Beatrice's father is not mentioned in the actual play, but it is commonly accepted that she is a ward to Leonato, Hero's father. She may have been a orphan adopted by the family, or an illegitimate child within the family. Leonato calls her both 'cousin' and 'niece', Hero calling her just 'cousin'.
