There was much excitement among fans as Buckingham Palace shared the news of Princess Eugenie expecting her third child. However, a notable absence in the statement caught the attention of many, prompting speculation given the recent context surrounding the royal family.

The official announcement indicated that Eugenie, 36, and her husband Jack Brooksbank are anticipating a new addition this summer. Their two sons, August, 5, and Ernest, 2, were described as ‘excited’ about the forthcoming arrival. Additionally, it mentioned that the King has been informed and is pleased with the news.

What stood out was the absence of the customary phrase declaring that the wider family is ‘delighted,’ a detail typically found in similar announcements regarding Eugenie and her sister.
