The British princess gave birth to her third child, a girl, on Monday. The birth took place in a hospital in Lisbon, representing a significant change from the family’s previous practices, as the baby was born in another country rather than in the United Kingdom.
This is the first time the princess, who is married to Jack Brooksbank, has given birth outside British soil. Her first two children, son August and son Ernest, were born at London’s Portland Hospital. It is notable that this is the same medical facility where Princess Eugenie was born.
The princess shared the news with the public by posting a photograph of her newborn on her Instagram profile. The image sparked great interest among followers, and the news confirms that the girl is the 15th great-grandchild of the late Queen Elizabeth II.
Lisbon, the city where the birth took place, is the capital of Portugal. The choice of location for the third child’s birth differs from previous experiences, where all births had taken place at a specific London hospital, highlighting a new dimension in the private life of a royal family member.
