The announcement from Buckingham Palace regarding Princess Eugenie’s upcoming addition to the family has sent fans into a frenzy. However, a notable omission in the official statement has left many curious and speculating about the underlying reasons.

In the palace’s brief release, the news revealed that Eugenie, 36, and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, are expecting their third child this summer. The announcement cheerfully mentioned that their sons, August, 5, and Ernest, 2, are “excited” about the new arrival. It was also confirmed that King Charles is aware of the joyful news and is pleased. Yet, one traditional phrase that has been common in previous pregnancy announcements was conspicuously absent: the acknowledgment that the extended family is “delighted.”
