Princess Eugenie dug through the family archives to find the best pictures for her weekly #tbt post on Instagram on Thursday. The 28-year-old delighted her followers by sharing two sweet photos of her parents Prince Andrew and Sarah, Duchess of York as young children.

"#tbt to my parents being adorable @sarahferguson15 @hrhthedukeofyork," she wrote, tagging both her mum and dad in the post. The photo on the left showed a young Sarah Ferguson playing outside as a child, with short curly hair and dressed in a jumper and gingham shorts. Meanwhile, Prince Andrew looked adorable as he grinned while posing in a white shirt and blue shorts, clutching his teddy bear upside down.

Others commented on who Eugenie and her big sister Princess Beatrice looked most like, with one writing: "You look more like your mother and Princess Beatrice looks more like your father."

Princess Eugenie appears to have a close bond with her family, and often posts photos with her mum, dad and sister on Instagram. Meanwhile her mum, Sarah, regularly shares her pride in her daughters, and shared a collage of Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice both carrying out work engagements earlier in the week.

It’s been a busy few days for Eugenie, as not only did she make a sentimental visit to Queen’s Medical Centre in Nottingham to meet with medical staff and patients who have undergone the same operation as she had as a child, but her wedding dress has also gone on display at Windsor Castle.

The bride's wedding dress, along with her emerald tiara - which she borrowed from the Queen - and evening gown will all be on display, as will Jack's morning suit and the maid-of-honour outfit worn by Princess Beatrice. There will even be a special recording from Eugenie herself which has been created for visitors of the exhibition. In it, the 29-year-old talks about the special meaning behind her low-back dress, which she requested so that her scoliosis scar would be visible on her special day.
