Sarah Ferguson Shares Striking Black-and-White Photo of Her and Daughter Princess Beatrice in Honor of Bea’s 36th Birthday

Hey, royal fans , guess what day it is? If you said Princess Beatrice ’s 36th birthday, then you’d be correct.

To celebrate the special occasion, her mom, Sarah “Fergie” Ferguson posted a striking throwback photo of the two of them on her personal Instagram page , which truly showcases the close-knit mother-daughter bond that they share.

Earlier this morning, the Duchess of York, 64, posted the beautiful black-and-white photo of herself and her daughter sharing an embrace on Instagram. As Princess Beatrice bends her head down, Ferguson leans over and places a kiss on the top of her scalp. In the caption, Ferguson dedicated a heartfelt message to her daughter, which read, “Happy birthday my wonderful Beatrice.”

She continued, “You are the most amazing daughter, mother, stepmother, sister, wife and woman! I feel so privileged to be able to learn from you every day. You continue to inspire me and those around you with your warmth, curiosity, and zest for life. I love you. Happy birthday.”

Of course, Ferguson is not the only one who took to Instagram to wish Princess Beatrice a happy birthday. Today, Princess Beatrice’s younger sister, Princess Eugenie , posted a celebratory slideshow filled with photos of her big sis on Instagram. One photo shows the sister duo jumping on a trampoline while another shows Princess Beatrice spending some quality auntie time with her nephew, Ernest .

In the caption, the 34-year-old princess wrote, “Happy birthday dearest Beabea!! What an inspiration you are. You've paved the way for your little sissy. Love you xx.”

We hope you enjoy your special day, Princess Beatrice.
