Princess Eugenie faced with ‘make or break’ battle amid Andrew and Fergie scandal
Princess Eugenie's latest move has prove one thing, claims expert.
Princess Eugenie reportedly wants to focus on her growing family, leaving her parents’ scandal behind, a royal expert has claimed. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson’s daughter recently announced her third pregnancy via Buckingham Palace.
The Palace released a statement earlier this month saying Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, are “very pleased” with the news and that the King is “delighted”. It clarified that the new royal baby is due to arrive "in the summer" and that Eugenie's sons, Ernest and August, are "very excited" about the new addition.
The statement read: “Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie and Mr Jack Brooksbank are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their third child together, due this summer.

“August (aged five) and Ernest (aged two) are also very excited to have another sibling join the family. His Majesty The King has been informed and is delighted with the news.”
It came after Eugenie’s parents were exiled from public life due to their links to convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
Now, a royal expert said that Eugenie is focusing on her own life and family and that her parents’ scandal has likely brought her and her husband closer together.
Royal commentator Jennie Bond told the Mirror: “I think the new baby suggests that Eugenie and her husband, Jack, are hunkering down together and getting on with nurturing and expanding their family unit — in spite of all the surrounding noise.
“When a crisis like this happens, it can make or break a couple, and it looks very much as if Eugenie and Jack have been brought even closer together.”
Ms Bond added that despite Andrew and Fergie’s humiliation, the duo are undoubtedly thrilled about their new grandchild.
She said: “I’m sure both Andrew and Sarah will share their daughter’s joy. Although the state of their relationship with both Eugenie and Beatrice remains unknown.”
It comes as reports claimed that Andrew only found out about Eugenie’s third pregnancy, through his ex-wife.
According to sources, Eugenie “has not been in touch” with her father since his recent fall from grace.
She told her mother, Fergie, first, but allegedly did not break the news to her father.
A source told the Mail on Sunday: “Andrew found out that he was to be a grandpa again via Sarah.”
