In a Facebook post by the royal family, a spokesperson said, "Her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie and Mr Jack Brooksbank are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their third child together, due this summer.
"August (aged 5) and Ernest (aged 2) are also very excited to have another sibling join the family. His Majesty The King has been informed and is delighted with the news."
Alongside the statement, the royals shared an image of August and Ernest looking down as they hold the baby scan photograph. This photograph was also shared by Eugenie on her personal Instagram.
This announcement coincides with Jack's 40th birthday, which he celebrated on May 3. In honor of the milestone birthday, Eugenie ended her social media silence, posting a series of loved-up snaps to her Instagram on Sunday.
To celebrate, Eugenie shared numerous adorable images to her Instagram Story, the first showing Jack lying on the beach as she wrote, "Happy 40th, my love."
Another image showed Jack playing with one of their children, and the third was an older photo of the couple, captioned, "Here's to another 16...x."
Eugenie, who is the daughter of former Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, concluded the series of photos with a final snap of the pair on a beach.
Following the announcement of Jack and Eugenie's third child, royal fans were quick to share their love and well-wishes with the couple.
"Congratulations, Your Royal Highness," one person wrote with several clapping emojis. Meanwhile, a second person penned, "Congratulations! I wish you lots of strength and courage for the future. Don't let yourself get down."
A third person then chimed in to say, "What wonderful news," with a fourth person also gushing, "Such a lovely picture. Wishing you all the best."
Princess Eugenie's pregnancy news comes days after her uncle, King Charles, left the United States following his visit to the North American nation.
During his four-day trip, King Charles visited Washington D.C., where he enjoyed a garden party at the British Ambassador's residence. He also spoke to members of Congress in a historic address, which saw him subtly call out Donald Trump.
Then, finally, he attended a state dinner, during which Fox News's Jesse Watters admitted he made a rather tongue-in-cheek joke to Queen Camilla.
It comes after Queen Camilla's cheeky 'bottom' comment left Melania Trump stunned.
