PRINCESS EUGENIE

Meghan Markle may have said goodbye to social media, but her husband's cousin launched her own independent (and verified!) Instagram in March. While Eugenie does accompany her father, Prince Andrew, on official duties and engagements, she doesn’t have a fixed role within the family like her cousins (although she does have causes she supports). Her page is full of cute throwback shots in honor of family members' birthday and holidays, and she also promotes her charity work.

PRINCESS CHARLENE OF MONACO

The wife of Grace Kelly's son Prince Albert is a typical social media mom: her palace-run Instagram account is full of personal photos of her adorable twins, Gabriella Thérèse Marie and Jacques Honoré Rainier.

LADY AMELIA WINDSOR

Prince Harry and Prince William's third cousin is 38th in the line of succession, but she's already a selfie queen. Lady Amelia Windsor documents her travels around the globe as well as her first row experiences at fashion events (when she's not walking the runway, that is).

PRINCESS MARIA-OLYMPIA OF GREECE AND DENMARK

This is where royalty meets the typical millenial. After all, the 22-year-old socialite has been spotted partying with the likes of Paris Hilton and Poppy Delevingne. While the British royals are advised to stay away from selfies, Olympia is not afraid to post a mirror shot or some behind-the-scenes looks from her modeling jobs.

ARTHUR CHATTO

Princess Margaret's grandson is 25th in the line of sucession to the British throne, so it's unlikely that he'll ever be king. Luckily for his nearly 90,000 Instagram followers, he also seems adverse to another article of clothing: shirts.

PRINCE CARL PHILIP AND PRINCESS SOFIA OF SWEDEN

Adorable family photos, couple's selfies and Sofia's killer wardrobe are highlights of this joint Instagram page. Who said sharing your social media page with your significant other is corny?

LADY KITTY SPENCER

The niece of the late Princess Diana is nothing short of a fashionista, regularly appearing on the runway for brands like Dolce and Gabbana or taking in the shows from the front row. For a mix of royal elegance and style inspiration, look no further.

PRINCE MATEEN OF BRUNEI

Prince Mateen, one of the Sultan of Brunei's 12 children, attended Sandhurst Military Academy like Prince William and Prince Harry. His Instagram page (which boasts 965,000 followers) often shows him in his military uniform — that is, when he's not playing polo or traveling the globe.

TATIANA BLATNIK

Princess Tatiana of Greece and Denmark isn't trying to hide her private life from the world — in fact, her Instagram handle is simply @TitanaBlatnik. There, the sustainable fashion brand founder documents her travels with her husband and adorable dog. Plus, foodies will appreciate snaps of her delicious-looking meals.

SARAH "FERGIE" FERGUSON

If you're a fan of a good throwback, make sure to add Fergie to your list of follows. The mother of Princess Beatrice and fellow social media lover Princess Eugenie is known to dip into the archives when celebrating her daughters' big days, like any proud parent would!

PADMANABH SINGH OF JAIPUR

You may recognize this handsome fellow — he escorted Reese Witherspoon's daughter at le Bal des Débutantes in Paris! Known to friends as "Pacho," he's a member of India's national polo team — he's even an acquaintence of Prince William! — and his personal Instagram often reflects his passion for the sport.

QUEEN RANIA AL ABDULLAH OF JORDAN

From portraits with her children to photos from her official visits, Queen Rania's Instagram bio sums it up nicely: "A mum and a wife with a really cool day job."

PRINCE CONSTANTINE ALEXIOS OF GREECE

The son of Crown Princess Marie-Chantal (and Prince William's godson) has a keen eye for photography, which he showcases on his Instagram page. That means he appears on his own account infrequently, as he's the one behind the camera.

PAULINE DUCRUET

As a granddaughter of Grace Kelly, it's no surprise that Pauline chose New York City to pursue her studies. But the young royal still spends plenty of time in both Monaco and Paris, documenting her time with friends and family (including mom Princess Stephanie and half-sister Camille Gottlieb) on the social media app.

CAMILLE GOTTLEIB

Judging from her Instagram posts, another of Grace Kelly's granddaughters is a big fan of selfies, friends and her pack of pet dogs.

Another sometimes-stateside royal! The son of the Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway attends school in California, where he enjoys surfing and spending time at the skate park.
