Buckingham Palace refused to comment on the matter, but a spokesman for Eugenieโ€™s mother, Sarah Ferguson, denied the report to HELLO!

โ€œThe story is not trueโ€, the spokesman said to the publication.

The denial may have something to do with the Duchessโ€™ eldest, Princess Beatrice, just splitting up with her partner-of-ten-years Dave Clark.

Sources close to the pair cited that the issue of marriage was the reason behind the break up.
