Less than two months after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced their engagement, news broke that another member of the royal family will also be tying the knot this year. Princess Eugenie got engaged to her longtime beau, Jack Brooksbank. The announcement came from Buckingham Palace on Monday, Jan. 22, 2018. The princess is not as well known as her cousins Princes William and Harry so here are a few details about the royal, her engagement, and what we know about her upcoming nuptials. Who is Princess Eugenie? Princess Eugenie of York is Prince Charles’ niece. | Chris Jackson/Getty Images For those of you who need to brush up on the royal family tree, Eugenie is one of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip’s grandchildren. She is the daughter of Prince Charles’ brother, Prince Andrew, and his ex-wife, the Duchess of York Sarah “Fergie” Ferguson. Her official title is Princess Eugenie of York and she has one older sister, Princess Beatrice of York. Prior to the birth of Princess Charlotte in 2015, Beatrice and Eugenie were the highest-ranking females in the line of succession to the British throne. Next: When and where she said “yes.” When the couple got engaged Princess Eugenie of York and Jack Brooksbank have been together since 2010. | Justin Tallis/AFP/Getty Images The princess and her fiancé, Jack Brooksbank, started dating in 2010 after they met during a ski trip in the Swiss resort of Verbier. Brooksbank previously managed the club Mahiki, which is frequented by the rich and famous. He is now the U.K. ambassador for Casamigos, the tequila company co-founded by George Clooney. Brooksbank proposed to Eugenie in early January while the two were vacationing in Nicaragua.
