Princess Beatrice Strayed From Royal Conventions At Her Wedding

Princess Beatrice of England and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi aren't your typical royal couple, so it’s not surprising that their wedding would stray from a standard Windsor bash. Two major conventions were broken when the pair tied the knot, and a gesture from Queen Elizabeth might prove how Buckingham really felt about the spectacle.

A princess tale

Princess Beatrice doesn't make as many headlines as Kate Middleton or Meghan Markle. A granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth who's far from the throne, she doesn't have quite as packed of a royal calendar. Still, she finds ways to stand out.

Stepping out

While Prince William attends charity events all throughout England, Princess Beatrice (much like Prince Harry) has opted for a different lifestyle, living part-time in New York City and working as the Vice President of Partnerships and Strategy at Afiniti. Still, it was in London she met her future husband.

An unexpected romance

In 2019, Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi were introduced to each other by friends. They hit it off almost instantly and made their first public appearance at the National Portrait Gallery's Gala. Soon after, the public saw another curious appearance.

The next step

Whispers about the intensity of their relationship grew when Mozzi joined Beatrice on a family vacation to the Bahrain Grand Prix in March 2019. The world started to take notice of this potentially royal entanglement, and one public move solidified the deal.
