10 most beautiful photographs of radiant new royal mums with their newborns

Princess Beatrice is the latest member of the royal family to become a mother, having welcomed her daughter, Sienna, into the world six months ago - although we're yet to see a photo of the regal newborn.

A new mother always has that beautiful radiant glow as she cradles her bundle of joy, and over the years some of these special mother-baby moments within the royal family have been captured on camera.

From the Duchess of Cambridge holding her babies on the steps of the Lindo Wing of London's St Mary's hospital, to Princess Diana with baby Prince William at Kensington Palace, we've seen some adorable photographs over the years.

In the photo above, the wife of Prince William looked so happy as she held her newborn son, Prince George, outside the Lindo Wing of St Mary's Hospital back in July 2013. Dressed in a blue and white spotted dress and her hair perfectly styled, it's one of our favourite pictures of Duchess Kate.

Take a look at more beautiful royal mother and baby moments below…

We love this picture of Prince Harry's wife, Meghan. The royal, who is now a mum-of-two, held her eldest child Archie close during the couple's royal tour of South Africa in September 2019. Meghan looked stunning and Archie a real royal cutie.

Zara Tindall

The Queen's granddaughter looked such a content, relaxed mother in this picture, taken in May 2014 in Newport, Wales.

Princess Eugenie

Aw, the look of love! Prince Andrew's daughter Princess Eugenie shared this photograph of herself, baby August and her husband Jack Brooksbank on her Instagram page in March 2021, following her birthday.

Eugenie wrote: "Thank you for the birthday love yesterday... I got the best present I could ask for!!"

The Queen

What a beautiful photo of Her Majesty the Queen.

The date was 21 October 1950 and a then Princess Elizabeth held her baby girl, Princess Anne, who was dressed in the royal christening robe.

Princess Diana

Such a fun snap! A newly-married Princess Diana holds her firstborn, Prince William, aloft as the mother and son share a giggle at home in Kensington Palace.

Diana looked beautiful in this next picture holding her second baby, Prince Harry. The image was taken outside St Mary's Hospital in September 1984.

Princess Margaret

Here we see a stunning black and white picture of the late Princess Margaret, the Queen's sister, with her baby boy, David.

The photo was taken by the baby's father, the Earl of Snowdon, who worked as a photographer before he married Margaret.
