Princess Eugenie's closest friend throughout her life has been her older sister Beatrice. The sisters are less than two years apart in age, and they've always been close. Back in 2008, Eugenie gave her first official interview to Britain's The Telegraph, and she opened up about how the pair are just like every other pair of sisters (albeit a bit better dressed): very different people, but each other's biggest supporter.
"I am definitely not as polite as Beatrice, I have to say. I tell it as it is. I am shyer at first. Like, at a party I will say to Beatrice as we go in, 'Oh, you go first.' But then, when we're actually in, I am much louder and she is far more polite and solicitous." But like most sisters, they get along sometimes but also have fought about silly things.
"We get on fantastically well, perhaps because we do and think different things. It's quite funny how, like most sisters, we sometimes fight about clothes. I always take her clothes back to school, for instance, which she hates . . . Like all sisters, we have silly arguments about unimportant stuff, but we do love each other to death."
