Princess Eugenie’s daughter became the third member of the British Royal Family to arrive on foreign soil in over a hundred years.
Princess Eugenie announced on Tuesday the birth of her third child with husband Jack Brooksbank.
According to GB News, the couple’s daughter joins a very small group of royals born outside Britain in recent memory.
Buckingham Palace said Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s daughter was born on Monday, 3rd August 2026, at a hospital in Lisbon, Portugal.
She became the third member of the British Royal Family to arrive on foreign soil in over a hundred years.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s daughter Princess Lilibet arrived at a hospital in Santa Barbara, California, in June 2021.
Maud Windsor, born in Los Angeles in 2013 to Lord Frederick Windsor and Sophie Winkleman, represents another rare overseas arrival.
She was the first grandchild of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent and holds 56th place in the succession.
Before these two cases, historians must look back more than a century to find a comparable example, the birth of Prince Philip on the Greek island of Corfu in 1921.
The newborn occupies 15th place in the line of succession to the throne, pushing her great-uncle Prince Edward down to 16th. She will not carry the title of HRH.
She is also the 15th great-grandchild of the late Queen Elizabeth II, and notably the third to be born since the monarch’s passing in 2022
