Princess Beatrice

The world was intrigued when it was revealed Princess Beatrice was set to marry millionaire property tycoon Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi - and that she would be stepmum to his young son Christopher Woolf, affectionately called "Wolfie".

The pair tied the knot in the midst of the Covid pandemic and Beatrice, 36, dotes on her "bonus child" Wolfie, now nine, calling it a "great honour" to be in his life.

Wolfie's now the proud big brother to Sienna, three, and Athena, eight months, who are Edo, 41, and Beatrice's two daughters.

His mum, architect Dara Huang, 42, is thrilled to have Beatrice as a co-parent.

"Wolfie has had two sets of parents trying to help him on both sides and I just think, 'The more, the merrier," says Dara. “I don't understand people who are divorced and then hold their children as collateral. It's about creating a happy home and lifestyle.”
