Princess Beatrice, granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II plans to wed Italian entrepreneur Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi later this year. The wedding is set to happen in London and it is believed to be grander than her younger sister, Princess Eugenie’s wedding.
Beatrice, 31, and Eugenie, 29, are daughters of the queen’s second son Prince Andrew, who has been embroiled in a scandal over his friendship with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
He stepped back from royal duties in November over his links to the disgraced financier, who was found dead in prison as he faced charges of sexually exploiting underage girls.
According to the statement from Buckingham Palace, Beatrice’s wedding, in the Chapel Royal at St James’s, “will be followed by a private reception, given by The Queen, in the gardens of Buckingham Palace”.
The Royal Chapel has hosted many weddings in the royal family, including that of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert on February 10, 1840.
It is also popular for royal baptisms, including that of Prince George — the eldest son of Prince William and his wife Kate.
Beatrice and her sister’s mother is Sarah Ferguson. She and Andrew divorced in 1996.
Mozzi, 36, is a wealthy real estate tycoon, ex-member of the international jet-set and a cricket fan. He has one son from a previous relationship.
Beatrice and Eugenie are respectively ninth and 10th in line to the British throne.
