Princess Eugenie stuns in a tweed Chanel blazer as she attends an art exhibition in Abu Dhabi

Princess Eugenie cut an elegant figure in Chanel as she attended Abu Dhabi Art 2023 at Canvas Gallery this week.

The royal, 33, showed her dedication to the arts and traveled to the United Arab Emirates capital for the annual exhibition, which showcases the work of emerging visual artists from Wednesday to Sunday this week.

The mother of two wore a classic Chanel tweed blazer for the occasion, which she paired with a chic black maxi skirt with a slit at the front.

She accessorized the outfit with black sling-back pumps with buckles and a pair of classic gold earrings.

The mother-of-two opted for a low-key makeup look with a hint of nude lipstick and classic bronzed eyeshadow.

Eugenie, who recently appeared on the Table Manners podcast with singer Jessie Ware, wore her brown hair in a casual style and let her locks loose.

The mother of two smiled for photos with TPL Corp Ltd CEO Ali Jameel, gallery founder Sameera Raja and several artists who shared their work at the exhibition.

In several photos, Eugenie appeared captivated as she observed the modern artworks.

The fair combines local and international galleries and offers art for sale, displayed alongside exhibitions, artist commissions and installations.

It comes after Princess Eugenie revealed she has ‘a few issues with food’ because of her appearance.

The king’s niece also discussed dinner with the late Queen Elizabeth II and her work on modern slavery in an episode of the Table Manners podcast, out today.

The weekly podcast, hosted by singer Jessie Ware and her mother Lennie, describes itself as ‘about food, family and the beautiful art of conversation’.

When asked if she was fed up with people being critical of what she was wearing or that she looked tired, Eugenie said: “I think that has definitely created some issues around food, you know, for me, in terms of my relationship with it. , or my relationship with having to look a certain way, because it’s always like, “That wasn’t a nice outfit,” or “She looked terrible there.”

‘I think everyone has that when you’re in the public eye. I think it happens in our family at that perfect age where you’re, you know, 13 years old and you have that stupid bowl haircut and you’re kind of chubby and you know, all the boys are picking on you and all that stuff.”

Eugenie, the daughter of the Duke of York and Sarah Duchess of York, now lives in Portugal with her husband Jack Brooksbank and their two sons, August 2, and Ernest, who was born in May.

She continued: ‘This is why Portugal is the dream, because I can go to the supermarket in my sports gear and with my hair on my head and not mind. It does not matter. Nobody cares.’

One of the other topics the princess discussed on the podcast was expected etiquette when dining with her grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.

Eugenie said the family used ‘table manners A’ when they were together, including having no knees at the table and children eating spaghetti bolognese.

She elaborated further, saying, “I guess you just don’t get off the table until you can get off the table.

‘So, tea was at five o’clock. And it was only 45 minutes, so you can never go crazy.

“And then we started running around the house like crazy.”

The Princess then answered questions about her Floodlight podcast, which highlights issues of modern slavery and is in its second season, which she started with Julia de Boinville, co-founder of the Anti-Slavery Collective.

Asked about her decision to pursue the venture, Eugenie said she first learned about the broader scope of slavery during a visit to India at the age of 21.

She said: “It’s simple things, like you know, being aware that someone can be enslaved at your local nail salon or at a car wash, or in construction and things like that.

“It’s not something in remote places that you might not go to. It can happen within a mile of where you live in the UK and around you.

“So it’s just about, where do your clothes come from? Have you asked anyone if everything is okay? If they don’t look happy? Or something. And it’s also about empathy and kindness.’

Eugenie also talked about her experiences at boarding school and university in Newcastle.

She explained how she lived in halls before moving into a house with friends and having house parties, adding: ‘I did all the normal things back then. Yes, I loved it. It was a really special time.’
