Princess Eugenie has left hospital to begin family life with her husband Jack and their newborn son. 

The first-time mother looked glowing as she was driven away from The Portland Hostpital by Jack Brooksbank, sitting in the back with their new arrival in his car seat.     

Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson’s daughter flashed a smile and waved to photographers as she was driven away, looking fresh faced three days after welcoming her first baby with tequila boss, Jack. 

Dressed in a tartan dress, the new mother covered up against the chilly temperatures in a classic camel coat and kept one hand one her baby son to keep him calm as he embarked on his first care journey. 

This is Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s first child, The Duke of York and Sarah, Duchess of York’s first grandchild, and the ninth great-grandchild for The Queen and The Duke of Edinburgh, but will not have a royal title.

The Queen’s granddaughter, 30, had husband Jack Brooksbank at her side at The Portland Hospital in central London where their son – the Queen’s ninth great grandchild – was delivered at 8.55am on Tuesday. 

The new arrival, who is 11th in line to the throne, weighs 8lbs 1oz and the couple broke with tradition by immediately sharing a black and white photo to Eugenie’s Instagram of their baby boy, showing them holding his tiny hand.

Proud new mother Eugenie followed the post with three blue hearts after welcoming her son at the luxury private hospital where Meghan Markle also gave birth to her son, Archie.  

The Queen, The Duke of Edinburgh, The Duke of York, Sarah, Duchess of York, and Mr and Mrs George Brooksbank were delighted with the news, Buckingham Palace announced, adding that ‘Her Royal Highness and her child are both doing well’.
