Princess Beatrice has reportedly been resting at her £3.5 million country Cotswolds home as she awaits the birth of her second child this spring.
The 36-year-old daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson announced in October that she was expecting her second child with her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.
The new arrival will be a brother or sister to daughter Sienna, who they welcomed in 2021, but Beatrice also has a stepson, Christopher Woolf, known as Wolfie, from Edoardo’s previous relationship with his ex, Dara Huang.
The couple are reportedly splitting their time between their London apartment at St James’s Palace and the lavish country home in a quaint village in the Cotswolds.
Purchased in late 2021, the Cotswolds home has six bedrooms and numerous reception rooms, which are perfect for hosting Royal Family members, and there is even a guesthouse separate from the property.
The farmhouse offers numerous extravagant features, including an outdoor swimming pool and tennis courts and the couple has installed a six-foot security fence around their property for privacy.
Realestate.com.au reports Edoardo’s parents also have a home in the Cotswolds, so they can spend time with their grandchildren too.
Beatrice’s parents, Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew, are close by, less than two hours away by car at Royal Lodge in Windsor.
The farmhouse is reportedly based near Blenheim Palace, which is a World Heritage Site that used to be the home of the Duke of Marlborough and his family. It is situated just outside the village of Woodstock in Oxfordshire.
To mark the announcement they were expecting a second child, the family released two new photos. One picture shows Sienna, with a red bow in her blonde hair, walking hand-in-hand with her dad and big brother, Wolfie, down a country lane.
Buckingham Palace previously announced the news: “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.”
Princess Beatrice, the eldest daughter of Sarah Ferguson and Andrew, married Italian businessman and property developer, Edoardo, in 2020.
