Princess Eugenie shares sweet throwback with Fergie and Andrew

ADORABLE! - by Alice Murphy
  • 12 Jul 2019

Unlike much of the royal family, Princess Eugenie is an avid social media user with an eye watering one million followers on Instagram.

The 29-year-old Princess of York regularly shares family photos with her big sister Princess Beatrice, but Eugenie's latest post featured only her dear old mum and dad.

WATCH the sweet moment Prince Andrew walks Princess Eugenie down the aisle:

The Queen's granddaughter shared two adorable throwback shots with Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew, showing the trio enjoying Princess Beatrice's school sports day in 1993.

Eugenie captioned the post: "With all this incredible sport taking place this summer I thought I'd throwback to us watching my Sisters Sports Day 1993! I wonder what Papa and I are talking about... #wimbledon#womensworldcup #cricketworldcup"

With all this incredible sport taking place this summer I thought I'd throwback to us watching my Sisters Sports Day 1993! I wonder what Papa and I are talking about... #wimbledon #womensworldcup #cricketworldcup

The post racked up almost 40,000 likes in just seven hours, with many users praising the York family for their continued close bond.

"Love your family. So so much respect for your mum and dad and how strong you are together," one British fan wrote.

Princess Eugenie's sports day post comes days after her cousin-in-law Meghan Markle sparked outrage with her 'diva' behaviour at Wimbledon.

The Duchess of Sussex delighted royal fans when she made a surprise appearance at Court 1 with best friends Lindsay Roth and Genevieve Hillis to watch her close pal Serena Williams in action last week, but the happy occasion quickly turned sour when royal protection officers repeatedly asked spectators to stop taking photos around Meghan - despite their cameras being focused on tennis ace Serena, not the Duchess.

Meghan's bodyguards said she was attending Wimbledon in a "private capacity" and warned tennis fans against taking pictures of the Duchess to allow her to "engage with people rather than camera phones", royal sources told Daily Mail.

But many have questioned the validity of this tack after the match on Court 1 was watched by 12,000 in situ with millions tuning in on TV.

The controversy follows uproar over Meghan and Prince Harry's renovations to Frogmore Cottage, which cost the British taxpayer $4.3 million.
