Shock revelation: Bea and Edo moving to Italy

Harry and Meghan aren’t the only royals fleeing the UK! - by New Idea
  • 29 Jun 2020

Princess Beatrice was forced to postpone her royal wedding due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but that hasn’t stopped her from forging ahead with plans for the future.

Beatrice, 31, and her fiancé, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, are reportedly now considering moving abroad to Italy.

Royals author Phil Dampier says “it wouldn’t surprise” him if the couple relocated to Europe. Edoardo, 37, also has ties to Italy as a descendant of an Italian noble family.

However, Phil speculates that the catalyst for the move is likely to be Beatrice’s desire “to get away from it all” and “start a new life”.

“She has had to put up with a lot, having her wedding postponed, and also the furore over her father Prince Andrew and the Epstein scandal,” explains Phil. “She is not a working royal and she deserves to be happy,” he adds.

Phil believes it’s a realistic move for successful property developer Edoardo, who would able to “run his property empire from pretty much anywhere”.

And Beatrice is unlikely to get homesick either, with sister Princess Eugenie and parents Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson just a short plane ride away.

“Italy is only a couple of hours away from the UK and the Yorks use planes like buses, so it wouldn’t be a problem,” notes Phil.

Princess Beatrice's wedding will likely become a bigger affair, much like her sister Princess Eugenie's (right) nuptials.

It’s been a rough trot for Beatrice and Edo of late, with their special day thrown into chaos like many other couples across the world thanks to the coronavirus crisis.

The original wedding plans were scrapped and the pair are looking to host a much bigger celebration, instead of the original 150-person event they had organised for May.

Bea and Edo are now planning a huge wedding – much like Princess Eugenie’s televised wedding in 2018.
