According to Express.co.uk, back in 1988, a reverend at a wedding asked after Princess Beatrice's health, to which new mum Fergie replied: “Oh, you mean little Beetroot! She’s fine.”
So sweet!
Although the nickname's roots remain a mystery, UPI reported that Fergie, "Didn't say if the nickname comes from her hair colour or the shade she turns when she cries.”
We can only wonder what adorable nickname Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have given their precious Archie!
