Princess Eugenie Celebrated Her 5th Wedding Anniversary With a New Family Portrait

Yesterday marked Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank's fifth wedding anniversary, and in honor of the celebratory occasion, the royal shared a previously unseen video from the couple's fairytale nuptials, as well as a glimpse at their lives now as parents to two boys. 

On Thursday, Eugenie posted a wedding video to her Instagram page, writing in the caption: “5 years ago today.. ❤️❤️.” Set to the tune of "You've Got the Love" by Florence and the Machine, the clip began with a countdown before showing footage from inside St. George's Chapel. The camera captured a close-up of Eugenie's pink engagement ring and an image of the newlyweds sharing their first kiss on the church's steps, as well as a flash at the horse-drawn carriage they rode in following the ceremony.

Eugenie saved a sweet surprise for at the very end of the film, as it finished with the couple's first public portrait as a family of four with their two sons — August, 2, and 4-month-old Ernest. In the photo, the pair posed with their children on the beach, with Eugenie, who was dressed in a black T-shirt, black shorts, and a backwards baseball cap, holding baby Ernest in her arms while he was wrapped in a pink towel. Jack, meanwhile, kneeled behind August, who adorably held up two handfuls of sand, and put his arm around his wife's waist.

As one of the few members of the royal family to have a public Instagram account, this isn't the first time Eugenie has shared a personal milestone on the platform. Back in June, she announced the birth of her second child, Ernest, with a sweet photo of the newborn, and a few months later, the royal wished her older sister Princess Beatrice a happy birthday and also paid tribute to her late grandmother Queen Elizabeth a year after her death.
