Princess Eugenie paid tribute to Beatrice on her new Instagram account

Eugenie's first Instagram post was made on International Women's Day on 9 March, in which she shared a video of her giving a speech at WE Day. "I can think of no better day than today, International Women’s Day, to launch my personal Instagram. I hope to use this platform to share the causes, passions and people close to my heart. #scoliosis #iwd2018 #weday #firstpost," she wrote besides the footage. During the event, Eugenie touchingly paid tribute to her big sister Beatrice, thanking her for encouraging her and always being there for her "no matter what."

Beatrice has featured in the majority of Eugenie's Instagram posts. Last week, the pair were pictured in a gorgeous throwback photo of them as bridesmaids. The image was taken in 1993 at the wedding of the sisters' former nanny, Alison Wardley, and shows the girls all dressed up for the occasion in embroidered white gowns, complete with ruffled skirts, and with floral headbands in their hair. Alongside the snapshot, Eugenie wrote: "90s throwback… wedding planning starts!"

The royal sisters are incredibly close

Eugenie has previously opened up about her relationship with Beatrice while chatting to The Telegraph. "We get on fantastically well... like all sisters, we have silly arguments about unimportant stuff, but we do love each other to death," she said. The close-knit sisters are often spotted out and about together at events, and are known for their love of fashion, and recently, they enjoyed celebrating Eugenie's engagement to fiancé Jack Brooksbank at the exclusive Arts Club in Mayfair, London.
