Sarah Ferguson is a devoted grandmother and is excitedly counting down until the arrival of her third grandbaby.
Sarah’s youngest daughter, Princess Eugenie, is pregnant with her second child with her husband Jack Brooksbank; the couple are already proud parents to a two-year-old son August.
Princess Beatrice, meanwhile, welcomed her daughter Sienna in September 2021.
And the Duchess spoke about Eugenie and Jack’s impending arrival in a new interview with Samara García Mendez from ¡HOLA! TV.
Asked about the baby and when the public might get their first glimpse, Sarah replied: “Well, we don’t know what it is yet. But the baby is due by the end of May, I think. So, it’s any minute now.”
Sarah was also asked what she is like as a grandmother.
“Well, the thing is, is that I’ve written 48 children’s books and I’ve flown helicopters, Budgie, the helicopter, and Little Red. And so, I’m wanting to actually write a book about football, now.
“Hence, I’m in the room with footballs and I’m going to write about a bouncy football. But anyway, I’m probably one of the best grannies ever. The best abuela ever because I think like a three-year-old.”
Sara also spoke about King Charles’s coronation and how it felt to attend the concert with her two daughters, Eugenie and Beatrice.
“I mean, the most incredible honour to be there and to see Lionel Richie and to really be part of something as magical as that,” she replied. “And, of course, we all celebrate the King and his incredible work with sustainability and environment and his wonderful Queen, Camilla, by his side. It was a very moving moment to be part of history.”
As for the type of King Charles will be, Sarah remarked: “I think that I think he has made many, many changes in his life for the environment, for what he stands for. And I think it’s very, very important that there are changes.
“I think he’s a very modern King. I think he fights very strongly for justice for young people. And I fully support the King’ wishes for a cleaner planet and for saving the environment. Not only that, his work with children and young adults, what he does is incredible.”
News of Eugenie’s second pregnancy was announced back in January.
“The family is delighted and August is very much looking forward to being a big brother,” said the Palace in a statement.
Eugenie also took to her personal Instagram account to share the exciting news alongside an adorable photo that showed August kissing her growing bump. “We’re so excited to share that there will be a new addition to our family this summer.”
Sarah celebrated the news by sharing an adorable shot of her eldest grandchild August wearing a yellow raincoat as he jumped through puddles. “You will be sharing puddles, Augie! Superb news, Granny heaven…. So deeply grateful,” she captioned the post.
