It was an official BP announcement but the timing is getting remarked on in the media. Of course several of the BRF are out and about on engagements as well today.

I don't think anyone in the family cares as much as the media projects them to. I understand the Yorks and the Sussexes are on good terms in any case. Official announcements are good.

By the time Beatrice gives birth the Queen will have 5 great-grandsons and 6 great-granddaughters, so, just for the sake of balance I hope for a baby boy!

Congratulations to Beatrice and Edoardo! That is happy news indeed, though I'm not overly surprised. When they had their pandemic wedding last year, I thought that they didn't want to postpone their family planning till after the pandemic. The Queen must be delighted to have another great-grandchild on the way. And a same-age cousin for little August must also be wonderful for the York sisters.

Beatrice turns 33 in early August, no reason for postponing maternity.

This news isn’t about Harry and Meghan, so lets’s keep them out of this thread. Any further off-topic comments will be deleted.

This is happy news! I’m sure the family is delighted, and it will be fun for Beatrice and Eugenie to have children similar in age.

Giving birth is not the only way to be a mother and Being a stepmother does not necessarily mean you are less of a mother or don’t consider the child your own just not biologically.
They already have a precious child in their lives. He is Edos’s biologically is all.

Wolfie also might have other half siblings through his mother, down the road.

Family is not always put together and bonded solely by blood relation. If that was the case, I wouldn't have had anyone to call "family" when I was growing up. Being adopted at 3 weeks old always gave me that extra special zing to life that it's allowed to "adopt" as family, any one you choose to. There are such things that are so dear to us that can be called "other mothers" "sisters by choice" and such and to be honest, that makes the best families ever.
Weirdest thing I've ever had was an adopted biological mom. Turns out I wasn't the child she gave up for adoption but through her, I was able to understand the necessity and sometimes even the great love it took for someone to give up a child for adoption. But that's another story.

No, i don't agree. Beatrice obviously loves Wolfie and he is part of her family with Edoardo but he is not her's. His mother is Dara Huang.
Beatrice's child will be hers and Edoardo's own addition to their existing family.

I was too (based on her leaving the quire at the end of the service IIRC) but we aren't allowed to speculate here, so I refrained from doing so (and read only one message here at TRF about it).

It would be another thing if for example, Wolfie's mother had died at his birth and he wouldn't have remembered her, but Wolfie has a loving mother and the word "mummy" is reserved for her.
