Princess Eugenie's son August has hit a v cute milestone

It's been a bumper time for royal baby news, as Princess Beatrice welcomed a daughter into the world, then announced the little one's name - Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi.

Baby Sienna, the Queen's latest great-grandchild is a new cousin to Princess Eugenie's son August, who's also bringing lots of joy to his family.

In fact, August's grandma Sarah Ferguson has opened up about the little one hitting milestone moments, including how lovely it is that he's smiling socially.

Speaking at Hello!'s annual inspiration awards, Sarah was filled with pride as she praised "phenomenal mothers" Beatrice and Eugenie and her "two exceptional grandchildren" who've both been born in 2021.

"You know it's pretty incredible, but everyone asks me, 'How are your grandchildren?' Well, firstly, I look at my girls being wonderful mothers and then I see these incredible beings," Sarah said.

"It's so funny because when August smiles at me now, because he's seven and a half months, you actually know he genuinely likes you. It's not a put-on smile, he genuinely finds me very funny which is quite lucky," Fergie added.

N'awwwh!

The sweet August update comes a couple of weeks after his Auntie Beatrice gave birth to baby Sienna at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.

The announcement statement read: "Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are delighted to announce the safe arrival of their daughter."

It continued, "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 [Edoardo's son from a previous relationship]."

Following the announcement, Princess Eugenie, took to Instagram to share a sweet message celebrating the birth of her niece alongside a photo of the happy couple. "To my dearest Beabea and Edo," she wrote, "Congratulations on your new angel. I can't wait to meet her and I'm so proud of you. We're going to have so much fun watching our children grow up. Love Euge."

She continued, "To my new niece, I love you already and think you're just awesome from the photos.. we're going to have so much fun ⁣together. Love your Auntie Euge." Cute!
