Fans rejoiced at the announcement from Buckingham Palace confirming that Princess Eugenie is expecting her third child. However, many keen observers noted a significant omission in the palace's statement that sparked curiosity.

The official announcement revealed that Eugenie, aged 36, and her husband Jack Brooksbank are set to welcome a new addition to their family this summer. It also mentioned that their two sons, August, 5, and Ernest, 2, are “excited” about the news. Additionally, the declaration included that the King has been informed and is pleased with the news.

What raised eyebrows was the absence of the customary phrase stating that the wider family is “delighted,” a sentiment expressed in past announcements regarding Eugenie and her sister.
