Princess Beatrice has been dealing with a lot the past year, especially considering her father, Andrew’s, removal from the royal family and all the controversies that led to the decision. While she’s allegedly been handling the day-to-day activities as a part-time royal just fine, a major family milestone slipped through the cracks, and eagle-eyed royal fans just now noticed.

In case you missed it, Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi’s daughter Athena turned one on Jan. 22. However, there was no acknowledgement anywhere: no social posts, announcements, etc. This comes as a bit of a shock, but the timing of it all makes sense.

Right now, all eyes are on Andrew as he leaves the Royal Lodge, which happened soon after Virginia Guiffre’s posthumously-released memoir, NOBODY’S GIRL released. He’s lost his titles, a lot of his money and connections, and the Lodge, and it seems both his daughters are estranged from him.

So amid all his controversies, it makes sense the royals don’t want any spotlight on the York family.

Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor was born in Bruton Street, Mayfair, London on 21 April 1926. She married Prince Philip in 1947 and ascended the throne of the United Kingdom and Commonwealth on 6 February 1952 after the death of her Father, King George VI.

For those who don’t know, Beatrice and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, met back in 2018, and by Sept 2019, they got engaged. They later married in May 2020. Beatrice became the stepmom of Mozzi’s son, Christopher Woolf, born in April 2016.

Then, they welcomed a daughter together named Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi on Sept 2021. And on Jan 22, 2025, they welcomed another daughter named Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi.
