Princess Beatrice gets a new title after the royal wedding.

[Princess Beatrice will marry Italian nobleman and financier Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi in May. And Beatrice will also have a new title, People reports (opens in new tab). The son of Count Alessandro Mappelli Mozzi, Mappelli Mozzi shares his father's Italian title, so Beatrice will become a "Contessa" after the marriage. In addition, she will have a palace of her own: since Edoardo is Alessandro's eldest son, he will inherit the Villa Mappelli Mozzi, built in the 18th century in Bergamo, northern Italy. (According to Google Images, it is very large and very beautiful.)

Princess Eugenie, Beatrice's sister, was not given a new title when she married wine merchant Jack Brooksbank in 2018. This is because Brooksbank has no title. According to People, she now goes by "Princess Eugenie, Mrs. Jack Brooksbank."

In February, the royal family revealed on Instagram that Beatrice and Eduardo will be married in the Chapel Royal at St. James's Palace and that the queen herself (Beatrice's grandmother) will host the reception in the gardens of Buckingham Palace (open in new tab). This sounds very posh, as you might expect!
