Sadly, September 2022 brought waves of grief to the British royal family with the news of Queen Elizabeth II’s death. Princess Eugenie had always been close with her grandmother, often accompanying her to Easter services and attending events with Her Majesty, despite the fact that she had no obligations as a non-working royal, per Town & Country. Her grandmother was also one of the first people she told about her engagement to Jack Brooksbank, when many other members of the family and the public were still in the dark. They clearly had a special grandmother-granddaughter relationship.
After Queen Elizabeth II died, Eugenie and Beatrice released a joint statement on Instagram accompanying a childhood photo of them with their grandmother. “We’ve not been able to put much into words since you left us all,” the princesses lovingly wrote, “There have been tears and laughter, silences and chatter, hugs and loneliness, and a collective loss for you, our beloved Queen and our beloved Grannie.” They also added, “For now dear Grannie, all we want to say is thank you. Thank you for making us laugh, for including us, for picking heather and raspberries, for marching soldiers, for our teas, for comfort, for joy. You, being you, will never know the impact you have had on our family and so many people around the world.”
