The property developer shares two daughters, Sienna and Athena, with Princess Beatrice

Dara Huang has shared glimpses of her current trip to Italy, offering a look at the Amalfi Coast just days after developments emerged in the professional life of her former partner, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.

Taking to social media, the architect and designer posted a series of images and videos from what appears to be Positano, showcasing picturesque coastal views, vibrant cliffside buildings and relaxed alfresco dining.


Ms Huang is likely visiting Italy for work and leisure, appearing to enjoy the region’s iconic scenery.

Her visit comes shortly after Banda Property, the luxury development firm founded by Mr Mapelli Mozzi, teased an upcoming project in Milan.

The company shared content with its large social media following, hinting at a new venture in the fashion capital, featuring footage of construction work alongside shots of the landmark Duomo di Milano.

The post was captioned: "Milano - Coming... VERY soon," signalling a major new development for the business.

However, the announcement coincided with a more challenging backdrop for Mr Mapelli Mozzi.

Reports recently emerged casting doubt over his potential inheritance of a historic Italian villa tied to his family.

A relative, Dario Mapelli Mozzi, publicly dismissed any suggestion that Edoardo or his sister could inherit the estate.

He told the Mail: "It would be impossible for Edo or his sister to inherit the villa, they have no share in it and there are other more legitimate heirs.

"I know who Edo is but I've never met him."

The property in question, once described as a grand residence, is now said to have fallen into serious disrepair, making any sale or restoration effort particularly difficult.

While some had speculated that Mr Mapelli Mozzi, given his experience in high-end property development, might take on the challenge of restoring the villa, those suggestions have now been firmly ruled out.

Despite this, his professional trajectory has remained strong.
