He once told the Daily Mail that he dreams of opening a chain of pubs. 'It has been my dream since I was 18. I have fond memories of Sunday roasts in pubs with log fires, and it's something I want to recreate.'

How will Jake Brooksbank be involved in the coronation?

The role that Jake Brooksbank will play in the coronation has not been disclosed. However, it has been reported that Princess Eugenie is likely to be every inch the supportive cousin and ally to Prince Harry in light of his estrangement from the majority of the family. Neither of them have official responsibilities which has led many to assume they will be seated together, therefore meaning Jake will no doubt be spending much time with the Duke of Sussex too.
