Princess Beatrice celebrating special day as royal bombshell looms over Prince Andrew's daughter

Her mother, Princess Beatrice, is the granddaughter of the late Queen Elizabeth II and daughter of Prince Andrew, while Sienna's father, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, holds the title of Count from his Italian lineage.

Despite her royal connections, Sienna has been largely shielded from the public eye.

Her parents have made concerted efforts to protect her privacy, sharing only occasional glimpses of their daughter.

Sienna arrived just over a year after her parents' marriage in July 2020, which was scaled down due to COVID-19 restrictions.

On Sienna's second birthday, her father Edoardo shared a rare glimpse on Instagram, posting a photo of her wearing a sombrero.

He captioned it: "Happy Birthday Baby Girl. You bring us so much love and joy every day."

It comes as Princess Beatrice is set to feature in the upcoming Amazon Prime series A Very Royal Scandal which will offer a fresh perspective on Prince Andrew's controversial 2019 Newsnight interview.

The three-part drama, starring Michael Sheen as the Duke of York and Ruth Wilson as Emily Maitlis, will be released tomorrow.

Former BBC journalist Emily Maitlis serves as an executive producer, lending her unique insights to the project.

This series follows Netflix's Scoop, released in April, which also dramatised the interview.

However, Maitlis has downplayed any rivalry between the two productions.

• Prince William and Kate 'ordered by King Charles' to make public appearance alongside Prince Andrew

Unlike Scoop, which was based on a book by former BBC producer Sam McAlister, A Very Royal Scandal will be a three-episode series rather than a film.

Princess Beatrice's role in facilitating the Newsnight interview was discussed in Sam McAlister's book.

"Princess Beatrice was a total curveball," McAlister wrote, noting the princess's presence changed the atmosphere and potentially influenced the Duke of York's decision to proceed with the interview.

This revelation added another layer to the story surrounding the interview, highlighting the Princess of York's involvement behind the scenes.
