Princess Eugenie looked stylishly cozy as she was pictured with her sister Princess Beatrice and their friend Natalie Pinkham at Casa Cruz in Notting Hill.
The mother-of-two, 33, wrapped up from the cold and looked in good spirits as she left the Argentinian restaurant after dinner with Sky Sports presenter Natalie, who was close friends with her cousin Prince Harry .
Eugenie remains close to Harry, despite his feud with other members of the royal family, and the Duke and his wife Meghan Markle even traveled to Portugal to visit him after the Invictus Games.
Natalie was also once part of Prince Harry’s inner circle and even had to deny rumors of a romance with the royal, who allegedly “ghosted” her after meeting Meghan.
But the cozy dinner proves that there is clearly no bad blood between the princesses and Natalie, with whom they have been friends for years.

Natalie is also close to Zara Tindall and is regularly photographed enjoying social outings with Princess Anne’s daughter.
Eugenie layered her Weekend Max Mara wool coat over an all-black ensemble, completing the look with a Strathberry Lana Osette bucket bag.
The £700 coat, which Eugenie debuted at the Together At Christmas concert last year, incorporated a double-breasted front, classic check print and playful fringed hem, making it a standout cover-up.
She added delicate layered jewelry and sported glowing makeup, while her hair was tied up in a bun.
Meanwhile, Beatrice, 35, donned a military-inspired ME+EM jacket, which she first wore on International Day of the Girl in 2022.
Priced at £300, this eye-catching design is crafted from navy Italian wool with contrasting red trim and polished gold buttons.
The two princesses are regulars at the intimate west London restaurant, where they have dined on several occasions.
Other famous visitors include Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss and Victoria Beckham, as well as Prince Harry.
The royal siblings’ friend, Natalie Pinkham, opted for a checked blazer and leather pants, accented with heeled ankle boots.

Prince Harry reportedly met sports presenter Natalie Pinkham at the Rugby World Cup in Wales in 1999, when he was 15 and she was in her early 20s.
When Harry was 17, the Mail reported that Harry formed a close friendship with Natalie, then 24, who was then a researcher on Ready, Steady, Cook.
Sources said he was smitten with Miss Pinkham and regularly sent her flirtatious emails and text messages.
However, she denied they were more than friends, saying: “We are close friends and have known each other for a few years. We speak on the phone regularly, but I really don’t want to say anything else.
Sky Sports presenter Natalie Pinkham – who is seven years older than Prince Harry – was pictured interviewing the royal in 2011.
In 2006, photos of Prince Harry – who was still dating Chelsy Davy at the time – groping Natalie’s chest at a party were published in The Sun.
Speaking to the Mail on Sunday shortly afterwards, Natalie denied she was romantically involved with the prince – with one source saying she saw him as a “normal guy”.
Prince Harry and Natalie’s relationship did not develop further from there and she married Endemol executive Owain Walbyoff and the couple now have two children.

Beatrice kept things simple in a navy military-style jacket, teamed with a skirt and sweater.
Natalie enjoyed a night out with her old pals, who she is still close to even though she is no longer friendly with their cousin Prince Harry.
Natalie reportedly enjoyed regular meetings with Prince Harry over the years, becoming his “drinking buddy and confidante”, but their relationship cooled when he met Meghan.
Natural beauty! Mother-of-two Eugenie looked fresh-faced for her evening, with just a touch of makeup to highlight her features.
In 2019, it was reported that Prince Harry “ghosted” Natalie after her marriage to Meghan Markle.
Speaking to The Sun, a source said: “She is rightly upset. She has known Harry for years and was not only his drinking companion, but also his confidante.
“They were very close but it was purely platonic. When Harry ended up with Meghan, their relationship quickly changed – it just stabilized and cooled noticeably.
However, they added: “Natalie thinks Meghan is the no-nonsense soulmate who will tame Harry’s wild side.”
