Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis have a new cousin!

Pippa Middleton, the younger sister of Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, has welcomed her second child with husband James Matthews. The couple welcomed a baby girl on Monday, March 15 around 4:22 a.m. She weighed in at 6lbs and 7oz. “She’s perfect, everyone is overjoyed at such a happy arrival,” a source told PEOPLE.

The couple named the baby girl, Grace Elizabeth Jane, opting to give her the same middle name as her aunt, Kate Middleton. The baby girl is the fifth grandchild for Carole and Michael Middleton, following cousins Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis, as well as her older brother, Arthur.

Middleton and Matthews, who married in 2017 and also share a son, Arthur, born in October 2018, first announced the pregnancy late last year. “Pippa and James are thrilled, it’s fantastic news amid a difficult year. The entire family is delighted," a source told Page Six at the time.

Congratulations to the growing family!
