Monarch shares warm moment with Jack Brooksbank and grandsons during Kensington Palace visit
King Charles shared a surprising and public gesture of affection toward Princess Eugenie’s family during a recent visit to Kensington Palace — a move that comes amid growing speculation of a quiet rift between her and Prince Harry.
According to Hello! Magazine, the King delighted onlookers as he arrived in central London via helicopter and made time to greet Eugenie’s husband, Jack Brooksbank, and their two sons, August and Ernest. The young family, currently staying at their Ivy Cottage residence on the palace grounds, were seen enjoying a close-up view of the royal helicopter as the King departed by car.
The moment is being seen as a subtle but notable show of support for Eugenie’s family, particularly as reports swirl about rising tensions between her and the Duke of Sussex.
Recently, The Sun reported that Eugenie’s public outing with outspoken Harry critic Piers Morgan may have added strain to the once-close relationship between the cousins. While neither party has publicly addressed the speculation, the King’s gesture has raised eyebrows among royal watchers.
With Eugenie and her family spending time back in the UK and Harry's ties to the monarchy growing increasingly distant, the timing of the King’s warm interaction has only deepened curiosity about shifting royal dynamics.
