Just six weeks after welcoming her third child, Beatrice Borromeo returned to the public eye to celebrate Monaco's National Day. The mom of three looked characteristically chic on November 19 dressed in a grey long-sleeve belted dress with a brooch. Beatrice, 40, completed her outfit with black gloves and a black hair accessory atop an elegant bun.
The King Who Never Was director, her husband Pierre Casiraghi and their two sons, Stefano and Francesco, all joined Prince Albert, Princess Charlene and other members of the Monégasque royal family on Monaco's National Day. Pierre coordinated with his wife, wearing a grey suit, while their sons twinned in matching navy jackets, sweaters, shirts and ties.
The outing marked Beatrice's first official appearance since giving birth to her daughter. The baby, named Bianca Caroline Marta, was born on October 4. Her name Caroline is seemingly a tribute to Pierre's mother, Princess Caroline. Beatrice and Grace Kelly's grandson, who have been married since 2015, became first-time parents in 2017 with birth of their son Stefano. Their family grew again in 2018 with the arrival of Francesco.

Asked by Vanity Fair Italia what it's like to see her kids grow and to be a mother, she replied (translated to English): "It's not an easy answer. The answers I read about being a mother are all similar. Maybe because it's so difficult to simultaneously express the difficulty and the happiness of this journey. It's wonderful and difficult because you're responsible for the happiness of human beings who depend on your daily choices."
