Her second son with husband Jack Brooksbank

Princess Eugenie has announced she gave birth to her baby boy last week.

The 33-year-old royal has revealed she and her husband Jack Brooksbank welcomed their second son, Ernest George Ronnie - a sibling for two-year-old Ronnie - into the world on 30 May, weighing in at 7lbs 1oz.

The princess shared a picture of newborn Ernest and another of her eldest boy Ronnie stroking the head of his new brother.

Taking to Instagram, Eugenie wrote: "Jack and I wanted to share the news that we had our little boy, Ernest George Ronnie Brooksbank on 30th May 2023 at 8.49 weighing 7.1lbs."

Eugenie - who is the daughter of Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York - went on to explain the origins of the little boy's name.

She added: "He is named after his great great great Grandfather George, his Grandpa George and my Grandpa Ronald.

"Augie is loving being a big brother already."

News of Ernest's birth comes just three weeks after Sarah revealed her daughter was due to give birth soon.

Sarah told '¡HOLA! TV': “Well, we don’t know what it is yet. But the baby is due by the end of May, I think. So it’s any minute now.”

Many took to the comments of Eugenie's announcement with love and congratulations for her and her husband Jack.
