Edo Mapelli Mozzi’s ex-wife revealed what co-parenting with Princess Beatrice is really like as her son is spotted out with royals

The ex of Princess Beatrice’s husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi has spoken out about co-parenting with the pair after her son was seen with the couple after their fifth wedding anniversary.

The royal couple were spotted with their second child, Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi, six months after she was born.

The new baby was welcomed to the family on 29 January at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London, and the parents, gave the world a rarely-seen glimpse of the little one as they visited the Lionesses victory parade in London on July 29.

She was born several weeks early, but Buckingham Palace confirmed she had been delivered without issue.

“Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are delighted to announce the safe arrival of their daughter, Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi, born on palace January 22 at 12.57pm, at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, London,” the statement said.

However, it wasn’t just Beatrice and Edoardo’s biological daughters, Sienna and baby Athena, with them - stepson Christopher Woolf was there too.

Woolf is the son of Edoardo who he had from his previous marriage to Dara Huang.

Huang was engaged to the property developer and they were together for three years before their split.

While you might think there would be frostiness between her and his new wife, particularly when it comes to co-parenting - it’s actually the opposite.

In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar (via PEOPLE), architect Huang explained how she and her ex co-parent Wolfie in a positive way.

"Wolfie has had two sets of parents trying to help him on both sides, and I just think, 'The more, the merrier,' " she said. "I feel lucky to have such positive people around him, who really embrace him — because it didn’t have to be so easy."

She added: "It's all about your point of view. I don't understand people who are divorced and then hold their children as collateral; that doesn't make any sense. It’s about creating a happy home and lifestyle."

All three appear to get along, with the mother also sharing her best wishes as her ex tied the knot with Beatrice in 2020.

She said in a statement at the time: "I wish the best for Edo and Beatrice and look forward to uniting our families."

When Biatrice and her hubby ventured out with their blended family, fans on social media reacted to images of the couple, and wrote on Twitter: “That is so special love that family,” and: “Lovely. Really like Eugene & Beatrice. Admire how they stay so grounded, especially with parents like theirs.”

The new family outing also came right after their fifth wedding anniversary as they enjoyed a Scotland trip away together.

The couple have been together since 2018, two years after the birth of his son.

They celebrated by sharing a sweet photo together, with Edoardo writing a loved-up message to his wife.

In the caption, he wrote: “Happy 5th Anniversary to my incredible partner, the most beautiful and amazing wife.

“I cherish every moment we’ve spent together and am deeply grateful for our journey. Here’s to countless more years filled with laughter and tons of love!”
