Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York's eldest daughter Princess Beatrice is mum to her two-year-old daughter Sienna with her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.
Beatrice is also a stepmother to Edoardo's son Christopher Woolf, age eight, who the family affectionately call 'Wolfie', and whom Edoardo shares with his ex-fiancée, architect Dara Huang.
Until recently, the public hadn't seen much of young Wolfie, however in late 2023, he joined Beatrice and Edoardo at the Christmas Day morning church service at St Mary Magdalene Church in Sandringham. He was also spotted at Princess Kate's 'Together At Christmas' carol service at Westminster Abbey.
Wolfie's first official royal outing with his father and stepmother came in 2022 at the late Queen's Platinum Jubilee pageant.

Beatrice has previously told HELLO! about her affectionate term for her stepson, "my bonus son", which shows the pair's close bond.
Talking to us about homeschooling during the pandemic in a conversation about dyslexia, Beatrice revealed: "Homeschooling, that was definitely not my forte! Not going to lie. Sadly, I can't blame that on dyslexia. But I've felt very lucky to have had the chance to work with my bonus son (Wolfie) over the course of the school closures. It was a huge learning curve for all of us."

"Bea has such a good heart and she's such a kind person, so motherhood came very naturally to her; she's a fantastic mum," Gabriella told HELLO!
"She's had Wolfie in her life since she and Edo met and has always been incredible with him. She is extremely nurturing and involved with both kids' lives. It's lovely to see my best friend growing into this next stage of her life and to share it with her."

She said: “Wolfie has had two sets of parents trying to help him on both sides, and I just think, ‘The more, the merrier.’
"I feel lucky to have such positive people around him, who really embrace him – because it didn’t have to be so easy."

On her podcast, Tea Talks with the Duchess and Sarah alongside Sarah Thomson, the Duchess revealed: "The most exciting thing is that Sienna is very very strong. She's 18 months, something like that, and Wolfie, her brother is seven, so she's really strong – she has to be."
Sarah added: "Wolfie says, 'Come on Sienna!' and off they go, and they're very close and have a great relationship."
