Princess Eugenie says one-month-old son August is the ‘best present’ she could wish

Princess Eugenie has shared another glimpse of her adorable one-month-old son August as she thanked well-wishers following her birthday. 

After celebrating her 31st birthday yesterday, the new mum took to Instagram to share two cute snaps of baby August, who was born on February 9, alongside a caption which read: ‘Thank you for the birthday love yesterday..I got the best present I could ask for!!’ 

In the first photograph, the royal can be seen beaming as she cradles August – who is wearing a personalised baby grow with his name emblazoned in blue on the back – as husband Jack Brooksbank, 34, gazes lovingly into her eyes.

A second snap shows the baby boy nuzzling into his father’s shoulder, with just his eyes and star-print white hat peeping out from over the top.

Royal fans were quick to comment on the pictures, continuing to wish Eugenie a belated birthday and congratulating the couple on their ‘beautiful’ baby boy.   

‘Oh my goodness. You look great and he is sooooo cute,’ wrote one, while a second penned:’He’s beautiful.’

A third added:’So lovely, congratulations to you both,’ while a fourth commented:’So sweet! Happy belated birthday.’

Another wrote: ‘So happy for you and your family!’

The daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson welcomed her first child, who is 11th in line to the throne, with Jack on February 9 at London’s Portland Hospital. 

The couple were pictured leaving the hospital three days later on February 12. 

Last month, the new mother revealed the name and shared her first family picture with her son – the Queen’s ninth great grandchild – which is thought to have been taken in the grounds of Frogmore Cottage, where the couple are currently living.

Posting a series of photographs on Instagram, the Queen’s granddaughter wrote: ‘Thank you for so many wonderful messages. Our hearts are full of love for this little human, words can’t express. We are excited to be able to share these photos with you.⁣’ 

Eugenie went on to reveal the name was a touching tribute to Queen Victoria’s Husband Prince Albert, whose birth name was Franz Albert August Karl Emanuel, and Prince Philip, who is currently in hospital, writing: ‘On his grandfather’s birthday weekend, thinking of my grandfather, we are introducing our little boy.

The new mum shared another look at her newborn while celebrating Mother’s Day on  Instagram last month, with a sweet picture of her baby lying among some daffodils. 

Although his head is turned away from the camera, the young royal can be seen donning a patterned babygrow adorned with whales, a knitted white cardigan, matching hat and fluffy rabbit slippers. 

Princess Eugenie also paid tribute to her mother Sarah Ferguson, 61, in a throwback snap where Fergie can be seen holding her as a baby back in 1990.

Alongside the touching tributes, the Queen’s granddaughter penned: ‘I’m so excited to be August’s mum and as you can see I’m enjoying my first Mother’s Day.’ 

‘I’m also celebrating my beautiful Mumma with this picture of us from March 1990. You’ve taught me so much. ⁣Happy Mother’s Day to all.’
