  • This follows royal news that Sarah Ferguson will be working with Pegasus Group Holdings

When sharing a series of images on Prince Andrew’s official Twitter page, the dad mistakenly posted some featuring her younger sister Princess Eugenie by mistake.

The series of images featured Prince Andrew and Princess Eugenie making their entrance at St George’s chapel, alongside another photo from a different royal engagement.

Thankfully, Prince Andrew (or probably his team) soon spotted the error, replacing images of Princess Eugenie with Princess Beatrice as intended.

The tweet read: “Happy Birthday Princess Beatrice. Thank you everyone for the lovely birthday wishes!#HappyBirthdayHRH @yorkiebea”.

Beatrice’s younger sister Princess Eugenie also shared a lovely birthday message for her sister, on her Instagram account that she frequently updates.

In her caption, the Princess wrote: “You have been bossing it since before I was born and continue to be the most wonderful person, friend and big sister… Happy Birthday to you Beabea!! Xx 😘 🎉🎊🥳”

The post featured some sweet throwback photos of the two Princesses, alongside mum Sarah Ferguson, who had also shared a lovely birthday post for her daughter.

Sarah’s post read: “Happy Birthday dearest Beatrice 🥳🥳 xx”, alongside some sweet throwback photos of the family.
