The first known boyfriend of Princess Beatrice of York, Paolo Liuzzo, has been found dead at the age of 41 inside a hotel room in Miami from a suspected overdose. According to British media, the socialite had suffered a long battle against drugs, gambling and violence.
In Liuzzo's life story there are dark chapters since he was dating Prince Andrew's eldest daughter, now disgraced due to the Epstein case. Beatriz, who is now 35 years old and is married to Edoardo Mapelli, began dating Liuzzo in 2005, when she was 17 years old and he was 24. Despite the age difference, their parents approved of the relationship and face the gallery Everything went smoothly until the princess was forced to end the romance.
Beatriz left Liuzzo after it was discovered that he had violated his bail conditions on charges related to the death of a student in New York. Although Liuzzo was always honest with the princess about her past and her background, that news was too much for Elizabeth II's granddaughter.
After that scandalous breakup, Liuzzo managed to keep the press away from his life, and, as friends of his have assured the British media, in recent years he had been fighting against gambling and drugs and, according to The Sun, he had accumulated debts with various lenders in his spiral of addictions.
Beatriz's ex-boyfriend originally came from Woodbury, New York, and grew up on Long Island. According to his Linkedin profile, he was the owner of DNC Productions LLC and lived in Miami, where she sometimes attended art gallery exhibitions.
Apparently, this violation of his probation had occurred during a ski trip to an exclusive resort in Verbier in Switzerland, with Beatriz's parents. As a result, he was brought back to the United States, where American courts extended his probation period to three years as punishment, forcing Beatrice to end her affair in 2006.
