A royal couple has welcomed their first child via surrogacy this summer. It was announced this week that Prince Philippos and Princess Nina of Greece have become first-time parents, with their baby born in the US over the summer.
Confirmed on September 1, the couple has named their son Kimon Thomas Konstantinos, who arrived via surrogacy on July 27. The announcement came as a delightful surprise to many, given that the couple had not previously disclosed they were expecting.
The birth comes nearly six years after the Royal pair tied the knot in 2020. This comes as Princess Eugenie gave birth to her third child.

An official statement released by the office of the former Royal Family of Greece reads, "Philip De Gres and his wife, Nina, announce with great joy the birth of their first child, Kimon Thomas Konstantinos, on July 27, 2026, in the United States of America.

"They would also like to express their sincere appreciation to all the medical staff and specialists, whose scientific training, care and support accompanied them throughout this journey.
"Philip and Nina are enjoying these first precious weeks together with Kimonas and are deeply happy to begin, together with their son, this new chapter in their family's life."
Although Greece abolished its monarchy back in 1974, the pair continue to carry their royal titles.
The couple exchanged vows in December 2020 in St. Moritz, Switzerland.
The couple own a residence in London and are thought to divide their time living in New York City as well.
They have not yet posted a photograph of their son online.
