Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi were recently seen enjoying time with their children while marking their fifth wedding anniversary. The royal couple were joined by their newborn daughter, Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi, and Edoardo’s son Christopher Woolf from his previous relationship.
A new addition to the family
Athena, the couple’s second child, was born on January 29 at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London. Although she arrived a few weeks early, Buckingham Palace confirmed that both mother and baby were doing well.
The family shared a rare public appearance with the little one during the Lionesses victory parade in London on July 29, six months after her birth. Beatrice and Edoardo also share a daughter, Sienna, who was not spotted during this outing.
Positive co-parenting with Dara Huang
Christopher Woolf, known as Wolfie, joined the couple during their anniversary celebrations. Wolfie is Edoardo’s son from his previous relationship with architect Dara Huang. Despite what some might expect, there is no tension between Huang and the royal couple.
Speaking to Harper’s Bazaar, Huang shared that she values the collaborative approach they have to raising Wolfie. She said, “Wolfie has had two sets of parents trying to help him on both sides, and I just think, the more, the merrier. I feel lucky to have such positive people around him, who really embrace him — because it didn’t have to be so easy.”
She also emphasized the importance of perspective in co-parenting, stating, “It’s about creating a happy home and lifestyle. I don’t understand people who hold their children as collateral. That doesn’t make any sense.”
Huang previously expressed her best wishes when Beatrice and Edoardo married in 2020, noting that she looked forward to uniting their families.
Celebrating five years together
The family outing came just after Beatrice and Edoardo celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary with a trip to Scotland. Edoardo marked the occasion with a heartfelt message to his wife on social media, writing, “Happy 5th Anniversary to my incredible partner, the most beautiful and amazing wife. I cherish every moment we’ve spent together and am deeply grateful for our journey. Here’s to countless more years filled with laughter and tons of love.”
Fans online praised the family’s warmth and grounded nature, commenting on how special it was to see them together.
