Princess Eugenie: Engagement was a perfect moment
BBC, Jan 22, 2018

Princess Eugenie has described the proposal from her long-term boyfriend Jack Brooksbank as a "perfect moment".

The Queen's granddaughter said it was a "complete surprise" when Mr Brooksbank got down on one knee in front of a volcano as the sun was setting in Nicaragua earlier this month.

The princess told BBC's The One Show that she cried and was "over the moon".

The wedding will take place at St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle, in the autumn.

It will be the second royal wedding at the chapel this year - Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are due to marry there in May.

Princess Eugenie said the couple were looking over a lake while the sun was setting before the proposal.

She said: "The lake was so beautiful. The light was just a special light I had never seen. I actually said this is an incredible moment, and then he popped the question, which was really surprising even though we have been together seven years.

I'd hit it.......after I found out the size of her families bankroll.

BTW Fergie was hotter than Di, I don't care what anyone says.

I'm not up on the Royals.  Is this the spawn of Prince Andrew and his ex Sarah Ferguson?  Or another of Charles's Brothers?

@Freya, thanks!  She's really cute. 

So I guess the trend now is for royal weddings to be held in chapels instead of someplace like Westminster Cathedral?  I don't want cozy and intimate.  I want a big blow-out.

I've been inside St. George's Chapel. It's really lovely. I think Westminster is for Coronations. I saw the chair there when I visited, I think royal funerals as well.

Princess Diana's wedding was in St Paul's, I'm 99% sure.

I think so. I don't know where Harry is getting married.

I'm a bit behind due to being sick last month....

Sigh.



I hope one day you get to see England. It's really lovely.

Well, I’m not sure myself.  I might be wrong about that.

I’d love to see it someday.  And the rest of the UK, too.
