Princess Eugenie, 36, Stuns Netizens as She Reveals She Is Pregnant with Baby Number Three – Photos

She posted ten hearts, one baby emoji, and a photo that told the whole story before anyone could even ask. Now, royal fans have been sent into a flurry of joy by Princess Eugenie's latest Instagram — and this time, the news is very, very good, as the images below show.

Princess Eugenie, 36, is expecting her third child with husband Jack Brooksbank, she confirmed, with the baby due this summer.

The announcement arrived alongside an image from the princess's own Instagram: her two young sons crouched together on a garden path, heads bent over an ultrasound print.

Eugenie paired the image with a caption that needed nothing more:

In the photo, August, five, holds the scan in both hands while his little brother Ernest, in a blue Nike tracksuit, leans in close beside him.

The two boys are framed by a white fence and green hedging, entirely absorbed in the small black-and-white image between them. It is a simple composition, but one that quietly captures the scale of the moment.

In addition to Eugenie's announcement, Buckingham Palace's full statement confirmed:

This will be the couple's third child together. August Philip Hawke Brooksbank was born on 9 February 2021, while his younger brother, Ernest George Ronnie Brooksbank, turns three on 30 May. The announcement marks another step in the couple’s growing family, now preparing to welcome a fifth member.

The news was met with an outpouring of warmth from royal followers, many of whom admitted they had seen it coming.

"That was rather obvious in the recent pictures of her. Congratulations to the happy parents!" one fan wrote, combining recognition with celebration.

Another was equally unsurprised, "Obvious from photos last week but congratulations," reflecting a similar mix of anticipation and well wishes.

The wider family was on fans' minds too. "How very nice to hear....Fergie and Prince Andrew will be over the moon," one follower noted, shifting the focus beyond the couple themselves.

One comment carried a wry edge, "Ahh, it will be lovely for all of the family to gather at the christening. Oh wait…." a remark that stood slightly apart from the otherwise celebratory tone.

Most reactions, however, remained firmly positive, centering on the news itself and the image that accompanied it — a quiet, personal way of sharing what is, for the family, a significant milestone.

For now, that image continues to hold the focus: two little brothers in a sunlit garden, looking down at their new sibling’s first picture, unaware of the attention it has drawn.

It is a moment that feels both private and widely shared at once — and one that, as reflected in the photo below, marks the beginning of a new chapter for the growing family.
