Princess Eugenie once shared a special demand that she would put into action if she ever found herself in the position of ruling Britain.

The unique demand is one thought to be popular with many people, especially as it would make a huge difference to the average five-day working week.

When the Princess was in her 20s, Eugenie was asked what she would do if she suddenly became Queen and she gave an eight-word answer.

Speaking to the Daily Mail she retorted: “I would make Mondays part of the weekend!”

In the same interview, Princess Eugenie, also admitted American officials at Immigration once struggled to believe her late grandmother was Queen, despite her being a Princess.

OK! Magazine previously reported the Princess once said American Immigration officers told her, “So, you’re a princess eh? Do you have much power?” as she explained to the publications the role can be “weird” at times for her.

This year, Princess Eugenie, 34, has proven to be a big support to the Prince and Princess of Wales, following Kate’s cancer diagnosis.

It’s been claimed that Eugenie and her sister Princess Beatrice have stepped up to help with Royal duties, especially with their uncle King Charles, 75, also battling the illness.

A source said: “Bea and Eugenie can’t imagine what William is going through right now, and it was an honour for them to give him some support.”

For instance, on May 21, the Princesses stepped in to help Prince William host a Buckingham Palace garden party on behalf of King Charles, alongside his first cousins, while Kate was absent from engagements.

Princess Eugenie, her husband, Jack Brooksbank and two sons currently split their time between London and Portugal but the continuing success of Jack’s UK-based firm means they are considering a permanent move to England.

A source told Express.co.uk: “Eugenie is adamant that she wants to head back to the UK on a more permanent basis and use the villa in Portugal as a holiday home.”

“They are very close to their families and all like spending lots of quality time together with the children.”

They added: “They [the family] are currently spending a lot of time in Portugal and as the boys get a bit older, they are looking for kindergartens near to their London home and eventually schools in the UK.”

Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson’s youngest daughter also supports various charitable organisations such as Tate Modern and The Serpentine and holds various Ambassador and Patron roles at charities including Teenage Cancer Trust, the European School of Osteopathy, and the Elephant Family.
