Eugenie noted in her Instagram post that she took the photos the couple used to announce their engagement, writing, "Beabea - wow! I'm so happy for you my dearest big sissy and dear Edo. It's been a long time coming and you two are meant to be."
Beatrice, ninth in line to the British throne, and Mozzi, described by the BBC as a "property tycoon," got engaged in Italy earlier this month. They plan to wed next year, according to Buckingham Palace.
