Princess Beatrice has been dating the divorcee, who has a son aged two, for two months.
The couple are believed to have enjoyed a string of dates and even went on holiday together.
Friends say the princess has also introduced Edoardo to the Duke and Duchess of York.
The princess and her new man have the same circle of friends and were introduced to each other through a mutual acquaintance.
They connected instantly and have a 'real laugh together'.

A friend told the Sun: '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.'
Edoardo is the stepson of Christopher Shale, a friend of former Prime Minister David Cameron who died at Glastonbury Festival in 2011

Beatrice met the divorcee a month before sister Eugenie's October 12 wedding.
He is her first boyfriend since she split from her partner of ten years American Dave Clark in 2016.
Clark, 33, is an Uber executive who married girlfriend Lynn Anderson in July.
Before him, she dated New Yorker Paolo Liuzzo at 17, who was her first love.
New boyfriend Edoardo is the stepson of Christopher Shale, a friend of former Prime Minister David Cameron who died at Glastonbury Festival in 2011.
He has a son called Wolfie from a previous relationship and is a cricket, dog and opera lover.
Friends say they wouldn't be surprised if the new couple got married 'within months', shortly after Princess Eugenie married Jack Brooksbank
Edoardo founded property consultancy Banda in 2007 and is said to specialise in finding and developing multi-million pound homes for rich clients.
His company, which means 'big shed' in Swahili, is known for being discreet in the services it offers.
When contacted by the Mail Online, the palace would not comment on the new relationship.
