In the world of royalty, the birth of a new little prince or princess is always a delightful occasion.
So, in an exciting new announcement, Princess Eugenie, daughter of the Duke and Duchess of York, has just revealed that she's welcomed her second baby boy.
Princess Eugenie, 33, and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, 37, welcomed their second child on 30 May, weighing a healthy 7lb 1oz (3.2kg).
The royal couple decided to name their newborn son Ernest George Ronnie Brooksbank.
Princess Eugenie also shared the sweet story behind their little bundle of joy on her social media account, adding a touch of familial sentiment to the occasion.
She wrote: ‘Jack and I wanted to share the news that we had our little boy, Ernest George Ronnie Brooksbank, on 30 May 2023, at 8:49, weighing 7.1lbs. He is named after his great-great-great grandfather, George, his Grandpa George, and my Grandpa Ronald.’
The princess also shared that their eldest child, two-year-old August, has stepped up as a loving big brother in the same social media post, uploading a cute photograph of August tenderly patting his baby brother on the head while he lay in his crib.
August Philip Hawke Brooksbank was born on February 9th, 2021, at the Portland Hospital in London. Princess Eugenie had a caesarean section due to her childhood scoliosis operation on her spine.
This joyous event comes during King Charles’ coronation year, just weeks after the grand ceremony.
Ernest is 13th in line to the throne, and notably, he is the first of Queen Elizabeth II's great-grandchildren born since Her Majesty's passing last September.
In the weeks leading up to her giving birth, Princess Eugenie has been spotted on multiple occasions, showcasing her radiant maternal glow while chatting with royal family admirers at the Coronation Big Lunch and with her sister Princess Beatrice in Buckinghamshire.
Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Princess Eugenie recently opened up about how motherhood has transformed her life.
She passionately discussed changing her behaviour at home to educate her son, August, with an awareness of environmental preservation and sustainability.
The young princess confessed that her new role as a mother had altered her perspectives and fears, stating: ‘I also think as a mother, you all of a sudden, totally you change, your hormones change, everything changes.
‘I'm scared of flying and things like that, and I would never be before,’ she continued.
We look forward to witnessing Ernest's journey alongside his proud parents, Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank, and his doting big brother, August. Best wishes to the growing royal family!
