Queen's seventh great-grandchild, a girl, is born to Zara Tindall

Zara Phillips Tindall, the eldest granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II, gave birth to her second baby, a girl, on Monday, giving Her Majesty her seventh great-grandchild, Buckingham Palace announced.

"Mrs. Michael Tindall was safely delivered of a baby girl on 18th June, at Stroud Maternity Unit. Mr. Tindall was present at the birth," the palace press release said Tuesday.

The baby, whose name was not announced, weighed 9 pounds and 3 ounces.

It's the second child for Zara Tindall, 37, an equestrian who won a silver medal at the 2012 London Olympics, and her husband, a former rugby star. Their first, daughter Mia Grace Tindall, is 4.
