A source told HELLO! magazine: “Mother and baby are doing well.

“She’s perfect, everyone is overjoyed at such a happy arrival.”

Pippa, 37, and James, 45, are already parents to two-year-old son Arthur. 

And Grace’s middle names Elizabeth and Grace are a loving nod to her two grandmothers, Carole Elizabeth Middleton and Jane Matthews. 

Carole confirmed her daughter’s pregnancy in an interview with Good Housekeeping last month.

The mum-of-three opened up about being a “very hands-on” gran to Kate Middleton’s children Prince George, seven, Princess Charlotte, five, and Prince Louis, two, as well as Pippa’s first child Arthur, two.

And speaking of her hopes for the year ahead, Carole said: “I hope to see more of my family than I could last year, including, of course, my new grandchild.”

Pippa and James tied the knot in 2017 at St. Mark’s Church in Englefield and in 2018, they welcomes baby Arthur in St Mary’s Hospital in London. 

It was the same place where sister Kate gave birth to all three of her children.
