However, after the forthcoming ceremony was thwarted by Prince Andrew’s alleged involvement in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, the couple was forced to cancel their big day due to the perils posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
People reported that Princess Beatrice and Edoardo have agreed to call the whole thing off as the world faces a health crisis. A royal insider, however, claimed that the pair has yet to decide as to how or when they will reschedule their much-awaited wedding ceremony.
It remains to be seen, as well, if Princess Eugenie’s sister and her fiancée would consider making huge changes or rearrangements for the event.
Though neither Princess Beatrice nor Edoardo Mapelli-Mozzi has confirmed anything as of yet, Woman’s Day Australia, in its upcoming April 27, 2020 issue, claimed that the couple, now, wants a “show-stopping” wedding to boost the monarchy’s moral.
A source even told the entertainment news publication that Beatrice wants to have a huge event just like that of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s wedding.
“She’s changed her mind completely. Forget the small chapel wedding followed by a garden party. Bea’s got her heart set on a ceremony at St George’s Chapel, and then a party at the Lodge with the whole shebang: a five-course meal, lavish cocktails and a blinder of an afterparty,” an unnamed source said.
“The Queen is supporting this because she agrees with Beatrice. People will want a royal wedding after everything the nation and the world have been through. There’s no doubt Beatrice would also have it in mind that her wedding would be compared to all the others, especially Harry and Meghan’s. She’s sick of playing the sidekick,” another tipster claimed.
Both Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli-Mozzi have yet to comment on these reports. However, with Woman’s Day’s reputation for creating stories based on the claims of its unreliable and anonymous sources, this could be another work of fiction waiting to be quashed.
So, avid followers of the royal pair should take these unverified reports lightly until everything is proven true and correct.
Meanwhile, a separate People shared that, just days since she officially postponed her wedding, the elder daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson appeared in a clip for the Helen Arkell Dyslexia Charity to present how the charitable organization has been giving aid and support amid the coronavirus outbreak. For starters, Princess Beatrice was diagnosed with dyslexia when she was seven years old.
