Adorable Royal Baby Pictures Throughout The Years

From newborn Queen Elizabeth to little Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, these photos are regally cute.

The British royal family has expanded a lot in 2021.

In February, Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, welcomed their first child. The couple then announced their son’s name, August Philip Hawke Brooksbank, and shared two sweet family photos.

Princess Anne’s daughter, Zara Tindall, welcomed her third child with husband Mike Tindall in March. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle welcomed their second child, Lilibet Diana, in June, following a devastating miscarriage in July 2020. And Princess Beatrice welcomed a daughter in September, after announcing she was expecting her first child with her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, in May.

In honor of all the baby bliss, we’ve rounded up 41 cute photos of royal babies (and toddlers) over the years.
