The royal family is growing: British Princess Eugenie is pregnant again.
"Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank are delighted to announce that they are expecting their second child this summer," Buckingham Palace said.
"The family is delighted and August is very much looking forward to becoming a big brother." Eugenie gave birth to her first child in 2021.
Taking to Instagram, the 32-year-old daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson expressed her joy in a more personal way by sharing a photo of her son August hugging her and pressing his face against her stomach.
"We are so excited to announce that our family is expanding this summer," the statement said.
The picture was taken by Eugenie's husband Jack Brooksbank.
Princess Eugenie and Brooksbank were married in Windsor in 2018.
The couple met in 2010 at a ski resort in Switzerland.
