Christopher “Wolfie” Mapelli Mozzi was born on March 28, 2016. Dara and Edo decided to go their separate ways two years later in 2018.
Edo and Beatrice are parents to three-year-old Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi and co-parent Wolfie with Dara and her current partner.
Wolfie made his first appearance on a royal engagement last December at the Together At Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey alongside Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
Dara was born and raised in the United States, where her maternal grandfather had emigrated from Taiwan. She was granted British citizenship last year.
Speaking about the co-parenting dynamic between her and her ex-fiancé, Dura said she’s glad her eight-year-old son has “two sets of parents trying to help him on both sides.”
Dara said in the caption: ‘Thank you all for the lovely birthday wishes. Couldn’t have had a better day!’
Dara added: “It all depends on one’s point of view. I don’t understand people who get divorced and then have their children as collateral – that doesn’t make any sense. The important thing is to create a happy home and lifestyle.”
She told Harper’s Bazaar: ‘Wolfie has had two sets of parents trying to help him from both sides, and I just think, ‘The more the merrier.’
“I feel lucky to have such positive people around me, who really accept it, because it didn’t have to be that easy.”

It comes after Dara revealed that he helped design Margot Robbie’s ‘dream office’ using furniture from his brand.
The American architect took to Instagram to share a selection of snaps with the 34-year-old Barbie actress, whom she described as her “favourite girl”.
The mother-of-one said Robbie, who recently announced she is pregnant with husband Tom Ackerley, was the “perfect customer” and thanked her for supporting a “female-led business and supply chain”.
The architect runs a luxury brand, Dara Maison, which Margot used to decorate her renovated home office, presumably in her Los Angeles home.
On Instagram, Dara wrote: It’s an honour to help the @margotrobbieofficial team design their dream home, or in this case, Barbie’s dream office with our @dara maison furniture.
‘Thank you for being a girl among women and supporting women-led businesses and supply chains.
“We couldn’t have thought of a more perfect client to represent our dreams of hard work, perseverance, and now work-life balance. Go working moms!”
Dara shared a selection of snaps with the Wolf of Wall Street actress, including selfies and a monochrome image showing her deep in conversation with Margot.
For the occasion, the architect wore a printed chiffon V-neck dress by London fashion brand Badley Store, which cost 569 pounds.
