Fergie & Andrew will ‘spoil grandson Ernest rotten’ on first birthday so he ‘has the same George’, who ‘got £120k card’
Eugenie shared unseen photo of son Ernest on Instagram
PRINCESS Eugenie’s son Ernest turns one today and will be “spoiled rotten” by grandparents the Duke and Duchess of York, claims an expert.
The daughter of Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew paid tribute to her second child, who is affectionately nicknamed “Ernie.”

She wrote: “One year of you my dear Ernest. Happy birthday!! We all love you so much, especially your enormous smile you give the world.. but you always save an extra special one for Mumma.”
The post was poignant, particularly Eugenie typically keeps her family life fairly private and has rarely shared photos of her youngest son, who was born on 30 May 2023.
Princess Eugenie, 34, and her British marketing executive husband Jack Brooksbank, 38, have two kids together, August, three, and Ernest.
Royal author Phil Dampier told Fabulous that little Ernie will likely be celebrating in style.
He shared: “The royal children tend to get very expensive gifts throughout their younger years, including horses, fishing rods, rifles and mini-cars, sometimes provided by manufacturers.
“They are spoilt rotten, whereas at Christmas for example the adults give each other joke presents worth virtually nothing!
“They like to give silly gifts like whoopee cushions or singing fish wall ornaments to each other on the basis that they have everything in life. So they prefer the jokes.
“Apart from his parents Eugenie and Jack wanting only the best for him, he has doting grandparents on both sides, although Jack’s father sadly died a couple of years ago.
“The Duke and Duchess of York will want to give him the best and I’m sure that will include riding lessons, bikes, and expensive toys.
“Fergie, as we know, likes spending money and she will lavish presents on him, believing that as children of Prince Andrew his grandchildren should get the best, just like the children of William and Kate and Harry and Meghan.”
Being in the royal family can come with some great perks – particularly when it comes to your birthday.
This is certainly true of Prince George, who has a £18k playhouse and classic car collection including a mini Aston Martin and a SUV car gifted to him from uncle Prince Harry.
Meanwhile he once received a birthday “card” worth a staggering £120,000 for his first birthday.
In honour of the young prince’s celebrations, aviation company Hangar8 repainted a private Bombardier Challenger jet with a special greeting.

It was covered with the message “Happy Birthday Prince George”, and it reportedly cost a six-figure sum to achieve, making it one of the most expensive ‘cards’ ever.
But sadly Prince George was not able to see the plane in person – let alone take a ride in it.
Marketing director Janus Kamradt told the Oxford Mail: “It was great fun, we’re really proud of the design.
“Four painters spent a month on it and they worked really, really hard.
“We’re unable to fly it to Prince George at Kensington Palace, so we sent him a picture of his biggest birthday card.”
Over the years, the Queen’s granddaughters have often spoken about their incredible bond and have previously described themselves as “each other’s rocks.”
Princess Beatrice was the first child born to the Duke and Duchess of York – Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson – back on August 8, 1988.
The Duchess gave birth at London’s Portland Hospital for Women and Children, and Beatrice’s full name was announced as Beatrice Elizabeth Mary almost two weeks later.
The couple – who divorced in 1996 – then welcomed Princess Eugenie, whose full name is Eugenie Victoria Helena, on March 23, 1990.
As a result of their close bond, it’s no surprise that back in 2018, as Eugenie made her way down to Windsor Castle for her royal nuptials, her maid of honour Beatrice was firmly by her side.
When asked about her maid of honour by TLC, Princess Eugenie said, “I can’t think of anyone I’d want by my side other than her.”
Sadly the plane’s birthday greeting was short-lived, as it was repainted following the royal’s birthday.
It’s the thought that counts.
