Princess Beatrice is actively involved in raising her young family alongside her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. As the eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, and a granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II, Beatrice married property developer Edoardo in 2020. Their daughter, Sienna Elizabeth, was born in September 2021, expanding their growing family.
In addition to Sienna, Beatrice is a devoted stepmother to Christopher “Wolfie” Woolf, Edoardo’s son from his previous relationship with Dara Huang. She has embraced this role, paying tribute to both children by incorporating their initials into her jewelry and expressing her honor in being Wolfie’s stepmom.

“He is a vital part of their lives,” a friend of Beatrice shared with PEOPLE in 2019, adding that Beatrice has included him as part of her family from the beginning.
In October 2024, Beatrice and Edoardo joyfully revealed that they are expecting another child, due in spring 2025. The palace confirmed the news, sharing that both families are thrilled with the upcoming addition. From holiday trips to royal moments, here’s a closer look at Princess Beatrice’s growing family.
Christopher Woolf (Wolfie), Age 8
Wolfie, born in April 2016 to Edoardo and Dara Huang, has been lovingly integrated into Beatrice’s life since she and Edo began their relationship.
After Edoardo and Dara separated in 2018, they agreed on joint custody for their son. Wolfie spends time with his father when Huang travels for work between London and Hong Kong, giving Beatrice the opportunity to form a close bond with him.
“Beatrice is showing how wonderful she is as a stepmother,” a source mentioned in 2019 after Beatrice and Edoardo’s engagement. The family has already enjoyed vacations together and is extremely happy.
Wolfie played an important part in Edo and Beatrice’s wedding, serving both as the page boy and his father’s best man. He’s a proud older brother to Sienna, with Beatrice referring to him as “the best big brother” in an October 2021 tweet.
In December 2022, Wolfie made his second public appearance with the royal family, joining his dad and stepmom for the traditional Christmas walk to church at Sandringham. He also participated in the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Pageant earlier that year.
Though his parents keep his face private on social media, they often share details about his love for travel, with highlights from trips to Greece, Costa Rica, and Portugal. To celebrate his 6th birthday, Wolfie and his mother enjoyed a special beach getaway, fulfilling his wish for sunshine and sand.
Despite his young age, Wolfie has already started exploring his artistic talents, with Dara posting videos of him helping her paint and creating his own artwork. In May 2023, Beatrice also shared that they both have a shared passion for reading, frequently enjoying books together.
Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi, Age 3
Sienna Elizabeth, born on September 18, 2021, at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, is the couple’s first child together. Her first name is said to be a nod to Beatrice and her mother’s red hair, while her middle name honors her late great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II. Like her cousins, Sienna carries on the family tradition of having Elizabeth as a middle name, just as Prince Harry’s daughter, Lilibet, does.
In addition to her royal lineage, Sienna inherits Italian nobility from her father’s side. Edoardo comes from a noble family and is set to inherit the historic Villa Mapelli Mozzi in Italy, making both Beatrice and Sienna “Contessas” and “Nobile Donna.”
When they announced Sienna’s name in October 2021, Edoardo shared his heartfelt joy on Instagram, expressing his excitement for their family’s future and his love for Beatrice, Sienna, and Wolfie.
In May 2023, Beatrice’s close friend, Gabriela Peacock, revealed that she had the honor of being Sienna’s godmother. Beatrice also holds the title of godmother to Peacock’s daughter, Iris.
Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, has proudly spoken about her granddaughter Sienna, often sharing stories on her podcast, “Tea Talks with the Duchess and Sarah.” She mentioned how much Sienna loves to play and how thrilled she is to babysit her granddaughter when Beatrice and Edoardo are away.
To celebrate Sienna’s second birthday in September, Edoardo posted a charming photo of her in a floral dress and sombrero, writing a loving message about the joy she brings to their lives.
The Upcoming Addition to the Family
On October 1, 2024, Buckingham Palace officially announced that Beatrice and Edoardo are expecting their second child, due in spring 2025. This new baby will join big siblings Wolfie and Sienna, bringing more joy to the family. King Charles and both sides of the family are said to be delighted by the news.
