Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi is heartbroken over the death of his grandmother-in-law Queen Elizabeth . The day after Her Majesty’s passing, Princess Beatrice ’s husband shared a moving tribute to the late monarch on Instagram. Alongside photos of the Queen, Edo wrote, “Incredibly hard to process the last 24 hours.”
“What an incredible woman and extraordinary mark she’s left on the entire world. She was the rock on which modern Britain was built,” he continued. “Feeling very lucky that our little ones got to spend wonderful time with her this summer. Rest is Peace Your Majesty. We will miss you so much. Brokenhearted 💔.”
Edo included a picture of Her Majesty and Prince Philip from his and Beatrice’s 2020 wedding. Queen Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh were among the guests at the private ceremony held at the Royal Chapel of All Saints at Royal Lodge, Windsor. The bride wore one of her grandmother’s vintage dresses for the special occasion.
Princess Beatrice and her husband honored the Queen last year with their daughter Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi ’s middle name. Edo is also a father to son Christopher Woolf, also known as “Wolfie,” from a previous relationship. In his tribute on Thursday, Edo shared that their “little ones got to spend wonderful time” with the Queen this summer.
Queen Elizabeth passed away peacefully on Sept. 8. Beatrice’s father Prince Andrew traveled to Balmoral, where the monarch died, on Thursday with Prince William, Prince Edward and Sophie, Countess of Wessex . In a statement following the Queen’s passing, King Charles III, formerly known as the Prince of Wales, said: “The death of my beloved Mother, Her Majesty The Queen, is a moment of the greatest sadness for me and all members of my family.”
