The Queen’s granddaughter is all smiles on the magazine cover as she poses with 5-week-old Mia Grace.

The first official pictures of Mia were taken at Zara and Mike’s cottage on Princess Anne’s Gatcombe Park estate in Gloucestershire.

Speaking to Hello! Magazine about sharing news of the birth, Mike said: “I sent a text to all the family. Zara is very close to her grandmother, so of course she made a phone call once we got back home.”

Zara, 32, said Mia is “pretty relaxed and happy so far” and Mike describes becoming a dad as “awesome”.

The couple also revealed they planned to conceive in time for a December or January birth so Zara can compete in August’s Equestrian World Championships.

Mike said: “I can see that Z is itching to be out there again.”

Zara also says there is a Shetland pony lined up for her daughter to learn to ride.
