Grace Kelly’s grandson Louis Ducruet and his wife Marie have announced the arrival of their baby girl. The couple, who tied the knot in Monaco in 2019, took to Instagram yesterday to celebrate the birth of their newborn with an adorable photo showing the baby’s leg, revealing her name was Victoire.
Louis and Marie tied the knot in July 2019 and announced in November last year that they were expecting the new addition to their family.
The French name Victoire translates as ‘Victory’ and is a variation of the name ‘Victoria’ – which has been popular with many British royals.
Fans took to the comments to wish the pair well, with one comment reading: “Congratulations and many blessings.” A second wrote: “Congratulations and all the best.” A third wrote: “Congratulations, welcome to the world Victoria.”
Earlier this year, Marie showed off her baby bump in an adorable Instagram photo after the couple revealed they are expecting their first child together.
She posed for a portrait on social media, showing off her growing belly in a chic crimson blouse decorated with floral designs.
“Goodbye twenty, welcome big belly,” she wrote in the caption. “Thanks for all your birthday wishes.”
The Frenchman, who appeared to be spending the first few days of the new year at Auron Ski Resort near the town of Saint-Étienne-de-Tinée, smiled happily at the camera.
She wore her auburn smooth locks down and sported a fresh, dewy makeup look.

The bride’s dress for the religious ceremony was made by Atelier Boisanger.
The dress was made of Zagar and Chantilly Lace, while according to their designers, the dress also required 300 hours of delicate embroidery.
