Princess Beatrice’s wedding hanging in the balance because of the Queen

What's the hold up?
  • 18 Sep 2019

Rumours of an impending engagement between Princess Beatrice and her boyfriend Edoardo 'Edo' Mapelli Mozzi have been circulating for months.

The couple, who have been dating since September 2018 and went public with their relationship in March this year, have attended numerous royal engagements together, including the wedding of Lady Gabriella Windsor in May.

WATCH: Princess Beatrice refuses to curtsy to the Queen 

They are also said to now be living together, with Edo thought to have moved into Bea's apartment in St James's Palace earlier this year.

But the smitten pair are unable to make things official, with the announcement of their own big day stalled, as it is held up by Queen Elizabeth II.

According to a royal expert, the delay is being caused by the Queen's hectic schedule.

Of course, Beatrice would want her grandmother to attend her wedding, but as the British Monarch, the Queen has a busy schedule of royal engagements and duties to perform. 

Beatrice’s wedding date will depend on when her grandmother the Queen is free to attend, royal commentator and editor in chief of Majesty magazine, Ingrid Seward told Hello!

“They have to find a gap in her diary before they name the day," she explained to the publication.

Talk is rife that Beatrice and Edoardo will tie the knot in a royal wedding next year. 

And bookies are so certain that their engagement is set to be announced that they have suspended betting. 

And Ingrid Seward, backed up the rumours, telling Hello!: “They’re going to get married – I was told by a member of the family.

“I think a wedding as early as next spring or summer is likely.”
