“Some brilliant and inspirational heart heroes.”
Besides attending the very special awards, Ferguson also got the good news that she was going to be a grandmother. The Duchess’s daughter, Princess Eugenie, and her son-in-law Jack Brooksbank are expecting a baby early next year.
The Duchess’s daughter being pregnant isn’t the only good news that came out of the Royal Family this year.
Speaking to “People” magazine, at the time, the royal confessed that she was excited about the baby news. She revealed that she was thrilled for her daughter and Brooksbank and couldn’t wait to welcome a new baby into the York family.

Her child will be Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip‘s ninth great-grandchild. Buckingham Palace also confirmed and celebrated the news of Princess Eugenie’s pregnancy in a statement on the royal website.
The Duchess’s daughter being pregnant isn’t the only good news that came out of the Royal Family this year. Ferguson’s eldest daughter, Princess Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi actually got married on July 17, 2020, in a small ceremony.
Their wedding was held in Windsor after the pair had to cancel their original plans. Beatrice and Mozzi had intended on getting married in May this year but their plans changed due to the outbreak of the pandemic.
When Beatrice’s original May 29, 2020, wedding date came around and she couldn’t have her event, her mother showed her support. Ferguson took to Instagram and shared a childhood photo of her child.
In the caption of the post, she declared her love for her daughter and revealed that she was excited to celebrate Beatrice and Mozzi’s love. She also noted how proud she was of her for still planning to get married amid a pandemic.
