Eugenie, 34, congratulated her beloved ‘Beabea’ at the time – saying she was looking forward to ‘continuing the journey of motherhood together’. 

In an interview with HELLO! Magazine, she shed further light on the close bond between the York sisters, including news that they share parenting tips and tricks with one another. 

Eugenie said: ‘I ring her a lot about meltdowns and what we do and this and that. When I was Instagramming that photo, I rang her, and I was like, “What do you want me to say?” 

‘Because I always want to ask, just in case. And she said, “Can’t wait to talk about the trials and tribulations of motherhood.”‘

The royal sisters have children of similar ages: Eugenie has August, three, and Ernest, one, with her husband Jack Brooksbank, while Beatrice is mother to Sienna Elizabeth, three, and stepson Wolfie, eight. 

Eugenie added: ‘When your children are the same age and they’re going through the same things, it’s just the luckiest thing in the world… And Bea’s my big sister, I talk to her about everything.’

 The first photo showed herself and Beatrice, who was wearing a floral headband, crouching down with the princess’s daughter, who was dressed in a white flower-girl style dress.   

‘A very proud GiGi/Mum today. Such an incredible blessing and an embrace to my heart,’ the duchess captioned her post.

She also referenced all her grandchildren and her step-grandchild in her sweet post: ‘Wolfie, August, Ernie and Sienna will be over the moon to have the fifth member of the five aside!’

Beatrice is the eldest daughter of the Duke of York and his ex-wife Sarah, and the new baby will be the Yorks’ fourth grandchild, with Beatrice’s stepson Wolfie making five.

In a personal address to her daughter amid sweet pictures of Beatrice, Sienna and Fergie’s youngest daughter Princess Eugenie, the Duchess wrote: ‘Darling Beatrice. Words can’t quite express the joy and excitement I feel as you and Edo prepare to welcome another precious addition to your beautiful family.

‘Becoming a granny again fills my heart with so much happiness and gratitude. Watching you grow as a mother has been one of the greatest privileges of my life, and now to see you family blossom further is an absolute blessing.’

Fergie added: ‘Our family is growing, and so too is the love that surrounds us. I cannot wait to meet this little one and to see in all the wonderful memories we will make together. All my love.’

Beatrice’s younger sister Eugenie, meanwhile, showed her excitement for the family’s new arrival by sharing the announcement to her Instagram story, however she didn’t post herself until later in the day.

The mother-of-two simply added a reaction picture of a Sesame Street puppet, which applauded enthusiastically. 

The happy news comes during one of the royal family’s most personally challenging years, with the King, the Princess of Wales and Beatrice’s mother Sarah, Duchess of York all being diagnosed with cancer.

Sarah was treated for malignant melanoma skin cancer in January, just months after undergoing a mastectomy for breast cancer, but Beatrice said in May the duchess had been given the ‘all clear’.

Announcing the baby news earlier today, Buckingham Palace said: ‘Her Royal Highness Princess Beatrice and Mr Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi are very pleased to announce that they are expecting their second child together in early spring; a sibling for Wolfie, aged eight, and Sienna, aged three.

‘His Majesty The King has been informed and both families are delighted with the news,’ concluded the announcement.

The little one will be a younger brother or sister for the couple’s daughter Sienna, three, and Beatrice’s stepson, eight-year-old Wolfie, whose real name is Christopher Woolf, who Mr Mapelli Mozzi shares with his ex-fiancée, architect Dara Huang.

Two new pictures from the family were shared to mark the announcement, with one showing blonde-haired Sienna from behind as she walks along a country lane, holding hands in the middle of her father and big brother Wolfie. 

The youngster, with a red bow in her hair, is kitted out in bright yellow wellies and an all-in-one blue waterproof puddlesuit decorated with cloud and bird motifs.

In another picture, an overjoyed Beatrice – wearing a black puffer jacket – smiles at the camera, while being embraced by Mr Mapelli Mozzi, who is gazing at his wife.

The royal baby will be 11th in line to the throne, behind older sister Sienna and mother Beatrice. It pushes Beatrice’s sister Princess Eugenie back to 12th in line. 

The grandchild will be a great niece or nephew to the King, and a second cousin of Prince George, Louis and Princess Charlotte.
