In a heartwarming development for fans worldwide, the cherished children’s television series Peppa Pig has introduced a new member to its animated family.
Mummy Pig gave birth to a baby girl named Evie on May 20, 2025, at 5:34 AM in the Lindo Wing of St Mary’s Hospital in London—the same prestigious facility where the Princess of Wales welcomed her children.
The announcement was made with characteristic fanfare, featuring a town crier outside the hospital and a pink scroll, echoing royal birth traditions.
Evie’s name honors Mummy Pig’s great aunt, chosen after considerable deliberation.

Peppa and her younger brother George are reportedly thrilled about their new sibling, though Mummy Pig humorously noted the challenges ahead with three children under five.
The introduction of Evie marks the first new character addition to the Peppa Pig series in two decades.
Evie will make her on-screen debut in the upcoming cinema feature, Peppa Meets the Baby, premiering on May 30, 2025.
Since its debut in 2004, Peppa Pig has become a global phenomenon, airing in over 180 countries and translated into more than 40 languages.
The franchise, acquired by Hasbro in 2019 for £3.3 billion, has generated significant revenue through merchandise, books, and theme parks.
