The announcement from Buckingham Palace confirming that Princess Eugenie is expecting her third child brought joy to many, yet some royal watchers sensed an omission that felt unusual. The phrasing in this announcement did not include the customary line about the family's delight, stirring curiosity in light of recent developments!

According to the official statement, Eugenie, aged 36, and her husband Jack Brooksbank will welcome their baby this summer. Their sons, August, 5, and Ernest, 2, are said to be “excited” about the new addition. Significantly, the notice mentioned that the King has been informed and is pleased. However, it notably lacked the typical acknowledgement that the extended family is “delighted,” a phrase common in previous announcements concerning Eugenie and her sister.
