The mother of Princess Beatrice’s stepson provided a rare insight into her family life and support network.
Princess Beatrice, 36, is the mother of three-year-old daughter Sienna with her husband of four years, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.
However, she is also a stepmother to her partner’s son Wolfie, whom he shares with American architect Dara Huang.
In an interview with The Wick published on Monday, the interior designer opened up about juggling work with raising her eight-year-old son.
The mother of one revealed that “a good team” is crucial to balancing her property work and running the furniture brand Dara Maison with raising Wolfie.
Huang added that “great people that surround and support” the architect to keep her going.
It has been well documented that Princess Beatrice forms an important part of that team.
Huang has previously spoken about Beatrice’s input into raising her eight-year-old son.
In an interview with Harper’s Bazaar UK, the Design Haus Liberty founder said: “Wolfie has had two sets of parents trying to help him on both sides, and I just think, ‘The more, the merrier’.
“I feel lucky to have such positive people around him, who really embrace him — because it didn’t have to be so easy.”
The co-founder of Vivahouse also revealed her thoughts on creating seamless blended families.
She explained: “It’s all about your point of view.

“I don’t understand people who are divorced and then hold their children as collateral; that doesn’t make any sense.
“It’s about creating a happy home and lifestyle.”
Huang first spoke publicly about her relationship with Prince Andrew’s daughter in 2019 when the Princess of York and Edoardo announced their engagement.
In an official statement, she said: “I wish the best for Edo and Beatrice and look forward to uniting our families.”
