Princess Eugenie is set to marry her fiancé Jack Brooksbank on October 12. Now, her mother Sarah Ferguson is speaking out to say that she is already preparing to become a grandmother.
While appearing on the BBC program “The One Show” last Friday, Ferguson was asked how she feels about possibly becoming a grandmother.
“Excellent! They are thrilled because I write children’s books and I’m a child, I haven’t grown up,” Ferguson said with excitement.
Big gratitude to @BBCTheOneShow for having @TomDannatt and I to talk about our charity @streetchilduk and how we can help some of the 121 million children in the world who don’t have the chance of an education @mrmichaelball @MissAlexjones @ChildrenCrisis #bbc pic.twitter.com/Dn0cUO3hfT

Ferguson went on to say that she cannot wait for the wedding of her youngest daughter.
“The good news is that Jack works as the European manager for Casamigos tequila [George Clooney‘s tequila brand], so I’m perfect. He’ll just hand me the tequila and say, ‘Come on, mother-in-law, down it,’” Ferguson said, going on to jokingly refer to herself as “MOB,” for “mother of the bride.”
Ferguson then offered her future son-in-law advice on joining the royal family.
“The thing about Andrew and I is that we go with our hearts, we go with the family unity,” she said. “We really believe in that, you can see that the York family unity, it’s all about seeing the light in life.”
Eugenie has already announced that her wedding will be eco-friendly, and the princess has banned any plastics from her nuptials.
“Eugenie is very controlled, she is so sorted. She knows exactly what she wants,” Ferguson said. “Jack and Eugenie are very contemporary, they are very inclusive, and they are all about love, and they want this wedding to be about that, to include everybody and to really absorb the love they have for each other with everybody else.”
Ferguson concluded by saying that she is already getting emotional about the wedding.
“I’ve been a little busy with organizing things,” she explained. “I do understand why mothers cry at weddings now. All my life I thought, ‘Oh, what’s she crying for?’ It’s lovely, it’s a great day. It’s my little girl.”
