Buckingham Palace released a statement saying Princess Eugenie and Mr. Jack Brooksbank are pleased to be expecting another child this summer, noting that August and Ernest are excited to welcome a sibling and that His Majesty the King has been informed and is delighted.
Eugenie and her sister Beatrice were born to Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson and retain their royal titles. Their children are born into the line of succession but do not carry royal titles and are being raised largely out of the public eye. The palace news follows earlier changes to Prince Andrew’s royal status in 2025 and subsequent developments that remain under public discussion.
