That’s what made it the happiest day.

.. seeing the people around me smile, especially my dad.

'And every mom knows that nothing makes them happier than their children happy. I feel so lucky to have so much love around me #blessed Thank you God.' Her post comes after the architect shared a glimpse into her 'great American summer' with her son on Instagram.

Posting an array of images of herself and Wolfie in Oconomowoc, Wisconsin , Dara said in the caption, 'country livin' having a great American summer' before asking her 66,000 followers: 'What are you doing this summer?' In one picture, the mother and son duo are stood posing with their arms up as Wolfie enthusiastically threw a scarf up into the air. Elsewhere, the architect shared snaps of Wolfie playing mini golf, swimming in a lake, and playing outside. The pair appear to be staying in a luxury Lakehouse, with Wolfie taking full advantage of the freshwater swimming and backyard swing.

Dara also shared videos of her 'great American summer', with Wolfie looking particularly pleased in one where he is making homemade pizza. In a different clip, Wolfie is seen leaping into the lake as Dara recorded him from the sidelines.

Christopher 'Wolfie' Mapelli Mozzi was born on 28 March 2016. Dara and Edo chose to go their separate ways two years later, in 2018. Edo and Beatrice are parents to three-year-old Sienna Elizabeth Mapelli Mozzi, and co-parent 'Wolfie' with Dara and her current partner.

Wolfie made his first appearance at a royal engagement last December at the Together At Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey alongside Prince George, Princess Charlotte , and Prince Louis . Dara was born and grew up in America, where her maternal grandfather had emigrated from Taiwan. She was granted British citizenship last year.

Speaking about the co-parenting dynamic between herself and her former fiancé, Dura said she is glad her eight -year-old son has 'two sets of parents trying to help him on both sides'. Dara said in the caption: ' Thank you everybody for the beautiful birthday wishes. I cannot have had a better day!' Dara added: 'It's all about your point of view.

I don't understand people who are divorced and then hold their children as collateral; that doesn't make any sense. It's about creating a happy home and lifestyle.' She told Harper's Bazaar: 'Wolfie has had two sets of parents trying to help him on both sides, and I just think, 'The more, the merrier.

' 'I feel lucky to have such positive people around him, who really embrace him – because it didn't have to be so easy.' Dara, a Harvard-educated architect who grew up in Florida, has an undergraduate degree from the University of Florida and transferred to the Ivy League school for her Masters in Architecture. She now lives in Chelsea, west London.

It comes after Dara revealed she helped design Margot Robbie 's 'dream office' with furniture from her brand. The American architect took to Instagram to share a selection of snaps with the Barbie actress, 34, who she described as her 'girl crush'. The mother-of-one said Robbie, who recently announced she is expecting with husband Tom Ackerley , was the 'perfect client' and thanked her for supporting a 'female led business and supply chain '.

The architect runs a luxury brand, Dara Maison, which Margot used to decorate her renovated home office in presumably her Los Angeles home. Taking to Instagram, Dara wrote: It's an honour helping @margotrobbieofficial team design her dream house or in this case, Barbie's dream office with our furniture from @dara maison. 'Thank you for being a girl's girl and supporting female led businesses and supply chains.

'We couldn't have thought a more perfect client to represent our dreams of hard work, perseverance and now work-life, family balance. Go working mommies!' Dara shared a selection of snaps with the Wolf of Wall Street actress, including selfies and a monochrome image showing her engaged in a deep chat with Margot. The architect donned a £569 V-Neck printed chiffon plunge dress from London-based fashion label, Badley Store, for the occasion.
