Princess Eugenie Names Third Child Adelaide Elizabeth Annina Brooksbank

other · 2026-08-17

Princess Eugenie and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, have just welcomed their third child, a baby girl named Adelaide Elizabeth Annina Brooksbank. She was born on August 3, 2026, at 6:20 p.m. in a Lisbon hospital, weighing six pounds nine ounces. The family splits their time between the UK and Portugal, and Adelaide is now 15th in line for the British throne, following her two older brothers, August, five, and Ernest, three. Her name honors Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen, known for her charitable work, and it also inspired the name of South Australia’s capital in 1836. Eugenie shared that the past two weeks have been incredibly special, filled with love, and highlighted the importance of the name in both English and Portuguese cultures. The couple, who met seven years ago while skiing in Switzerland, tied the knot at St George's Chapel in Windsor Castle in October 2018, and they are celebrating their ninth anniversary this year.
