Dara Huang and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi were previously engaged

Dara Huang, the ex-fiancée of Princess Beatrice's husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, made a humorous comment about her dating life following the news that her former partner is engaged.

The American architect lives in Chelsea and appears to be taking the development in her stride.


Her ex-partner, Filippos Kodellas de la Morena, recently announced his engagement to businesswoman and dentist Sofía Marti Marti.

Taking to her Instagram Stories, Huang offered advice to single women looking to meet men. "Just a small note for all you single ladies out there," she wrote.

"Go to Mayfair on a Friday at around 5 pm because it's 99 per cent men flooding pubs."

She accompanied her comment with a photograph showing a London pub filled with punters enjoying drinks in the sunshine.

Huang and Edoardo were previously engaged and share a nine-year-old son, Wolfie, before they split in 2018.

Their break-up came shortly before Edoardo's relationship with Princess Beatrice came to light.

Following this, Huang began dating Kodellas de la Morena, the son of a retired Greek diplomat and a "well-connected Spanish mother".

The pair reportedly met through mutual friends after he moved to London, but kept their relationship private.

The couple later separated, with Kodellas de la Morena now planning to marry someone else.

Kodellas de la Morena last month announced his engagement to Sofía Marti Marti, a businesswoman and dentist, according to Spanish magazine El Confidencial.

The couple plan to tie the knot this summer. They will host their nuptials in Spain, with two wedding registries in Seville and Madrid.

Kodellas de la Morena studied business administration and finance at Comillas Pontifical University before moving to the UK.

His bride-to-be, who is from Valencia, works in periodontics and is the founder of the Babuins shoe brand.

Despite Edoardo's relationship with Beatrice beginning shortly after his split from Huang, the trio maintains an excellent relationship.

Huang recently told Harper's Bazaar that Wolfie "has had two sets of parents trying to help him on both sides, adding '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," she said.

"It's all about your point of view. I don't understand people who are divorced and then hold their children as collateral."

The respect appears mutual, as Wolfie was included in Buckingham Palace's official announcement when Princess Beatrice was expecting last year.
