According to Mail on Sunday, Edo’s son, Christopher, could play a part in their big day, with sources telling the publication he could be the “best man” for his father. 

Despite the fact that Christopher, who is affectionately known as Wolfie, is only two years old, sources are adamant the toddler will make an appearance at the wedding. 

Wolfie’s mother is Dara Huang, an architect and designer who was previously engaged to Edo before they broke off their relationship in 2018. 

Shortly after their split, Beatrice and Edorado got together. 

While 34-year-old Edo is said to be a great father to Wolfie, Princess Beatrice has allegedly become close with her soon-to-be stepson, so it shouldn’t be too much of a surprise that they want him to share in their wedding day.

Edoardo and his ex, Dara are determined to keep things stable for their son, a source told Mail on Sunday“They take turns over who stays in the family house, keeping Wolfie in a consistent environment.”

Adding that Princess Beatrice is positive about their relationship. 

“Dara and Edo are finding co-parenting to be a great way for one of them to be with Wolfie at all times as they both have busy schedules,” they told the publication.

Wolfie’s mum, Dara, is happy for her son to play a part in the royal wedding. 

“But in a very modern and grown-up way, she is totally happy that Beatrice will be developing a relationship with her son and is happy that he will attend the wedding as Edo’s best man,” the source said. 

Another source opened up about Edo’s relationship with his son.

“Edo is easily one of the best dads,” a source told PEOPLE of the multi-millionaire property developer.

“He is so involved, he is so committed to this little boy, and Beatrice is already showing that she’s a fantastic step-mummy already. They’ve been on family vacations together already. They are really happy, there’s no better person they could have for a step-mummy.”

Beatrice and Edo are expected to marry next year sometime in the UK spring.
