Princess Eugenie of York, daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, has posted the first photos of her newborn son's face and revealed his name. Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank have named their baby boy August Philip Hawke Brooksbank, Buckingham Palace said Saturday. The baby - a ninth great-grandchild for Queen Elizabeth II - was born February 9 at London's Portland Hospital.
Posting a series of photographs on Instagram, Princess Eugenie wrote: "Thank you for so many wonderful messages. Our hearts are full of love for this little human, words can't express. We are excited to be able to share these photos with you."
Princess Eugenie went on to reveal the name was a touching tribute to Queen Victoria's Husband Prince Albert, whose birth name was Franz Albert August Karl Emanuel, and Prince Philip, who is currently in hospital, writing: "On his grandfather's birthday weekend, thinking of my grandfather, we are introducing our little boy. He is named after his great grandfather and both of his 5x great grandfathers."
Adorables photos de ce poupon vraiment craquant ; il vient compléter la liste des nouveaux-nés royaux !
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to all,
ReplyDeleteAugust is a beautiful baby
August Philip Hawke is adorable. Jack looks ecstatic and Princess Eugenie looks a bit overwhelmed. The fact that she is up and about so soon after a C-section is courageous. Congratulations to this sweet family.
ReplyDeleteCompletely agree, Debra. I also think Eugenie still looks tired and overwhelmed, which is completely understandable! If she would've waited a while longer for posing for pictures, I'd have understood as well. Kudos to her! Like the headband, it's nice on her.
DeleteI think Jack's smile couldn't be any brighter and their firstborn is a ray of sunshine in these difficult times.
Plus: I love that they named their son after prince Philip Philip too. Some extra recognition for a long, royal and dutiful life!
Whoopsiedaisies, I meant prince Philip only once in my comment. Sorry for the error 😄
DeleteHeart-warming, beautiful photos! All the best to them!
ReplyDeleteShe just posed with the baby to eclipse the Sussexes. 😂😂😂😂😂 For those of you that know me.... it’s sarcasm!! M.
ReplyDeleteEin herzige ,schöner kleines Bub mit sehr traditionllen und schönen Namen :) :)
ReplyDeleteHe is a beautiful baby. I like that they presented August in blue. We have become accustomed to seeing the newborns presented to us in white. Wishing them all health and happiness. ~d
ReplyDelete@M Love the sarcasm!
So wonderful, they are all lovely and the parents just radiate joy!! Love the blue hat & blanket and her jacket. Kudos to them, especially Princess Eugenia recovering from her c-section, for sharing the pic. All the best to them.

Oops Eugenie, I never thought auto correct would change that.

Well what a little cutie; having great relatives with the similar name; they were called Gus or Augie. Eugenie and Jack look such proud parents, I wish them love and happiness for the future xxx
ReplyDeleteTotally agree ... love his names ... All the best for this lovely family!
DeleteThat adorable baby boy looks like he is made of porcelain he is so cute.....You can see it in their eyes how over the moon they are.....Eugenie and Jack are a cute couple! RF
ReplyDeleteAdorable baby, lovely little family – fashion-wise I love Princess Eugenie's headband. Wishing them all the best. Feb
ReplyDeleteLovely happy people sharing their joy with us, love it,
ReplyDeleteVery sweet pictures!! Little August is adorable, I love that they chose his second name for Prince Philip and I absolutely love Eugenie's headband!
ReplyDeleteBoth parents look so happy and proud; impressive that Eugenie is up and about so soon after her c section! All the best for her continued recovery and their new life as a family of 3! :) :)
Congratulations to the Brooksbank and York families. The parents look positively happy.
ReplyDeleteA lovely Family and August is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteWishing all the best.

Beautiful baby and happy parents. Correct about Jack looking ecstatic and Eugenie looking a bit overwhelmed – she’s already aware it’s the mum that ultimately has to do the bulk of the heavy lifting.
ReplyDeleteAnd as someone born in the month of February with the first name of another – in this case April - I’m sure this little guy (well known or not) will face many, many people asking, “Oh, were you born in August?” “No.” [Insert puzzled look.] LOL! If only I had a dime for every time ….
Cute baby, cute dad. Eugenie could have made an effort about her hair. And yes I know that we are in a pandemic, I also know that one can color their own hair or put it up in a tidy bun or ponytail. This is a public semi-official picture from a member of the Royal family. People have fits about Maxima, and they are unforgiving to Meghan about their hair. I guess others get a pass.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, I know that she just had a baby, again, she is privileged unlike millions of women who manage to present themselves a little better.
Nothing against this lovely woman, I am talking about grooming.
Ms. Marple
She's post partum and dress and has hairdo that fits her and suits her. Why don't you lighten up a little. She looks fine. In fact I'm glad she's not too concern about it and looks on the messy side to keep it real. beth
DeleteAnonymous @ 9:24 ( Beth) you opinion is as valid as mine, it has nothing to do with me lighting up or not, you can find her hair great and because of that I won't minimize your comment. I try to talk about fashion and style without delving on character or rumor or my "personal" feelings about these women, simply because I don't have them, so I hope that that is reflected on what I say. Please allow me to opine freely and respectfully without giving me advice as of how I should feel so you approve.
ReplyDeleteBest Regards
Ms. Marple.
I agree with you Ms. Marple. If only good critiques are allowed (especially, when clearly something is not good) then it's not really an objective critique, is it?
DeleteNothing against Eugenie the person/personality, but her hair is a mess. *And* if one isn't quite up to a photo call then don't do it! I would think no one is holding a gun to her head (I really hope she wasn't pressured into this by the "grey men" or whatever), and we're in the middle of a pandemic. It would have been perfectly acceptable if they had decided to wait a while longer (weeks even) before trying to do photos. After she's had more of a rest.
