Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank were already splitting their time between the UK and Portugal with their two young sons since the past few years.
Now, with the arrival of their third daughter earlier this year, it has made things clear where the couple feels most comfortable calling their home, and indicating their future plans.
Buckingham Palace announced that the King and the Royal Family were delighted by the arrival of the young royal, who was born in Lisbon, Portugal. It was major indicator that Eugenie and Jack have blended in with the Portuguese quite well.
Moreover, the locals have also given the princess a glowing verdict as a councillor living in the same area detailed having them as neighbours to DailyMail.
The couple is often seen around the area when they head out in their Range Rover or when they are out on walks. The locals in the Portuguese town, where Eugenie has quietly built her life with the family, noted a kind gesture the couple makes.
“I see Eugenie and Jack quite often. We live very close and I knew she was pregnant as I saw her bump. I would often see them in their Range Rover as well,” he said.
“They are very friendly and always wave to say hello and they both also speak a little bit of Portuguese, which has really impressed everyone in the village.”
The councillor also shared that since it’s mostly locals and not many foreigners, no one really knows who she. He noted that even those who know her tend to leave her alone and let her get on with her day.
“They go for a walk on the main street and go to the restaurant and no one bothers them.”
