Princess Eugenie ignores Andrew drama as she marks family milestone with new pictures
Princess Eugenie shared a new post on social media
Princess Eugenie has marked yet another family milestone this week, leaving her father, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s, drama behind. The younger daughter of the former Duke and Duchess of York celebrated her second child’s third birthday this weekend.
On Saturday, Ernest Brooksbank turned three. It was his last birthday as the youngest child in the household, as his mum is expected to give birth this summer to her third child. Late on Saturday evening, Eugenie took to her Instagram account to share a set of previously unseen photographs with Ernest, including one of him with her and another one with his older brother, August.
The princess captioned her post: “Happy 3rd birthday to my tiger loving, hat wearing, constantly hugging, fearless golden boy Ernie.
It comes as Eugenie is facing a challenging period following her parents’ humiliation due to their links to convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
The princess has kept a low profile since last year but broke her silence earlier this month when she announced that she is pregnant for the third time.
Elsewhere, reports claimed Eugenie has been “quietly dropped” from a major position at King Charles’s Foundation.
The King’s niece became a mentor of young creatives selected by the King’s Foundation as part of its new initiative to celebrate the charity’s 35th anniversary last year.
The reason behind Eugenie’s exit from the role is uncertain, with reports’ claims varying.
Mr Hardcastle said: “Appointing her, the King was ‘strongly advised’ by aides that he should keep his support for AMW’s daughters a private matter.
“But, like his mother, His Majesty doesn’t like to be told what to do.”
Meanwhile, Hello! magazine claimed that Eugenie’s role only lasted a year because the initiative was formed as part of the charity’s anniversary year, “meaning the network naturally came to an end”.
