Princess Margarita of Bourbon-Parma is a mom! Princess Margarita and her husband, lawyer Tjalling Ten Cate, welcomed their first child last Wednesday, September 3rd in Amsterdam. Baby girl Julia Carolina Catharina weighed in at 7 lbs, 5.28 oz. and is said to be doing very well. According to their personal secretary, the proud dad made a quick trip to the civil registry the next day to register his new daughter.

The recent newlyweds announced the pregnancy back in February and were married in a quiet ceremony in May. Princess Margarita’s mother, Princess Irene, is the sister of Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands.

   I love the names Carolina and Catharina. Julia no doubt named after her grandmother Queen Julianna!

   Carolina is the name of the sister of princess Margerita. Catharina is a name which is often used by the Dutch royalty, the cure eldest daughter of our crownprince is called Catharina-Amalia (she goes by Amalia). I have to say too that Margerita is looking good! And really happy…

   Catherina is Tjalling’s grandmother, so they both honoured their grandmother’s with the baby names!
