Princess Eugenie's father-in-law dies before baby August's christening

<p>Princess Eugenie's father-in-law George Brooksbank has died just days before his grandson August was christened. </p> <p>The 72-year-old battled Covid-19 last year and was in hospital for nine weeks, with some reports suggesting he never fully recovered. </p> <p>A source told the MailOnline, "George had been in hospital with Covid and had not been the same after that."</p> <p>"He had been unwell for some time. It’s been a difficult time for Jack losing his father before the Christening."</p> <p>After being diagnosed with Covid-19 in March 2020, George was put on a ventilator for five weeks as he fought to overcome the virus.</p> <p><span>When he was eventually discharged from hospital more than two months later, Princess Eugenie thanked the UK's NHS staff "saving my father-in-law's life".</span></p> <p><span>"George came back to us the other day so happy, and as the 'miracle man' as he called himself," she said.</span></p> <p><span>George went on to thank the medical personnel who helped him through his illness, and praised them for their efforts. </span></p> <p><span>"It was a real eye-opener for somebody who has not been in hospital before for any length of time. I certainly owe them my life," he said.</span></p> <p>George's exact cause of death is not yet known, but it is believed he passed away last week. </p> <p>Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank baptised their son August <span>at the All Saints Chapel at Windsor in front of the Queen, members of the royal family and friends.</span></p> <p>August's cousin Lucas Tindall, the son of Zara and Mike Tindall, was also christened in the rare double service. </p> <p><em>Image credits: Getty Images</em></p>

Buckingham Palace left red-faced after Princess Eugenie blunder

<p>On Friday, Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank said “I do” in St George’s Chapel at Windsor Castle.</p> <p>While the wedding was quickly overshadowed with the announcement that Prince Harry and Meghan are expecting their first child, a mistake by Buckingham Palace has added to the insult.</p> <p>The official Instagram account of The Royal Family made one disastrous blunder while announcing the sale of commemorative mugs marking last Friday’s nuptials.</p> <p>The post, which informed followers that the limited edition mugs were available “only till Saturday”, mistakenly referred to Princess Beatrice, rather than Eugenie.</p> <p>“This exclusive mug issued in commemoration of the wedding of HRH Princess Beatrice of York and Mr Jack Brooksbank is now available for purchase by following the link in the description,” the caption said.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img style="width: 313px; height: 418px;" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/7821438/1.jpg" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/e5e178aa9c1e4366a095fb6c1e229f37" /></p> <p>Princess Beatrice is Eugenie’s older sister and was chosen to be her maid of honour on her wedding day.</p> <p>The post was quickly deleted and has been uploaded again with the correct details.</p> <blockquote style="background: #FFF; border: 0; border-radius: 3px; box-shadow: 0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width: 540px; min-width: 326px; padding: 0; width: calc(100% - 2px);" class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned="" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/BpBd3i5DdWB/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_medium=loading" data-instgrm-version="12"> <div style="padding: 16px;"> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: row; align-items: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 50%; flex-grow: 0; height: 40px; margin-right: 14px; width: 40px;"></div> <div style="display: flex; flex-direction: column; flex-grow: 1; justify-content: center;"> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; margin-bottom: 6px; width: 100px;"></div> <div style="background-color: #f4f4f4; border-radius: 4px; flex-grow: 0; height: 14px; width: 60px;"></div> </div> </div> <div style="padding: 19% 0;"></div> <div style="display: block; height: 50px; margin: 0 auto 12px; width: 50px;"></div> <div style="padding-top: 8px;"> <div style="color: #3897f0; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 550; line-height: 18px;">View this post on Instagram</div> </div> <p style="margin: 8px 0 0 0; padding: 0 4px;"><a style="color: #000; font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: 17px; text-decoration: none; word-wrap: break-word;" rel="noopener" href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BpBd3i5DdWB/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_medium=loading" target="_blank">Available only till Saturday!

Body language experts analyse Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s royal wedding

<p>Boy, were we in for a treat this year, as not only was there one royal wedding to celebrate, but two. While everyone made sure to tune in to watch Prince Harry marry the now Duchess of Sussex in May, it was a pleasant surprise when the Queen’s granddaughter Princess Eugenie announced her wedding for the month of October.</p> <p>Marrying Jack Brooksbank in the iconic St. George’s chapel, Princess Eugenie looked radiant and positively glowing as she stood in front of family and friends, ready to say her vows while the world watched on.  </p> <p>She stunned in a beautiful Peter Pilotto gown and accessorised it in true royal fashion, with a tiara. But while these were all obvious to the eye, what you may not have noticed is the loved-up couple’s body language.</p> <p>“This couple is completely enveloped in one another,” said human behavioural expert and author Susan Constantine to <a rel="noopener" href="https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/life/entertainment/a23739200/princess-eugenie-jack-brooksbanks-royal-wedding-body-language/" target="_blank"><em>Goodhousekeeping.com</em>.</a> “From start to finish, you can tell this is a solid couple who actively listens – and respects – one another.”</p> <p>Throughout the ceremony, Jack seemed visibly nervous, as he prepared himself to wed the Princess in front of millions.</p> <p>“He’s sporting a sombre look,” body language expert Patti Wood told <em><a rel="noopener" href="https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/life/entertainment/a23739200/princess-eugenie-jack-brooksbanks-royal-wedding-body-language/" target="_blank">GoodHousekeeping.com</a></em>.</p> <p>“He’s holding all of his tension in his mouth without letting it get the best of him.”</p> <p><img style="width: 0px; height: 0px;" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/7821407/gettyimages-1051952738.jpg" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/2629d10370e44d6bad62e36b93474200" /></p> <p>But despite her fiancé’s anxiousness, Eugenie is completely enthralled with her husband-to-be. “Although her mouth is also tightly closed, she’s looking at him like he’s delicious,” says Wood. “It’s a look you’ll typically see when someone spots someone new and attractive, which makes it rare – and extra-special – on their big day.”</p> <p>During the vow and ring exchange, which is the most important part of the entire ceremony, the couple is seen rubbing each other’s fingers. “This is their way of playing and comforting one another,” Wood explains.</p> <p>While the ring exchange didn’t go smoothly for Jack, Constantine points out Eugenie’s reaction to the moment. “When he’s having a hard time with the ring, Eugenie maintains her stance and is very patient with him. She doesn’t try to step in or adjust the ring herself but lets him take charge.”</p> <p>Once the formalities were done and dusted, the newlyweds made their way outside where they shared a kiss in front of a doting crowd.</p> <p><img style="width: 0px; height: 0px;" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/7821408/gettyimages-1051954184.jpg" alt="" data-udi="umb://media/1225d00a12df4dfb9aca3ca60e066017" /></p> <p>“There’s a special tenderness and sweetness in this highly publicised moment,” Wood explains. “Her light handhold, his check in before the kiss, and the mutual gaze are all good signs, especially on a couple’s wedding day.”</p> <p>As Jack holds on to Eugenie during the kiss, his hand is placed firmly on her lower back, while the Princess has a much gentler touch, and according to Wood, this shows his deep level of respect for his new wife.</p> <p>“This couple has a strong, unbreakable love for one another, which you can see through their mutual gaze and full smiles,” Wood says.</p> <p>Did you watch Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s wedding?
