This princess just became the first British royal to create a personal Instagram
Oh, what we would give to see each member of the British royal family create their own personal Instagram accounts.
But, we may have just got one step closer to achieving this noble goal. Princess Eugenie just created her own personal Instagram and she's already sharing never-before-seen glimpses of her life as a princess.
Princess Eugenie—cousin of William and Harry and granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II—launched her account on International Women's Day, stating that she hopes to use her account to "share the causes, passions and people close to my heart."
The royal family has a series of official Instagram accounts, including @TheRoyalFamily, @KensingtonRoyal, and Clarence House, which are used to share official announcements and photos of royal engagements. Eugenie's launch of her account makes her the first British royal to have a personal public Instagram.
Since joining, she's shared a sweet 'gram of herself with her new fiancé Jack Brooksbank.
And some adorable throwback shots of herself with her mother, Sarah Ferguson.
Now all we need is for her cousins Harry and William to get in on the Instagram act. Reckon you can put in a good word, Eugenie?
