Introducing Princess Eugenie’s Second Child: Ernest George Ronnie Brooksbank

Princess Eugenie has joyfully announced the arrival of her second child, Ernest George Ronnie Brooksbank.

The granddaughter of the late Queen Elizabeth II, aged 33, and her husband Jack Brooksbank, aged 37, welcomed their newborn, weighing 7 pounds 1 ounce, nearly a week ago on May 30.

This new addition to the family signifies a significant milestone as it makes their first child, August, aged 2, an older sibling and the first great-grandchild born since the passing of the queen.

Ernest marks the thirteenth direct and legitimate grandchild of Queen Elizabeth II, with five of them bearing the late monarch's iconic name or a variation of it, making them the youngest descendants of the queen.

The eldest son of the queen and Prince of Wales, Prince George, aged 9, holds the second position in line to the throne.

His birth took place at St. Mary's Hospital in London on July 22, 2013, with the bells of Westminster Abbey ringing out in celebration.

Following Prince George, his sister Princess Charlotte, third in line to the throne, was born on May 2, 2015, also at the same hospital as her brother.

The arrival of Princess Charlotte Elizabeth Diana was met with gun salutes at Hyde Park and the Tower of London.

Subsequently, Prince Louis, aged 5, the youngest child of Prince William and Princess Kate, captured attention during the late queen's platinum jubilee with his spirited demeanor.

Prince Louis, whose full name is Louis Arthur Charles, pays tribute to his great-uncle Louis, Lord Mountbatten, and his grandfather, Prince Charles III.

Meanwhile, Prince Harry, the queen's grandson, shares two children with his wife Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.

Their son, Archie Harrison, was born on May 6, 2019, at London's Portland Hospital, with notable landmarks such as Niagara Falls and the London Eye illuminated to mark the occasion.

Archie, who met his great-grandparents Queen Elizabeth II and the late Duke of Edinburgh when he was just two days old, now resides in Montecito, California, alongside his sister Princess Lilibet Diana.

The Sussexes recently celebrated Lilibet's second birthday.

Additionally, Princess Anne's son, Peter Phillips, shares two children with his ex-wife Autumn Kelly.

Their first child, Savannah Anne Kathleen, was born on December 29, 2010, with Queen Elizabeth II attending her christening in Gloucestershire.

Four months later, Isla Elizabeth, their second child, entered the world at Gloucestershire Royal Hospital on March 29, 2012.

Zara Tindall, one of the queen's eight grandchildren, has three children with her husband, former Rugby Union player Mike Tindall.

Their offspring include Mia Grace, born on January 17, 2014, Lena Elizabeth, born on June 18, 2018, and their only son Lucas Philip, born on March 21, 2021, at Gatcombe Park.

Princess Beatrice, the eldest daughter of the Duke and Duchess of York, shares a child with her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi.

Sienna Elizabeth, born on September 18, 2021, at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital, joined the family.

Beatrice also embraces a stepson, Christopher Woolf, from Edoardo's previous relationship with designer Dara Huang.

Princess Eugenie, the daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, now holds two children, August Philip Hawke Brooksbank and Ernest George Ronnie Brooksbank.

Ernest, named after his great-great-grandfather, grandfather George, and grandmother Ronald, was born at the Private Portland Hospital in London, the same location where his brother, mother, and elder sister Princess Beatrice were welcomed into the world.

Sharing the news on Instagram, Eugenie expressed her and Jack's delight in welcoming their son, Ernest George Ronnie Brooksbank, on May 30, 2023, weighing 7.1 pounds.

Augie, as affectionately known, is embracing his role as an older sibling.
