Prince Harry’s ex-girlfriend, Cressida Bonas, has shared new images of her newborn baby, revealing her name which is tragic nod to her late sister.

Cressida - who dated the Duke of Sussex from 2012 to 2014 after reportedly being introduced by Harry's cousin, Princess Eugenie - took to Instagram on Wednesday (2 July) to share five black-and-white photos of herself with the newborn tot, along with her husband, Harry Wentworth-Stanley, and their son, Wilbur James, who was born in 2022 via IVF.

In the caption of the post, she penned a tribute to her half-sister, Pandora, who passed away in July 2024 at age 51, decades after she was first diagnosed with cancer at 26.

Cressida, 36, captioned the series of sweet family snaps: "Delphina Pandora… Our first few weeks with Delphi…"

She continued: "Before she arrived, I wondered how it was possible to love anything as much as we love our boy.

"Then this little love bug showed up with a Mohawk hairdo and our hearts just expanded."

She rounded off the touching message: "Sometimes when I look into her eyes, I see a twinkle that reminds me of my sister Pandora."

Pandora had Li-Fraumeni syndrome, a rare hereditary syndrome that can increase the risk of several types of cancer, with Cressida writing about how 'my heart is forever tied to yours' in an emotional tribute following her death last year.

Alongside a carousel post featuring an array of photos of her and Pandora over the years, she penned: "I will find you in the colours of life and moments of mischief. I’ll search for you in the stars and wherever there is dancing. I will turn the music up and dance more than ever before. I’ll look for you in my dreams where you’ll say, 'Hi Smally,' and tell me where you’ve been.

"Then one day, I’ll remember you said in one of your final days, 'I don’t know what all the fuss is about, I ain’t going nowhere…' And I’ll realise, I never had to look for you at all. You were right here beside me all along, because, my darling sister, my heart is forever tied to yours."
