Princess Eugenie has made her first public appearance since announcing that she is expecting her third child. The royal was photographed in central London on Wednesday, with her baby bump visible as she prepared to welcome her new arrival this summer. The younger daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson appeared relaxed and radiant during the outing, just days after returning to social media with the family update. According to Hello Magazine, the new photos offer the first look at Eugenie since the pregnancy announcement was made earlier this week.

The London outing marked a fresh family moment for Eugenie, who is already a mother of two. Her latest pregnancy news adds another chapter to her life with husband Jack Brooksbank, as the couple prepare to expand their household once again. Dressed for a casual day in the city, she appeared comfortable and cheerful while out and about. The images quickly attracted interest because they arrived so soon after the palace confirmed the pregnancy, giving royal watchers an early glimpse of Eugenie as she enters the next stage of motherhood.
Third Baby for Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank
The couple are set to welcome their third child this summer, extending a family life that has largely stayed centered on their children. Eugenie and Jack have often kept their private world relatively low-key, sharing select milestones rather than constant updates. This latest announcement follows her second pregnancy news in 2023 and comes after years in which the pair have balanced royal ties with family routines. The timing also places Eugenie in another busy season for the royal family, with public appearances and personal milestones unfolding side by side.
Buckingham Palace Statement Omits Family Line
One element of the announcement stood out. As reported by Hello Magazine, the Buckingham Palace statement did not include the line that "Both families are delighted with the news," wording that appeared when Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi announced they were expecting their daughter Athena in 2024. A similar reference to family delight was also included when Eugenie’s second pregnancy was announced in 2023. This time, the message was shorter, and that difference prompted discussion around what had been left unsaid.
Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson Absent From Message
The missing phrase has led to questions about why the wording changed for this announcement. The report suggested the shorter statement may have been designed to avoid mentioning Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson directly, given the scrutiny surrounding Andrew’s links to Jeffrey Epstein in recent months. Even so, the main focus remains Eugenie’s growing family and the arrival expected this summer. Her latest appearance kept attention on that personal milestone, with the royal looking happy and at ease as she stepped out ahead of welcoming baby number three.
