Princess Eugenie has announced she is expecting her third child. The news was shared in early May 2026, with Buckingham Palace confirming the couple’s happiness and noting that August and Ernest are excited to welcome a new sibling, and that the King is delighted by the news. The announcement was accompanied by a family photo showing the two boys with an ultrasound image, and the new baby is expected to arrive in 2026, described in some outlets as “this summer.”
Key updates from the coverage:
- Official confirmation came from Buckingham Palace in early May 2026.[1][4]
- The couple’s sons, August and Ernest, were pictured holding a baby scan in the announcement.[4][1]
- The King was informed and expressed delight at the news in the official statements.[1][4]
