Princess Eugenie and her husband Jack Brooksbank have rung in their third wedding anniversary after 11 years together.

It’s hard to believe that it has been three years since the royal walked down the aisle on October 12, 2018, but the time has flown by, and it’s clear the couple is still besotted with one another.

The mother-of-one, who wore a stunning wedding dress by Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos for the ceremony at St George’s Chapel, took to her Instagram to ring in the exciting milestone.

Eugenie shared a beautiful image of herself, dressed in her second blush pink dress by Zac Posen, and Jack sharing what may have been their first dance as a married couple.

She captioned the post, “Happy Anniversary my love.. 3 years today!!”

Although Eugenie and Jack decided they didn’t want to televise their wedding, that didn’t stop fans from crowding around the streets of Windsor.

Inside the service there was a reading of St Paul’s letter to the Colossians, and Eugenie’s sister, Princess Beatrice, shared a passage from The Great Gatsby.

The devoted couple met in 2010 when Jack was working as a bartender at a ski resort in Verbier, Switzerland.

The day before they wed in an interview with This Morning they gushed about each other and revealed their connection was instant.

“It was love at first sight,” Princess Eugenie shared.

“I really, really like this guy, and I really want him to like me, too.”

The 31-year-old was so sure of Jack that she called her mum Sarah Ferguson to tell her the news.

“I think I rang my Mum that night and was like ‘I’ve just met this guy Jack’ and that was it I think, and this is how it started,” she said.

“And I remember being like ‘I really, really like this guy, and I really want him to like me, too’ and then you gave me this huge windscreen wiper wave and I was like ‘right, he likes me’.”
