During the Royally Obsessed podcast, Roberta Fiorito stated that George Brooksbank spent five weeks on a ventilator during the coronavirus pandemic. Ms Fioritio added that Princess Eugenie and the rest of Mr Brooksbank’s family were told to expect the worse multiple times. 

Ms Fiorito said: “Princess Eugenie’s father-in-law, George Brooksbank, spent nine weeks battling COVID after a recent trip to France.

“He is 71-years-old and he spent five weeks on a ventilator.

“He said his family including Princess Eugenie were told multiple times to prepare for the worst.

“Jack Broosbank’s mum also got COVID but a much less severe case.

“We have had Prince Charles get it, we have had numerous members of the Royal Family get it.

“According to the articles I have read, it seems like he is really on the mend which is great.”

Last week the Royal Family was praised for giving a more “personal glimpse” into their lifestyle during the coronavirus pandemic.

Royal expert Omid Scobie told the HeirPodcast that the Royal Family have shown a more intimate look into their lives through a series of Zoom calls to celebrate nurses around the world.

Mr Scobie added that the Royal Family’s tribute on International Nurses Day captured the message of gratitude towards those on the frontline that we all feel during the coronavirus pandemic. 

Mr Scobie said: “We have seen a more intimate and personal glimpse into the lives of the Royal Family that we have not had before.

“That continued when many of the senior family members teamed up on various calls to nurses around the world to celebrate International Nurses Day.

“I think that day could not have come at a better time.

“I think we are all every day so grateful for nurses, medical and care workers all across the world.

“This message from the Royal Family really did show that.”

During the same podcast, Mr Scobie stated that Queen Elizabeth II had broken new ground at the age of 94 by sharing audio from a private phone call that she was involved in.

Earlier this month, the Queen released audio from a private phone call with Professor Kathleen McCourt to pay tribute to the tireless efforts of nurses throughout the coronavirus pandemic.

Mr Scobie said: “Here we are eight decades on and we have the Queen breaking ground again at the age of 94 sharing the first-ever broadcast of audio from a private phone call that she had made to thank nurses for their very important work.”
