Royal Chooses Not to Reveal Location in Instagram Post Amid Safety Concerns
Princess Eugenie has garnered praise for her careful approach to security after sparking a debate about privacy in a recent Instagram post.
The Princess of York, who is the youngest daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, shared a photo with her 1.8 million followers showing her holding her two sons, August and Ernest Brooksbank. However, she notably chose not to tag the location or mention where the photo was taken, which led to a discussion among fans in the comments, according to GB News.
One user commented, "You could tag the place you are in, it looks gorgeous," while another speculated, "Looks to me like Comporta or Melides beach on the western coast of Portugal south of Lisbon." This sparked a debate about the importance of privacy for the royal family.
Another follower defended Eugenie's decision, stating, "She doesn't want everyone there." This sentiment was echoed by another commenter who said, "Probably for security reasons she hasn't disclosed her location," a comment that received over 200 likes.
The photo shows Princess Eugenie walking along a boardwalk beside sandy shores, carrying one son on each hip. The image is believed to have been taken in Portugal, where the family frequently visits. Eugenie's husband, Jack Brooksbank, is involved in a 300-home project at the CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club in Portugal, where they have recently relocated.
In a past interview on the Table Manners podcast, Eugenie shared her appreciation for the privacy Portugal offers, saying, "This is why Portugal is the dream because I can go to the supermarket in my exercise gear and my hair piled on my head and not mind. Not care. No one cares."
