Princess Eugenie of York and husband Jack Brooksbank welcomed a daughter, Adelaide Elizabeth Annina Brooksbank, on 3 August 2026 at a private hospital in Lisbon, Portugal. The newborn weighed approximately 2.9 kg (6lb 9oz) and is the couple’s third child, following their sons, August and Ernest. On 17 August 2026, Princess Eugenie announced the infant's name, stating it was chosen to honor three people, including her late great-grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II. The name Adelaide draws connections to both English and Portuguese history, potentially referencing Queen Adelaide or Maria Adelaide of Portugal. Due to royal protocols, the newborn is expected to be known as Miss Brooksbank rather than receiving a princely title, and she currently holds the 15th position in the British line of succession. The birth marks only the third time in over a century that a member of the British royal family has been born abroad. The choice of Portugal reflects the family’s split residence between the United Kingdom and the Algarve region, where Brooksbank works on the Costa Terra Golf and Ocean Club development.
