Princess Beatrice and her husband, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, made a rare public appearance with their three children at the victory parade in London, celebrating England’s women’s soccer team, the Lionesses, after their triumphant win at the UEFA Women’s EURO 2025. This event, which took place near Buckingham Palace, highlighted the family’s pride in the soccer team’s accomplishments.
The couple’s daughters, Sienna Elizabeth, 3, and Athena Elizabeth Rose, who is just 6 months old, were present alongside Edo’s son from a previous relationship, Christopher Woolf, 9. During the festivities, Edo appeared fully engaged in fatherhood, carrying baby Athena in a front-facing carrier while Princess Beatrice was seen tenderly checking on her.
While Wolfie has joined his family at other royal events, such as Christmas gatherings, Sienna and Athena have generally remained out of the public eye, reflecting Beatrice’s desire to protect her children’s privacy. The family was visibly excited as they celebrated this significant moment in women’s sports.
Beatrice and Edo marked a personal milestone themselves, having recently celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary. The birth of Athena earlier this year came with challenges, as Beatrice shared in British Vogue that her pregnancy was marked by worry and the need for early preparations, emphasizing her determination to raise awareness about preterm birth complications.
The royal family’s support for the team’s success was widespread, with Beatrice’s cousin, Prince William, and his daughter, Princess Charlotte, also attending the finals in Switzerland. Furthermore, Princess Eugenie shared her excitement on social media following the win and King Charles conveyed his congratulations, noting the team’s inspiring journey and the importance of their victory.
This celebratory occasion not only highlights the family’s close ties and involvement in sports but also serves as a reminder of the importance of resilience and teamwork that transcends the realm of sport. The enthusiastic support for women’s sports and the Lionesses sets a positive example for future generations.
