    Princess Eugenie is the latest royal to join Instagram, but she's far from alone. While most members of the British royal family personally refrain from posting on social media, a select few have their own Instagram accounts. And when it comes to royal families around the world, several princes and princesses share intimate snapshots from their lives on a regular basis. Here are some of the best:

    1. Princess Eugenie

    Meghan Markle deleted her Instagram account to join the British royal family, but Princess Eugenie has bucked tradition by securing her own verified account on the platform. She launched her new social media presence to celebrate International Women's Day.

    2. Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York
