Another great-grandchild is on the way for Queen Elizabeth.
The queen's granddaughter Princess Beatrice and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, are expecting a baby this fall, Buckingham Palace announced Wednesday.
"The Queen has been informed, and both families are delighted with the news," the palace said in a statement.
Beatrice and Mapelli Mozzi's baby, their first, will be the 12th great-grandchild for Queen Elizabeth and her late husband, Prince Philip, who passed away in April.

Instead they had a small wedding with only "close family," including the queen and Prince Philip, attending, Buckingham Palace said at the time.
Beatrice, who is a stepmom to Mapelli Mozzi's son, Wolfie, is the eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson.
Beatrice's sister, Eugenie, gave birth in February to her first child, a son named August Philip Hawke Brooksbank.
Beatrice's baby will be the second grandchild for Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson.
