The eldest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson made her Wimbledon debut on July 14, 2023, at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club, sporting a lovely pink ensemble reminiscent of the iconic Barbie doll.
In the Royal Box, Princess Beatrice was accompanied by her husband Eduardo Mapelli-Mozzi and her relative Lady Helen Taylor. Although surrounded by family, Beatrice appeared to only have eyes for Eduardo as they shared giggles and jokes, their body language mirroring each other.
The couple seemed smitten and in high spirits, which comes as no surprise as they celebrated their third wedding anniversary just a few days later.
Reports suggest that as an extravagant anniversary gift, the couple will own a property in the Cotswolds, considered to be one of the most expensive presents they have received. Princess Beatrice and Eduardo currently have a grace and favor home at St James's Palace in London, a royal property owned by King Charles and leased to family members as a favor.
Other members of the royal family, such as Princess Anne (72) and Princess Alexandra (86), also have grace and favor homes at St James's Palace.
Beatrice and Eduardo, who reside in a four-bedroom apartment at the London Palace, previously lived in the same apartment during Beatrice's university years when she studied history at Goldsmiths University, sharing it with her younger sister, Princess Eugenie.
However, in late 2021, Beatrice and Eduardo reportedly purchased a manor home in the Cotswolds in Gloucestershire for £3.5 million. Since they are not working members of the royal family, their decision to leave St James's Palace and move into a private residence makes perfect sense.
The princess and her family have been busy renovating the farmhouse on their new property, including converting an outhouse into a guest house. Additionally, they have expressed a desire for a party barn and installed a six-foot-high security gate for their safety concerns. The Sun reported these details, shedding light on the couple's plans and efforts to create a comfortable and secure home in the Cotswolds.
