It’s been an active week on Instagram for the young royal. A couple of days ago she shared an adorable flashback photograph of herself and her sister Princess Beatrice wearing “cheeky smiles and scunchies” as little girls. She also took to the social media platform to talk about her work as a patron of The Tate Young Patrons.

Her commitment to the charities she supports is something that has made her dad, the Duke of York, very proud. Earlier this month he took to Twitter to express that pride, sharing a number of photos of her with the various charities that she works for. These included a picture of Eugenie surrounded by a group of children reading a book as patron of the Elephant Family, who work to protect the endangered elephants in Asia.
