Royal reflects on family influence and values during heartfelt charity
visit
Princess Eugenie has paid tribute to her late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II,
and her mother, Sarah Ferguson, for shaping her strong sense of duty and
commitment to charitable causes.
In a recent interview with The Telegraph during her visit to Horatio’s Garden
South West—a healing space for people with spinal injuries—Eugenie opened up
about the family values that continue to guide her.
She spoke warmly about the support she receives from her husband, her team,
and her family, saying, “I think I’ve got a good balance. I’ve got an amazing
husband and team and projects I’m passionate about. I’d feel uneasy if I
wasn’t doing my charity work, looking after my family and doing my job. I love
what I do.”
Reflecting on the values passed down from previous generations, Eugenie
credited her mother for teaching her the importance of giving back. “My mother
always taught me that giving back to others is the most important thing in
life,” she said. “Bea and I feel very strongly about this.”
She also spoke of the late Queen’s influence, recalling how the sense of duty
was instilled early in life by watching her grandmother and other royal family
members working tirelessly.
Eugenie and her sister have also recently praised their mother’s “resilience”
and “determination” as the Duchess of York continues her battle with two forms
of cancer, highlighting the strength and unity of their close-knit family.
