"textContent": "\n\n\nEdoardo Mapelli Mozzi has been spotted eating lunch in Mayfair, just weeks after returning home from the US.\n\nPrincess Beatrice's husband of six years was tagged in an Instagram post showing a private “Lunch Club” event held at Cornus in London.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nCornus is a Michelin-starred restaurant in Belgravia close to Victoria Station, with its address listed as Eccleston Place within Eccleston Yards.\n\nIt opened in 2024 and is independently owned by David O’Connor and Joe Mercer Nairne, who also run the Chelsea restaurant Medlar.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nTRENDING\n\nStories\n\nVideos\n\nYour Say\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nThe images were shared by Lando Design and Build, a construction and refurbishment firm, on its Instagram story.\n\nLando Design and Build describes itself as a construction company focused on high-end residential and commercial work across London and Surrey.\n\nThe post showed a long table set for a group lunch with place cards, flowers and printed menus. Mr Mapelli Mozzi was included among a list of tagged accounts.\n\nThe 42-year-old is a property developer and the founder and chief executive of Banda.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nSeveral shots from inside the dining room could be seen, including wide-angle shots of guests seated along the table and close-ups of the table settings. A “thank you to you all” message was placed over the collage.\n\nThe lunch appearance comes after Mr Mapelli Mozzi was recently seen in the United States on a work trip.\n\nIn late January, Mr Mapelli Mozzi posted images on Instagram indicating he was in Florida, including a photograph with the on-screen location label “Miami Garage”.\n\nMore recently, Mr Mapelli Mozzi appeared in a montage-style video following the US trip.\n\n### LATEST ROYAL DEVELOPMENTS\n\n\n\n\n * Royal Family support for pubs hailed a ‘very good move’ amid national concern\n * Catherine's favourite designers to take centre stage at London Fashion Week\n * King climate work hailed as ‘extremely significant’ amid Harry comparison\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nMr Mapelli Mozzi's restaurant images suggest he has continued with business and social engagements despite the fresh controversy surrounding his wider family and the Jeffrey Epstein files.\n\nHis wife, Princess Beatrice, 37, has been drawn into renewed scrutiny linked to Epstein through newly released emails by the US Department of Justice.\n\nOne email included a discussion of a 2011 phone call involving Sarah Ferguson and journalist Geordie Greig, with Beatrice described as being present during the call.\n\nMs Ferguson appeared to write to her spokesman, James Henderson, and Epstein: \"After I hung up from our call with Geordie. Beatrice and I had a discussion and we agreed it was important to call Geordie back and make sure he understood the severity of NOT making a mistake and getting it wrong about Jeffrey, because he was sent to prison for sexual offending, but that he had done his penence and was out of jail and moving on with his life.\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nBeing named in the Epstein files is not an indication of misconduct.\n\nMs Ferguson and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor have always denied any wrongdoing.\n\nGB News has contacted Ms Ferguson and Princess Beatrice's representatives for comment.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards:The GB News Editorial Charter **",
