It was a rough going for Princess Eugenie's father-in-law George Brooksbank while he was fighting the novel coronavirus. According to The Telegraph, Brooksbank, 71, became ill in March after a trip to France and spent nine weeks in the hospital receiving treatment for the virus.
During his health scare, the outlet reported that Brooksbank's family -- including Eugenie, Queen Elizabeth's 30-year-old granddaughter -- was told to "prepare for the worst."
