Sarah Ferguson lets slip Princess Eugenie's due date – and it's very soon

Sarah Ferguson has let slip her daughter Princess Eugenie's due date - and it's only weeks away.

Prince Andrew's youngest daughter and her husband Jack Brooksbank, who are parents to two-year-old August, will soon welcome their second child.

Eugenie's pregnancy was announced in January this year, as she wrote on her Instagram page: "We're so excited to share that there will be a new addition to our family this summer."

For the announcement, she posted a photograph taken by her husband, showing her son August embracing her and kissing her bump in a field.

The 33-year-old did not confirm her due date and only said her second baby was due over the summer.

But during an interview with ¡HOLA! TV, Eugenie's mum Sarah revealed the baby is due by the end of this month.

After being asked when the public might get to see the newborn, she replied: "Well, we don't know what it is yet. But the baby is due by the end of May, I think. So it's any minute now."

Prince Andrew's ex-wife also described herself as "one of the best grannies ever", as she said she thinks "like a three-year-old".

In an interview last month, Sarah said she loves being a grandmother and added that her grandchildren find her "very funny".

She told OK! magazine: "It's a whole new phase of life and I am modelling myself on Super Gran. I love being with them and how it brings out my inner child. My grandchildren seem to find me very funny. I love indulging them, too."

However, she admitted: "I get in trouble for giving them sweets."

In her interview, Fergie recalled the moment Eugenie told her the news she was expanding her brood.

"While her telling me was a private moment, I will say that there is nothing more exciting and beautiful than seeing the smile on your child’s face when they have news like that to deliver," she said.

"The whole family is thrilled that she is expecting another child."
