What’s Really Going on Between Princess Beatrice and Her Husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi?
There have been numerous rumors and plenty of speculation over the last several months about Princess Beatrice and Edoardo “Edo” Mapelli Mozzi’s marriage.
Claims that their relationship was on the rocks began in early 2026, when Edo, who is a property developer, began traveling a lot and sharing Instagram pics of his time in the U.S.
A source told Women’s Day that things between the royal and her husband have gotten to the point where “divorce seems to be inevitable” and Edo had “been pulling away from his wife more and more ever since this scandal erupted with her parents. Edo bolts to America or other far-flung places seemingly any chance he gets, so in that sense he’s the one who’s left her high and dry.”
However, a friend of Beatrice and Edo’s disputed that claim, telling Hello! “The only thing Bea and Edo are navigating are their busy jobs and looking after their children!” “They’ve both had recent stints working abroad and like so many working parents, have been balancing work with looking after the kids. Recent reports that things aren’t good between them are not true at all. Things are great between them and the only distance between them recently has been physical distance because of work!”
But still, the rumors just wouldn’t die down. Now though, an expert is pointing out the couple may have turned a corner, given how they acted towards each other at Cornbury Horse Trials on Sept. 11.

Speaking on behalf of BetfairCasino home to games such as Big Bass Splash Slot, Stanton told Showboz Cheat Sheet, “Edoardo and Beatrice are very much doing their own thing, but they’re walking very closely together, which immediately suggests a strong sense of comfort and connection. There’s a very business-as-usual feel to their body language; neither looks stressed or preoccupied, and Beatrice’s genuine smile, including the crow’s feet, shows authentic happiness and contentment.
“They also look very symmetrical, both in their posture and the direction of their gaze, which gives the image a very natural sense of togetherness. There was another lovely moment where Beatrice leans into Edoardo, almost resting her head on his shoulder, while he turns towards her and adopts a protective gesture. That lean in from Beatrice shows a degree of vulnerability in a positive sense – they’re clearly comfortable enough with each other to completely relax into the moment.”
Stanton added, “It also feels very natural rather than staged. There’s no obvious tension in either of their faces, with no furrowing of the forehead or signs of stress, just genuine smiles and relaxed body language.”
