Princess Beatrice and husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi’s secret overseas trip without children revealed

Princess Beatrice and her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi have been on a discreet overseas trip this week. 

It seems the royal couple travelled to Sweden’s capital city, Stockholm, for the prestigious Brilliant Minds Foundation conference, an exclusive annual gathering known for bringing together some of the world’s most influential creative minds. 

Adding a touch of star power to the event, Grammy-winning artist John Legend entertained attendees. 

Edoardo, the 41-year-old property developer, couldn’t resist sharing a glimpse of the performance, posting footage on social media showing the musician captivating the audience with his 2013 pop ballad All of Me.

Princess Beatrice clearly has a strong affinity for the foundation, as this isn’t her first time attending; she has previously participated in the conferences in both 2019 and 2024. 

Last year, Beatrice attended in her role as the founder of BY-EQ, an advisory organisation focused on emotional intelligence in an age of artificial intelligence. She also serves as the vice president of partnerships and strategy at Afiniti, a software company. 

Royal duties

In recent years, Princess Beatrice and her sister Princess Eugenie have taken on greater royal responsibilities in the wake of the late Queen Elizabeth II’s death.
