Princess Beatrice Turns 38! Inside Her Rare Family Album With Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi and Their Growing Brood of Three

Princess Beatrice has reached another special milestone, celebrating her 38th birthday on August 8, 2026, with attention turning to some of the rare family photographs that have captured her life with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi and their children.

Born on August 8, 1988, Beatrice has grown from a young member of the royal family into a wife and mother whose private family life is often kept away from the spotlight. Her birthday provides a rare opportunity to look back at the quieter moments she has shared with the people closest to her.

Beatrice married property developer and entrepreneur Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi in July 2020 in a small, intimate ceremony at the Royal Chapel of All Saints at Royal Lodge in Windsor. Their wedding was significantly more private than originally planned, with the COVID-19 pandemic changing the couple’s arrangements.

Their family has since grown considerably. Edoardo is father to Christopher Woolf, affectionately known as Wolfie, from a previous relationship, making Beatrice a stepmother as well as a mother to her own two daughters.

The couple welcomed their first daughter, Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi, in September 2021. The arrival marked a new chapter for Beatrice, who had previously spoken through her actions about the importance of family and close relationships. The Royal Family confirmed that Sienna was born at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London.

Then, in January 2025, Beatrice and Edoardo welcomed their second daughter, Athena Elizabeth Rose Mapelli Mozzi. Athena was born on January 22, 2025, at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, weighing 4 pounds and 5 ounces. The official announcement described the parents as delighted with the safe arrival of their daughter.

That means Beatrice’s family life now centers around a lively household of three children: Wolfie, Sienna and Athena. Recent family photographs have offered glimpses of that dynamic, from royal occasions and Christmas appearances to more relaxed family outings.

Among the memorable images highlighted for Beatrice’s birthday are photographs from the Platinum Jubilee celebrations, Christmas services and the Together at Christmas carol service. The family has also been photographed supporting England’s women’s football team following their 2025 European Championship triumph, giving royal watchers a glimpse of a more relaxed side of Beatrice and Edoardo.

What makes the photographs particularly appealing is the contrast between Beatrice’s public role and her private identity as a mother. Rather than focusing solely on formal royal engagements, the images show a family growing together through ordinary celebrations, public events and important milestones.

Beatrice’s position within the monarchy has also evolved as her own family has expanded. She currently stands ninth in the line of succession, followed by her daughters Sienna and Athena.

At 38, Princess Beatrice’s story is therefore about much more than another royal birthday. It is a snapshot of a woman who has moved through different stages of life—from granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II to wife, stepmother and mother of two daughters.

And perhaps that is what makes these rare family photographs so special: behind the royal titles and public appearances is a growing family creating memories of its own. ✨
