A friend told The Sun: “Beatrice and Edo have the same circle of friends and were introduced through a mutual chum.
“They hit it off instantly and have a real laugh together. They’ve been on holiday together and Beatrice introduced him to Fergie and her dad. Things are moving very quickly and it wouldn’t surprise anyone if they got engaged within a short period of time.
“They could even be tying the knot in 2019 — it’s already been discussed by her friends.
“Everyone is thrilled that Bea is so happy and in such a good place right now.”
And the couple have enjoyed a string of cosy dates.
Beatrice had been single since splitting from her American boyfriend Dave Clark in 2016 after a decade together.
