Where do Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank live?
Eugenie and Jack's main residence is Ivy Cottage at Kensington Palace in London, with Eugenie's sister, Beatrice, living nearby at St James's Palace.
The couple split their time between the UK and Portugal due to Jack's work commitments. He is working with property tycoon Mike Meldman, who is managing a 300-home development at the CostaTerra Golf and Ocean Club.
It has not been disclosed how long Jack's project will last, but Portugal certainly is the perfect place for children with so much to see and do.
Meanwhile, the baby's maternal grandparents, Prince Andrew and former wife Sarah, reside at Royal Lodge in Windsor.
