Princess Eugenie flashes ring on engagement finger as Prince Andrew ‘begs Queen to stop his kids being commoners’
RUMOURS are swirling that another Royal wedding is on the cards after Princess Eugenie was spotted with a ring on her left hand.
The young royal was caught with the simple band on her ring finger as she left Mayfair private members' club Loulou's with boyfriend Jack Brooksbank last night.
The princess, who was wearing a black dress and a dark teal jacket, smiled as she left the function - and did not try to hide her jewelled left hand.
Both she and sister Princess Beatrice are reportedly now at the centre of a royal battle with their father worried that his future grandchildren will be "commoners".
Prince Andrew has apparently asked the Queen and her heir Prince Charles to give the future husbands of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie an earldom each.
A source told the : "Otherwise his daughters' children will be commoners, defined as one of the ordinary or common people, as opposed to the aristocracy or to royalty."
According to royal customs, only grandchildren born to monarch's sons will be royals.
This means the future husbands of Princess Eugenie and Beatrice - daughters of Prince Andrew - would need to have their own titles to pass on to their children.
