As a non-senior royal, Princess Eugenie leads a relatively private life, choosing to focus on her family life with children August and Ernest as she prepares to welcome her third child with husband Jack Brooksbank

The princess, 35, previously made a rare appearance on the Table Manners podcast with Jessie and Lennie Ware, where she made several surprising revelations about royal life. She revealed how the royal family order Deliveroo to Kensington Palace, and her thoughts on waiting to send her sons to boarding school.

In one particularly insightful moment, the mother-of-two confirmed a rather peculiar royal food rule – that the royal family are forbidden from eating certain types of foods.

“We do one [Waitrose] order every week and everyone piles on everything they can on Sunday night and it comes on Monday morning. Sundays are quite sad looking at my fridge,” said Eugenie. 

When asked what was in her Waitrose order, Princess Eugenie revealed: “Nothing interesting really. Chicken, sausages, always. Potatoes, onion, garlic,” lifting the lid on her rule-breaking food order. 

The royal shared at the time that she’s “not allowed” to have onion and garlic at her parents’ Sarah Ferguson and Prince Andrew’s house (prior to their Royal Lodge eviction), confirming that they fear “the breath” and, like many royals, avoid the pungent foods.
