Eugenie's wedding

It was widely rumoured that Princess Eugenie and her fiance Jack Brooksbank would marry in September.

However, it has now  been revealed that the British royal and her long-term boyf will actually say ‘I do’ a little later in the autumn.

Yes, the duo will get hitched on Friday, October 12.

Jack proposed earlier this year with stunning peach-coloured padparadscha sapphire ring – similar in style to the one famously worn by Princess Diana and now, by Duchess Kate (Prince William gave it to her in 2010).

When Eugenie and Jack’s engagement was announced, a load of folk noted that they’d be getting not one but TWO royal weddings this year: Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will also marry in May.

And both couples have chosen the same venue in which to exchange vows: St George’s Chapel at Windsor.

A statement last month read: “The Duke and Duchess of York are delighted to announce the engagement of Princess Eugenie to Mr Jack Brooksbank.

“Her Royal Highness and Mr Brooksbank became engaged in Nicaragua earlier this month.”

Meanwhile, Meghan and Harry got engaged in November. They’ve only been together for a year and a half, meeting in the summer of 2016.
