In the United Kingdom, Princess Beatrice has announced she is expecting her second child with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, with the baby due in early spring. This joyful news comes amid family challenges, including Sarah Ferguson's health struggles and Prince Andrew's controversies. The late Queen Elizabeth II had previously gifted a mansion to Beatrice and her sister, Princess Eugenie, in 1997, but due to financial concerns, they never moved in, leading to its eventual sale. The proceeds from the sale were placed in a trust for the sisters. Beatrice's growing family now includes her three-year-old daughter Sienna and her stepson Wolfie, aged eight. The announcement was made public by Buckingham Palace, which confirmed that both families are delighted with the news.
