince William's cousin kept the birth of her child quiet until much later, announcing the news on Instagram. Earl Spencer's daughter confirmed that she had become a mother in a post shared on social media in 2024. Alongside a heartwarming beach clip of her child, she penned: "It's the joy of my life to be your mummy, little one. I love you unconditionally. Happy Mother's Day to those who celebrate today."

Kitty admitted to Tatler that she does "a lot less" now that she has her little girl: "I'm much more selective because it’s not really free time anymore," she said. "I've got to really want to do something. I'm happy with the balance."

Lady Kitty exclusively shares photos of Athena that shield her face, but from what she has shared online, it seems her daughter is her mini-me - she has the same blonde hair and stylish image.

Little Athena is very close to her family and has the most incredible bond with her aunts, Amelia and her twin sister Lady Eliza, something her proud mum Kitty has previously spoken of.

The Dolce & Gabbana ambassador also told the publication: "Athena is very outdoorsy and like a spinning top. She certainly has two doting, laughing aunts, who say they are 'steering her in our direction'."
