The royal real estate shuffling never seems to end. After rumors that Prince William wanted to eject his uncle Prince Andrew from Royal Lodge (and, in turn, also Sarah Ferguson),
Princesses Eugenie is the latest royal to make headlines for a possible change of scenery.
According to a report in the Express, Eugenie is looking to make a permanent move to the U.K.
Currently, she and her husband, Jack Brooksbank, split their time between London and Portugal.
The change would allow her to spend more time with her family and, maybe just maybe, earn a place as a working royal.
“Eugenie is adamant that she wants to head back to the U.K. on a more permanent basis and use the villa in Portugal as a holiday home,” a source told Express.
“They are very close to their families and all like spending lots of quality time together with the children.”
The couple lives part-time in Portugal because Brooksbank works as a brand ambassador for the CostaTerra Golf & Ocean Club, which is a resort on the coast. Things are going great with his career, the insider added.
“Jack’s success has given them the freedom to fly back and forth between two countries and provide the boys with a loving and close-knit family unit,” they said.
But the move could also just make things a lot easier for the duo, whose children go to school in the U.K.
“They are currently spending a lot of time in Portugal and as the boys get a bit older, they are looking for kindergartens near to their London home and eventually schools in the U.K.,” the source shared.
Since King Charles and Kate Middleton have pared down their schedules due to their respective health concerns, Eugenie and her sister, Princess Beatrice, have been making more appearances. Having them at events has led many to speculate that they could be stepping up and helping the royals, but others are saying that Prince William is looking to pare down the number of working royals, so there’s still no telling whether or not the sisters will be handed more responsibility from the Firm.
A move to London would make it easier for Eugenie to get involved, even with the specter of her father hanging over any aspirations she may have to lend a helping hand.
“For Beatrice and Eugenie, there is also the ‘Prince Andrew factor,’” British PR expert Luana Ribeira explained to GB News, per Marie Claire. “Although they cannot be held responsible for the words and actions of their father, I think their current strategy of keeping their head down and quietly getting on with life is a wise one for them.”
