The Queen's speech, which was shown at 3pm on Christmas day, reflected on a tough 2020 due to the pandemic and finished with NHS workers singing in a choir. Eugenie, who is pregnant with her first child, wrote how 'inspiring' her granny's speech was and thanked her for 'leading the way as always'.
Over 130,000 fans agreed with her comments and liked her post, along with commenting themselves. One fan wrote: "I’m in the US, but look forward to her address every year. Beautifully said this year and a message of hope for us all."
It is thought that Eugenie spent Christmas day at home with her husband Jack Brooksbank. The couple, who moved back to Ivy Cottage in Kensington earlier this month, are expecting their first baby early in 2021.
