Who is Princess Beatrice’s stepson Christopher Woolf Mapelli Mozzi?

A loving stepmother

Princess Beatrice recently became a stepmother when she married Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. She has reportedly taken on the role with ease and is a great second mother to Christopher Woolf Mapelli Mozzi, affectionately known as Wolfie.

Meet Wolfie

Christopher Woolf Mapelli Mozzi is Princess Beatrice's stepson. He became her stepchild when she married Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi. Princess Beatrice refers to Wolfie as her "bonus son" and has embraced her role as his stepmother.

The biological mother

Wolfie's biological mother is Dara Huang, an American architect. Dara and Edoardo were engaged until 2018 but decided to end their relationship. Dara currently resides in London with her son and has expressed relief that he is in England due to her concerns about gun laws in the US.

A concern for safety

Dara has been vocal about her preference for Wolfie to receive his education in the UK rather than in the US. She has raised concerns about gun laws, stating that she feels more at ease knowing that her son attends school in a country with stricter regulations on firearms.

The father figure

Wolfie's father is Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, who is married to Princess Beatrice. Edoardo is an English property developer and a member of a prominent Italian family. He founded Banda Property, a property consultancy firm catering to affluent clients.

A royal wedding

Princess Beatrice and Edoardo tied the knot in 2020 in a private ceremony at the Royal Chapel of All Saints in Windsor Great Park. Their wedding was attended by a small group of 20 guests, including the late Queen, Prince Philip, and Prince Andrew.

A new addition to the family

In September 2021, Princess Beatrice gave birth to their daughter, Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi. The baby arrived at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, weighing 6 pounds and 2 ounces. The family expressed their joy at the safe arrival of their daughter and thanked the hospital staff for their excellent care.

A change of residence

The family initially lived in a four-bedroom apartment at St James's Palace but later moved to a manor home in the Cotswolds in late 2022.

No royal title

Despite his connection to royalty, Wolfie does not hold a royal title. Only specific members of the royal family are eligible for HRH status and prince/princess titles. Therefore, Wolfie is not entitled to a royal title.
