Eugenie, 33, and husband Jack Brooksbank hav welcomed a boy - their second after eldest son August was born in February 2021 - on 30 May, saying he weighed 7.1lbs.

Posting the happy news on Instagram with a couple of snaps, the royal said they had decided to name him after three family members.

One well-wisher commented: "Congratulations Eugenie. Your heavenly grandma Lilibet and grandpa Philip would have been so proud and thrilled after hearing the news of the arrival of another great-grandchild."

"Augie is loving being a big brother already."

The couple first met in 2010 when Eugenie - the daughter of Prince Andrew, Duke of York, and Sarah, Duchess of York - was 20 and Jack was 24.

He had been working as a barman when their paths crossed at the ski resort of Verbier in Switzerland.

After dating for a year, Jack joined Eugenie for their first official public appearance together at the Royal Ascot in 2011.

They tied the knot in October 2018, surrounded by celebrities and royalty at St George's Chapel at Windsor Castle.
