The Palace announced that the Princess of York is expecting her second child with her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi

The mother of Princess Beatrice's stepson posted a series of gorgeous model pictures on her Instagram story, just hours after Buckingham Palace announced the royal baby news.

Earlier today, the Palace announced that Beatrice, 36, is expecting her second child with her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.


A statement was released that read: "Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their second child together in early spring; a sibling for Wolfie, aged eight, and Sienna, aged three.

"His Majesty The King has been informed and both families are delighted with the news."

A few hours later, Edoardo's ex-partner, Dara Huang, took to her Instagram story with her first official post following the royal baby news.

The American architect, who dated Edoardo between 2015 and 2018, re-shared AI model photographs of herself which were posted on the social media platform the previous day.

The original caption of the photographs reads: "Here are my office looks. Thanks @azeemeh_ for sending me these fun images of me as a [robot emoji]."

When Huang re-shared the images on her Instagram story, she added four laughing emojis to accompany the post.

Huang later deleted the social media post and added a picture of herself alongside her friend, Mimi Ikonn, dining at NIJU, a Japanese restaurant in London.

The architect shares an eight-year-old son named Christopher Woolf, known as Wolfie, with her ex-partner Edoardo.

Edoardo later tied the knot with Princess Beatrice on July 17, 2020, in the All Saints Chapel in Windsor.

They welcomed their first child together in September 2021, a daughter named Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi.

Huang has previously spoken out about the ease of co-parenting Wolfie with her ex-partner and his new wife.

She told Harper's Bazaar earlier this year: "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.

"It’s all about your point of view. I don't understand people who are divorced and then hold their children as collateral; that doesn’t make any sense. It’s about creating a happy home and lifestyle."
