Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice were
joined by their cousin Zara Tindall for a stylish lunch at London
hotspot Scott’s in the hours after they attended their grandfather, the
late Duke of Edinburgh’s, memorial service.
The three royals were also
joined by their husbands, Jack Brooksbank, Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, and Mike
Tindall, for the meal at the exclusive restaurant in Mayfair which they visited
after the service at Westminster Abbey last Tuesday.
They visited immediately after
the event, with Eugenie showing off her striking Erdem dress as she
was pictured leaving looking in high spirits. She added a short-cropped cape
coat and smart high heels.
The royal wore her hair in a
sleek updo style, finishing with a jeweled headband and flawless makeup
accentuated her features. Jack looked very smart in his suit. Beatrice kept
warm in a buttoned-up gray structured coat and Zara wore a bold royal blue
peacoat.
Zara and Mike had been joined
by their eldest daughter Mia, eight, at Westminster Abbey for the service, but
she did not visit the restaurant, where the six reportedly stayed for several
hours.
It was a rare outing for the
three cousins, whose parents Prince Andrew and Princess Anne are siblings.

Both Anne and Andrew were
also at the service of thanksgiving, which honoured Philip’s dedication
to his family, the nation and the Commonwealth.
It also recognized the importance
of his legacy in creating opportunities for young people, promoting
environmental stewardship and conservation, and supporting the Armed Forces.
Her Majesty the Queen was
joined by members of her family, including Prince Charles and Camilla, Prince
William and Kate – who brought along Prince George and Princess Charlotte –
Anne and her husband Sir Tim Laurence, and the Earl and Countess of Wessex
along with their teenage children Lady Louise Windsor and James, Viscount
Severn.

Eugenie recently spoke on the
documentary, Prince Philip: The Royal Family Remember, and revealed
that she had named her son in honor of the Duke.
She said: “We named
August, August Philip because grandpa has been such a huge, inspiring
character in my life.”
Speaking about the touching
moment she introduced her baby son to the Duke, she adds: “I brought
little August to come and meet him. I told him that we’d named him after him.
It was such a lovely moment. We were very lucky to do that.”
