Reports suggest that Paolo had been battling personal demons for some time. His legal troubles included a 2009 arrest in Australia for cocaine possession.
His death certificate, which cites his residence as an apartment building near the citizenM hotel, also notes he was single at the time of his passing and worked as an art industry consultant.
Beatrice, was just 17 when she first dated Paolo back in 2005. Their relationship had come into the public eye during a family ski trip to Verbier, Switzerland, in 2006.
It was Beatrice who ended their relationship, and she spent much of her 20s with Uber executive Dave Clark before marrying Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, a multi-millionaire property developer, in 2020.
The couple has since welcomed a daughter, Sienna, expanding their family. Edoardo also has a son, Wolfie, to whom Beatrice is a proud step-mother.
Beatrice and Edoardo began dating in 2018, having known one another since childhood through their parents' friendship. The property mogul proposed to the Princess in Italy in 2019 and they were originally due to marry at the Chapel Royal at St James's Palace in May 2020.
However, the COVID-19 pandemic meant the couple had to postpone their plans and they later tied the knot in a private ceremony at the Royal Chapel of All Saints in Windsor on 17 July 2020, with Beatrice wearing a remodelled version of one of the late Queen's Norman Hartnell gowns.
