Princess Beatrice’s stepson is just eight years old but it seems he is already taking after his artistic parents as his mother revealed in a new interview that she sold his handmade creation for a mind-blowing price.
Christopher Woolf (or Woolfie as he is affectionately known), is the son of the royal’s husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, and his ex-partner Dara Huang.

Wolfie’s artistic side
It isn’t the first time that Wolfie has shown his artistic side. In a photo shared with her 75,000 Instagram followers, Dara showed her son getting stuck into her home renovation efforts as he stood on a ladder to reach the top of an easel.

Like (step)mother like son
