Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi ‘likes’ future King’s military post amid ongoing royal tensions
Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, husband of Princess Beatrice, has stunned royal watchers with an unexpected show of support for Prince William following the Prince of Wales’ latest high-profile military engagement.
The property developer, who married Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson’s eldest daughter in 2020, liked a post shared by Kensington Palace showing William in full military gear during a NATO training exercise in Estonia. The image captured the future King riding in a Challenger 2 tank, just 90 miles from the Russian border.
The post, which read, “Training alongside the Mercian Regiment in Estonia, honing vital skills for operations in extreme conditions”, was praised for highlighting the UK's commitment to European security. William’s presence at the NATO base aimed to reassure allies amid ongoing global tensions.
Edoardo’s quiet endorsement—through a simple social media ‘like’—was seen by some as a surprising public gesture, especially given ongoing speculation about divisions within the royal family, particularly between William and Harry.
Known for his active presence on Instagram, Edoardo regularly shares glimpses into his personal and professional life with his 164,000 followers. He notably used the platform to announce the birth of his and Beatrice’s second daughter, adding to his reputation for using social media to subtly engage with royal moments.
Though brief, his latest online gesture did not go unnoticed—and has left fans wondering whether it signals deeper loyalty within royal circles.
