Andrew Mountbatten Windsor’s daughter, Princess Eugenie, has announced the birth of her third child on Tuesday. “Jack and I are so excited to announce Baby Girl Brooksbank,” the princess wrote in her post. ”We are beyond in love with our girlie.” The 36-year-old granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, 40, who wed in October 2018, additionally share two sons: August Philip Hawke, 5, and Ernest George Ronnie, 3. The birth of their third child was also confirmed by a post on the official Instagram account of the Royal Family. “Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie and Mr Jack Brooksbank are delighted to announce the safe arrival of their daughter, born on Monday, 3rd August 2026, at 6.20 pm, at a hospital in Lisbon, Portugal.” The daughter is 15th in line of succession for the throne, trailing her mother in 12th and her brothers in 13th and 14th, in order of their age. The birth announcement comes nearly a year after King Charles stripped Princess Eugenie’s parents, former Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, of their royal honors and titles due to their alleged ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Both have denied the allegations. The newborn’s name has not yet been announced.
