Hey there, royal enthusiasts! Get ready for some exciting news about Princess Eugenie. From now on, you can refer to the beloved Princess Eugenie by her newly adopted married name! It’s been eight months since she said "I do" to Jack Brooksbank back in October 2018. Now, the Princess of York is officially incorporating her husband’s last name into her own in a truly delightful and unconventional way.
But hold up—she didn’t just become “Eugenie Brooksbank.” Nope, this royal decided to keep things fresh and unique. According to the Court Circular, the official record of royal engagements, Eugenie is now being called “Princess Eugenie, Mrs. Jack Brooksbank.” Talk about blending tradition with modern flair, right? Let’s just say we’re head over heels for this charming update!
How Eugenie's Name Has Evolved
Now, here’s where things get interesting. If you’ve been keeping tabs on Eugenie’s appearances, you might have noticed that she was still simply referred to as “Princess Eugenie” during the Maundy Service at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle in April. Even in March, when she visited the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital alongside Jack—his first-ever royal engagement—she was still addressed as “Princess Eugenie of York.” So what’s changed? Well, it seems Eugenie has decided to fully embrace this new title, and we’re all for it!

Tradition and Titles: The Royal Way
Traditionally, Queen Elizabeth has been known to grant royal titles on the wedding day of newlyweds. For instance, back in May 2018, the Queen bestowed the titles of Duke and Duchess of Sussex upon Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Likewise, Prince William and Kate Middleton were named the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge on their wedding day in 2011. However, in Jack Brooksbank’s case, things are a little different. According to the BBC, while Eugenie retains her royal title, she has the option to adopt her husband’s surname. This means Jack won’t receive a royal title, but that doesn’t seem to bother the happy couple one bit.
