Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi

He became a member of the British royal family in 2020 when he married Princess Beatrice, the elder daughter of Prince Andrew, Duke of York, and a niece of King Charles III.

[1] He is the son of Alessandro "Alex" Mapelli-Mozzi, a British Olympian and member of a formerly titled Italian noble family whose ancestral seat is Villa Mapelli Mozzi in the Bergamo province of Italy.

[2][3][4] The BBC states that Mapelli Mozzi is a count;[5] although titles of nobility are not officially recognized in the Italian Republic, they can still be used out of courtesy.

[15] This has been challenged by property experts on Twitter and Forbes, who argue that "there is nothing undervalued in Notting Hill", where Mapelli Mozzi's latest project is located, and describe the district as "a super prime residential destination".

[18] In 2012, Mapelli Mozzi cycled 100 kilometres (62 mi) overnight in London in the Nightrider Challenge to raise funds for the Cricket Builds Hope foundation.

The couple initially lived in a four-bedroom apartment at St James's Palace, but they reportedly moved to a manor home in the Cotswolds in late 2022.

[34] Mapelli Mozzi is active on social media, including Twitter, where he has spoken against plastic pollution in the oceans and whaling in Japan, and shared messages about gun control in the United States.

[12] He has criticised British politicians Andrea Leadsom and Jeremy Corbyn in the past, and used the hashtag "ImWithHer" on Twitter on the night of the 2016 United States presidential election to show his support for the Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton.
