A spokesperson for the couple announced the news, writing: "Zara and Mike Tindall have named their baby daughter Lena Elizabeth." Little Lena is the little sister to the couple's four-year-old daughter, Mia, and is the fourth grandchild for Princess Anne, and the Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh's seventh great-grandchild.

The couple welcomed the addition to the royal family two years after Zara tragically suffered a miscarriage in 2016, one month after the couple announced the happy news. A spokeswoman for the couple released a statement at the time, which read: "Very sadly, Zara and Mike Tindall have lost their baby. At this difficult time, we ask that everyone respects their privacy." Mike has since opened up about their loss, praising their daughter Mia for being their "saving grace".
