Are Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson attending their granddaughter's christening, where is it?

Princess Beatrice and her husband Edo Mapelli Mozzi’s youngest daughter is being baptised.

Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank are amongst the royals attending the christening of Princess Beatrice and husband Edo Mapelli Mozzi’s youngest daughter. The couple’s first daughter Sienna Elizabeth was born on September 18, 201 at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital.

After Sienna Elizabeth’s birth, Princess Beatrice said: "We are delighted to share that we have named our daughter Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi.

"We are all doing well and Wolfie [Mr Mapelli Mozzi's son from another relationship] is the best big brother to Sienna."

Edo Mapelli Mozzi said: "Our life together has just begun, and I can't wait to see all the amazing things that await us.

"Feeling so much love and gratitude for my amazing wife, baby Sienna and Wolfie. These are the days I never want to forget. This week, a friend said to me the sweetest saying… that with every child you grow a whole new heart."

Before Edo Mapelli Mozzi married Princess Beatrice, he was engaged to Dara Huang, the mother of their son, Christopher Woolf Mapeli Mozzi, known as ‘Wolfie.’ Princess Beatrice and Edoardo married in the pandemic so had a small low-key ceremony at The Royal Chapel of All Saints at Royal Lodge in Windsor on July 17, 2020. Edoardo’s son Wolfie was ‘best man’ and both the late Queen and Prince Philip attended.

In January of this year, it was revealed that Princess Beatrice had given birth to the couple’s second daughter Athena, who weighed 4lb 5oz, and was born several weeks prematurely. She was born on January 22, 2025 at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London.

Princess Beatrice told British Vogue that “Following routine scans we became aware our precious cargo needed close monitoring, and understood we needed to prepare for an early arrival. What I learnt in this process has been humbling: understanding so much more about our remarkable human bodies, but also, more than anything, what we don’t know.”

Princess Beatrice also said: “She was so tiny it took more than a few weeks for the tears of relief to dry and for life with our healthy baby to feel real. Her feet were so small – almost the same size as the paws on one of my older daughter’s soft bunnies.”

Are Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson attending Athena’s christening?

Princess Beatrice’s daughter Athena’s christening is taking place at Chapel Royal at St James's Palace in London. A source told the Daily Mail that “It's going to be a royal occasion but everyone is dreading the thought of seeing Andrew there.”

An insider also told the Daily Mail that “Beatrice has, of course invited her father. But things are not warm between them. However, she's worried about him.

“He's going through a low ebb with his mental health and she recognises that he dotes on his grandchildren and it would be cruel to deprive him of the chance to attend the christening.

“Some careful conversations and diplomacy with King Charles will have taken place to get to this stage.”

It is believed that both Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson are attending the event.
