Princess Eugenie Reveals Special Guest On Season Two Of Podcast

She may not be a working member of the Royal Family, but Princess Eugenie has admitted she still struggled growing up in the public eye, particularly as a teenager.

The York princess was on Jessie and Lennie Ware’s podcast Table Manners this Wednesday, where she gave an insight into her family life and her anti-slavery projects, including her own podcast Floodlight.

Eugenie revealed she had some “issues” as a young person related to her appearance, as she explained she felt the need to “look a certain way” after being the subject of negative comments.

She said: “I guess everybody has that if you’re in the public eye. I guess within our family, it happens at that perfect age where you’re, you know, 13 years old and you’ve got that dorky bowl haircut and you’re a bit chubby and you know, all the boys are bullying you and all that kind of stuff.”

Eugenie now spends part of the year in Portugal with her husband Jack Brooksbank and their sons, August and Ernest, and admitted it had been blissful for her to be anonymous.

She continued: “This is why Portugal is the dream because I can go to the supermarket in my exercise gear and my hair piled on my head and not mind. Not care. No one cares.”

The couple moved their family out there due to Jack’s work in a development project, and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle even paid them a visit in September.

Also on the podcast, which centres on food and in particular the importance of family mealtimes, Eugenie revealed that the best etiquette was expected when eating with her late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth.

One of her mother Sarah Ferguson’s rules was “no knees at the table”, as Eugenie recalled: “So like my mum, if I had a knee at the table, she’d say, Are they invited to lunch? Are they invited to dinner? And so they’d be down.

“But it was like a funny thing. So now if any of our friends are around and they put their knees up my mum’s like, you know.”

However she added that she had not implemented the rule with her own children, as her son August likes to help out in the kitchen by sitting with her in a box on the kitchen counter.

Eugenie elaborated further on her childhood eating experience: “”I guess it’s just you’re not getting down from the table until you can get down from the table. Like, tea was at five.

“And it was only ever, like, 45 minutes so you can never get stir-crazy. And then we’d go running everywhere afterwards around the house like crazy people.”

Eugenie and her older sister Beatrice are now both raising young families of their own, as Beatrice is mum to two-year-old daughter Sienna and stepmum to Wolfie, her husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi’s son from a previous relationship.
