The royal mom of one, who turned 31 on Tuesday, celebrated the birth of her son back in early February. The baby is the first grandchild for Princess Eugenie's parents, Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York, and the ninth great-grandchild for the queen and the Duke of Edinburgh.

A few days later, the couple announced the baby's name, August Philip Hawke Brooksbank,⁣ sharing the special meaning behind her son's name.

“On his grandfather’s birthday weekend, thinking of my grandfather, we are introducing our little boy,” referring to her grandfather, Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, who was hospitalized that same week.

“He is named after his great grandfather and both of his great x5 grandfathers," she added.

Royal fans didn't just love their homage to their lineage, they also loved how Princess Eugenie looked "so real" in the pics she shared

“(I) love that she looks so real and not glammed — like most mums in the early haze of having a newborn,” commented one fan.

“Thank you for sharing a true postpartum picture,” another follower wrote. “You look beautiful! Giving birth is a true milestone.”

But while August is a newer member of the royal family, he isn't the newest addition. On Wednesday it was announced that the daughter of Queen Elizabeth’s daughter, Princess Anne, Zara Tindall welcomed her third child with husband Mike Tindall.

“Zara and Mike Tindall are happy to announce the birth of their third child, Lucas Philip Tindall," a spokesperson for the couple revealed.

Mike, a retired rugby player, opened up about the new arrival on his podcast, “The Good, the Bad & the Rugby,” saying that after a weekend of watching the sport, "Sunday got even better because a little baby boy arrived at my house."

According to the proud father, the baby "arrived very quickly." Without enough time to get to the hospital, Zara gave birth on the bathroom floor.

As for Mom, Mike said Zara was "a warrior, as always."
