When Buckingham Palace announced that Princess Eugenie is expecting her third child, royal enthusiasts erupted in joy. However, many were quick to recognize that the statement lacked a familiar phrase often associated with such news — a detail that caught the attention of keen observers amidst ongoing controversies.

The Official Statement

The official news revealed that Eugenie, aged 36, and her husband Jack Brooksbank are anticipating their new arrival this summer, also mentioning the excitement of their two sons, August, 5, and Ernest, 2. Notably, it mentioned that the King has been informed and is pleased with the announcement.

A Shift in Wording

What raised eyebrows was the absence of the customary sentiment expressing that the wider family is 'delighted,' a phrase previously included in announcements for both Eugenie and her sister. This change in wording comes at a time when scrutiny surrounding Prince Andrew, Eugenie's father, has increased.
