She’s expecting her second child with her husband Jack Brooksbank – and Princess Eugenie showed off her growing bump after stepping out for dinner in Notting Hill.
The pregnant royal, 32, looked effortlessly chic in a black dress and camel coat as she enjoyed a night out with Mr Brooksbank in London on Thursday.
Putting on a fashionable display, Eugenie added a touch of glitz to her ensemble with a collection of gold necklaces.
The Duke of York and Sarah Ferguson’s daughter completed her look with a black handbag and matching ankle boots, while keeping her hair in a stylish bun.
Her outing comes after it was revealed the royal paid a secret visit to California last week amid speculation she and her husband are looking for houses in California.

She made an incognito appearance at the Frieze LA VIP art show held at Santa Monica Airport on February 16.
Dressed in a pink jacket and black roll neck, the royal could be seen on her phone as she attended the show.
While it is not known how long Eugenie was in California for, it seems quite likely she caught up with her cousin Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle while visiting the state.
Santa Monica airport is just 90 minutes drive from the exclusive celebrity enclave, Montecito, where the couple live.
Eugenie is known to be close to Harry – she was pictured with her cousin at the Super Bowl last February, and in his memoir, Spare, Harry writes that Eugenie and Jack were the first Royals to meet Meghan.
Of this first meeting, Harry wrote: ‘I remember Euge hugging Meg as if they were sisters.’
In the early days of Meghan and Harry’s relationship, Eugenie and her now-husband Jack went on double dates with the couple.
They also visited Toronto, Canada, to see the pair after the Prince had travelled to be with Meghan during her time filming legal drama Suits.

Eugenie went on to visit Prince Harry and Meghan last February, when she joined her cousin to attend the Super Bowl in Los Angeles.
She was also the only member of the royal family to feature in personal photos shared in Harry’s Netflix documentary.
One sweet snap of Prince Andrew’s daughter, 32, in the second episode shows the pair out for a bike ride along a palm tree-lined stretch of pavement in California.
A source told MailOnline at the time: ‘Harry and Eugenie have always been close ever since they were children. He always makes her laugh. They share a sense of humour.
‘She is friends with Meghan too, and was close to his two previous girlfriends Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas. It was Eugenie who helped set up Harry and Cressida. She refuses to abandon him. She is a very loyal lady. She is not one for taking sides.
It comes after an insider told Mail On Sunday Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack could be about to do their own Megxit as they may be considering following Prince Harry and Meghan to sunny California after the birth of their second child.

At the moment Jack and Eugenie, who have just announced they’re expecting a sibling for two-year-old August, split their time between the UK and Portugal, where Jack works in high-end property development
The Sussexes have been sending 32-year-old Eugenie, the youngest daughter of Prince Andrew, details of homes close to where they live in Montecito, a source claimed.
According to Emily Prescott, the couple are also looking at homes in the West Hollywood area of Los Angeles, and they plan to rent first before taking the plunge and snapping up a property.
America won’t be totally unfamiliar territory for Eugenie, who spent two years living in New York between 2013 and 2015, when she worked for the auction house Paddle8.
At the moment Jack and Eugenie, who have just announced they’re expecting a sibling for two-year-old August, split their time between the UK and Portugal, where Jack works in high-end property development.
Although he recently took a job at Discovery Land Company with property tycoon Mike Meldman, a transition is likely to be fairly smooth as the company’s core properties are dotted around the United States.
A source said: ‘With a growing family, it all feels like it is about new starts. This isn’t just a pipe dream.’
