It was the first question asked when the Duke of Sussex announced plans to fly back for his grandfather’s funeral: who will he see first when he steps off the plane (and will the visit be the key to patching up the reported rift with his brother?)?
The answer is what many had long expected: his cousin Eugenie, who recently gave birth to Archie’s cousin, August, and has been living with her husband Jack Brooksbank at the Sussexes’ property Frogmore Cottage on the Queen’s Windsor estate. The cottage was gifted to Eugenie and her husband for their growing family, and under the condition the Sussexes would bunk in with them on the odd visit to London.
