Princess Eugenie is thought to be close with her cousin, Prince Harry. And she certainly seems to have followed in the Sussexes' footsteps when it comes to the birth of her first child. Both Princess Eugenie’s baby and Archie Mountbatten-Windsor were born at The Portland Hospital.
Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank have also reportedly been living in the Sussexes' former home, Frogmore Cottage.
If they raise their son here, he will grow up in surroundings with a lovely connection to his royal cousins.
And the links don’t stop there! Princess Eugenie and Prince Harry both got married at the very same venue.
Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan married at St. George’s Chapel in May 2018. Whilst Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank tied the knot there in October of the same year.
Princess Eugenie’s baby and Archie will likely grow up on different continents.
But it’s wonderful to think that the two will forever be linked by these close family ties.
