Princess Eugenie Honors Prince Philip With A Touching Instagram Tribute
Eugenie shared the sweetest childhood throwback photo featuring her late grandfather.
Princess Eugenie is paying tribute to her late grandfather, Prince Philip.
The young royal took to Instagram today to share two sweet throwback images of herself with the Duke of Edinburgh. One photo features her, the duke, and her sister, Princess Beatrice, all attending the Derby Festival in 2012. The other image shows Eugenie as a small child wrapped in a baby blue coat while her grandfather dotingly pats her on the head.
"Dearest Grandpa, We all miss you," Eugenie wrote in the caption. "You would be so touched by all the tributes that have been shared with me the past few days. People remember sitting next to you at a dinner, or shaking your hand once, who remember you saying hello in passing, or remember how much their DofE award meant to them."

The princess also reminisced on life lessons and memories that she got from her grandfather.
"I remember learning how to cook, how to paint, what to read. I remember laughing at your jokes and asking about your spectacular life and service in the navy," continued Eugenie. "I remember incinerating the sausages and you swooping in to save the day. I remember your hands and your laugh and your favourite beer."

"I will remember you in your children, your grandchildren and great grandchildren. Thank you for your dedication and love for us all and especially Granny, who we will look after for you," she wrote. "With all my love, Eugenie."
