Princess Beatrice flaunts baby bump at Wimbledon with husband Edoardo Mozzi
Wimbledon crowds were treated to a rare glimpse of pregnant Princess Beatrice as she watched Ash Barty make history from the Royal Box.
Princess Beatrice made a rare public appearance since announcing her pregnancy, taking in the tennis from the Royal Box with her growing baby bump on display.
The younger daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, 32, wore a chic white and black polka dot dress with balloon sleeves, placing her hands over her bump in photos beside husband Edoardo Mozzi.
The soon-to-be parents watched on as Aussie gun Ash Barty, the world women’s number one, beat former champion Angelique Kerber for a place in Sunday’s final. Barty became the first Australian woman to make the Wimbledon final since Evonne Goolagong Cawley achieved the feat in 1980.
Among the star-studded British crowd was also Doctor Who actress Billie Piper, 38, and The Pursuit of Love star Dominic West, 51.

Buckingham Palace announced Beatrice’s pregnancy in May with a statement that read: “Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are very pleased to announce that they are expecting a baby in autumn of this year.
“The Queen has been informed and both families are delighted with the news.”

Beatrice is already stepmother to Edoardo’s four-year-old son Christopher Woolf.
The pair married in July last year in a secret ceremony at Windsor with Beatrice wearing a vintage wedding dress on loan from her grandmother, the Queen.
They tied the knot at the Royal Chapel of All Saints, where the Queen and her late husband Prince Philip were isolating amid the pandemic.
It came after she was forced to cancel her May 29 wedding scheduled to have 150 guests in favour of a smaller ceremony in keeping with social distancing guidelines.
Edoardo and Beatrice’s baby will be the Queen’s 12th great grandchild following the birth of sister Eugenie’s son August, Zara Tindall’s son Lucas and Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s daughter Lillibet
In addition to being a multi-millionaire real estate tycoon, Beatrice’s husband is also an Italian Count, meaning their child is entitled to inherit the honorific of Cont or Nobile Donna depending on the baby’s sex, according to Cosmo UK.
