Princess Eugenie and husband, Jack Brooksbank announced the pregnancy in an adorable Instagram post.
The post in September 2020 teased that the baby will be born in early 2021, meaning the royal tot is likely just weeks away from arriving.
No baby names have been confirmed, however, many believe the name Alice is in the running, after Prince Philip's mother Princess Alice.
Sarah said that Eugenie “is incredibly empathetic and will be a great mother.”
She has also expressed her pride at Eugenie’s work with the Anti-Slavery Collective during her pregnancy.
She said, “Her work with the Anti-Slavery Collective is a commitment she steadfastly campaigns for.”
As a result of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's exit from royal duties, Eugenie had taken on more responsibility lately. She has been doing more work for the royal firm and of course has stirred public excitement with another royal baby.
The Duchess of York has also announced she will be bringing out a collection of children’s books with one coming out each month for the next year. She has said she cannot wait for ‘story time’ with her new grandson or daughter.
