Princess Eugenie recently shared a glimpse into her family life, highlighting the upcoming milestone for her eldest son, August, who is set to start school this September. In the first instance, August was just acting like any four-year-old. Since we’ve been connected with him, his mom has shared endearing and funny anecdotes about him through her touching Facebook posts.
In February, August marked his fourth birthday with a big bash. He was wearing a black aviator-style jacket with enamel patches on it, as worn by Tom Cruise in the 1986 movie “Top Gun.” In an Instagram post marking this momentous day, Eugenie sweetly referred to her son as her “darling Augie.” She said that she was proud and that she loved the little boy very much.
Happy birthday my darling Augie. Today. And what an amazing 4 years. You are the most amazing curious creative explorer rocket ship. You will be dearly missed, but we can’t wait for all our adventures… so many more years ahead of us. I love you my boy, my angel. – Eugenie
August’s younger brother, Ernest, is an important foil to the family dynamic. Ernest, who turns two on May 30, is especially fond of August. Together, they are Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank’s first children, marking a new generation.
Eugenie’s radical devotion as a mother shapes her work and her life. “Priorities change when you have children. You want to do everything you can for them – and for your grandchildren,” she stated in a recent interview. She shared her hope that the values and lessons she teaches will stick with Augustus as he develops into an adult.
The undeniable bond Eugenie has with her sons comes through even on her phone’s lock screen. The heartwarming scene of August beaming in the loving arms of his mom will light up your world. Now, this picture hangs in Eugenie’s home, serving as a daily reminder of the happiness and completeness that being a mom has added to her life.
While August prepares to head off to school, both Ernest and August urge their mother on. They challenge her to pursue her dreams with undeniable passion and renewed vigor. The joy of parenthood has not only shaped Eugenie’s outlook but motivates her to strive for a positive impact on her children’s lives.
