The duo, spotted strolling across a Kenyan beach in January 2019, also have a shared connection to philanthropy. Along with Banda, a property and design business he founded in 2007 while still in his early twenties, Edo, as he’s known to pals, also created Cricket Builds Hope, a charity that uses the British game as a tool for positive social change in Rwanda.
As a royal, Beatrice is the patron to a handful of organizations, including the Helen Arkell Dyslexia Centre, which helped her deal with the affliction in her teenage years. But she’s also attached herself to the Be Cool, Be Nice campaign against cyberbullying—an area she’s doubtlessly well-versed in—and co-founded Big Change, an organization aimed at promoting youth projects, with friends Sam Branson and Holly Branson (the offspring of billionaire business magnate Richard Branson).
Both halves of the couple are also a soft touch when it comes to their family. While Mossi shares his one-bedroom London flat (so innovative it was featured in House & Garden) with Christopher Woolf, his 4-year-old son (referred to as Woolfie) with architect ex-fiancée Dara Huang, Beatrice has dedicated a fair amount of her public remarks to gushing about her kin.
