In the first of three photos, Jack is seen looking directly at the camera with a slight smirk as he holds their son in a personalised knitted cardigan.

The 35-year-old coordinates with August by opting for a white shirt, as they pose in the grounds of most likely Frogmore Cottage - where Prince Harry reportedly joined them during his brief return to the UK last month.

The snap appears to have been taken at the same time as the post Eugenie shared to mark the end of the Easter weekend last month. 

Jack appears equally delighted in the second photo shared, as he beams while holding August in a baby carrier fastened around his chest.

Baby August's face is covered in the two snaps and the final photo shows Jack walking with his hands in his pockets and back towards the camera.

He and Princess Eugenie married at St George's Chapel in October 2018 and welcomed their first child August Philip Hawke Brooksbank, who is 11th in line to the throne, at the Portland Hospital in London on February 9.

Jack who is is the son of Old Etonian chartered accountant George Brooksbank and his wife Nicola, is very distantly related to Eugenie.  

His father's great-grandfather is Viscount Thomas Coke, a former Earl of Leicester and a peer in the 19th century.

Viscount Coke, who died in 1909, is also the great, great-grandfather of Sarah Ferguson, Eugenie's mother.

However, the couple didn't meet until they were introduced by friends around seven years ago during a skiing holiday to Verbier in Switzerland.
