Princess Eugenie has broken her silence with her first Instagram post since missing Trooping the Colour on Saturday.

Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie did not appear on the famous Buckingham Palace balcony after many fans were hopeful that the King’s nieces would be present.

On Sunday, Princess Eugenie, 34, took to Instagram with her first post since missing the King’s official birthday parade.

On her Instagram story, the princess shared a new photograph of her husband Jack Brooksbank and their eldest son, August, three, to mark Father’s Day.

The Princess of York captioned the post: “Happy Father’s Day.”

She later added two more photographs, one showing Jack and August walking hand-in-hand on a pebbly beach, facing away from the camera.

The other picture featured Ernest Brooksbank, Princess Eugenie’s younger son, who celebrated his first birthday last month.

The latter post contained the caption: “We love you!!”

King Charles and Prince William have also taken to social media today to mark Father’s Day.

Many royal fans were gutted that Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie did not appear on the Buckingham Palace balcony on Saturday.

Last month, the sisters joined the Prince of Wales at a Buckingham Palace garden party, which many saw as a sign that the princesses could be enlisted as working royals.

However, the monarch has made it clear Beatrice and Eugenie will not become working royals, despite being permitted to support the Royal Family in a personal capacity.
