The British royal family is officially expanding as Princess Beatrice and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, are expecting their second child.

Buckingham Palace made the announcement Tuesday that the elder daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York, is pregnant and due in early spring.

“Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr. Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their second child together in early spring; a sibling for Wolfie and Sienna,” the palace shared on its official social media channels.

Officials added that Beatrice’s uncle, King Charles III, had “been informed and both families are delighted with the news.”

Mozzi, a property tycoon, and Beatrice married in an intimate ceremony in Windsor in 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Beatrice’s close family, including Prince Andrew and grandparents Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip were all in attendance.

The couple welcomed their first child together, Sienna Elizabeth, on Sept. 18, 2021.

Mozzi also has son, Wolfie, from his previous relationship with American architect and designer Dara Huang.

Beatrice and her husband reportedly split their time between London and New York City, where she works as the vice president of partnerships and strategy for software company Afiniti. She is ninth in the British line of succession to the royal throne – one position behind Prince Andrew.
