Princess Eugenie is expecting her third child with husband Jack Brooksbank. Buckingham Palace confirmed on Monday that the couple are preparing to welcome another baby later this year.
The announcement was made through an official palace statement, which revealed that the couple’s sons, August and Ernest, are excited to become older brothers. King Charles III has also been informed of the news.

Eugenie later shared the announcement on Instagram alongside a family photograph featuring the couple with their children and an ultrasound scan. The post was captioned: “Baby Brooksbank due 2026!”
The news comes more than a decade after Eugenie and Brooksbank first met during a ski trip in 2010. The couple became engaged in Nicaragua in 2018 before marrying later that year at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle.
Their first son, August, was born in February 2021, while Ernest arrived in 2023. Both Eugenie and Brooksbank have continued working outside senior royal roles. Eugenie remains involved in the art world through her work with London gallery Hauser & Wirth, while Brooksbank has worked in branding and property development.

The announcement also comes amid continued public attention surrounding Prince Andrew and the wider York family. Despite the scrutiny, Eugenie has continued participating in charity initiatives, environmental campaigns and selected public engagements in recent years.
For the couple, the arrival of a third child marks another milestone in the family life they have built outside the structure of senior royal duties.
