Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, are set to welcome their third child this summer.
Buckingham Palace is said to be ‘delighted’ with the news, which will give the couple’s sons, August, 5, and Ernest, 2, a younger sibling – and they marked the occasion with an adorable snap.
In a photograph shared by Eugenie, 36, Ernest, wearing a Chelsea football kit, and August, wearing a long-sleeved grey t-shirt, can be seen holding a picture of a baby scan.
In a statement, Buckingham Palace said: ‘Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie and Mr Jack Brooksbank are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their third child together, due this summer.
‘August (aged five) and Ernest (aged two) are also very excited to have another sibling join the family. His Majesty The King has been informed and is delighted with the news.’
The baby, who will not be an HRH, will be born 15th in line to the throne, with their great uncle, the Duke of Edinburgh, moving down to 16th place.

He or she will also be the 15th great-grandchild of the late Queen Elizabeth II, and the third to be born since her death in 2022.
The new arrival will be the fifth grandchild of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, following the birth of Princess Beatrice’s daughter Athena Mapelli Mozzi in January last year.
In February, it was reported that Princess Eugenie cut contact with her father over his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
A source close to the royals told the Mail: ‘There is no contact at all, nothing. It’s Brooklyn Beckham level – she has completely cut him off.
‘Beatrice is trying to walk the fine line of not cutting her father off and yet remaining close with the Royal Family,’ the source said.
‘They aren’t exactly in regular and close contact at the moment, but Eugenie isn’t trying to walk that line. She’s not speaking to him.’
Princess Beatrice, on the other hand, had her father attend her daughter’s christening earlier this year.
