Princess Beatrice and Husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi Share Exciting Family Update
Congratulations are in order for Princess Beatrice.
The 36-year-old eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson is expecting her second child with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, according to the Daily Mail.
The couple already share a 3-year-old daughter, Sienna Elizabeth, and Beatrice is stepmom to Edoardo's 8-year-old son Wolfie, shared with his ex-fiancée, Dara Huang.
The news was announced in a statement from Buckingham Palace which read, "Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr. Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their second child together in early spring; a sibling for Wolfie, aged eight, and Sienna, aged three. His Majesty The King has been informed and both families are delighted with the news."

Beatrice and Edoardo, who tied the knot in 2020 at the Royal Chapel of All Saints at Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park after making their first public appearance as a couple in 2019, have been residing in St James's Palace while their house in the Cotswolds undergoes renovations.
The couple's new baby will be the 14th great-grandchild of Queen Elizabeth and 11th in line to the throne, behind big sister Sienna and mom Beatrice, but will not have a royal title.
While Sienna doesn't have a royal title either, she's officially a "contessa," or a "nobile donna" as her dad, Edoardo—son of the former Olympic skier Count Alessandro Mapelli Mozzi—has noble ancestry and will one day inherit his family's seat, the 18th-century Villa Mapelli Mozzi palace in northern Italy.
