Princess Eugenie twerking with bear

Britain's Princess Eugenie has been pictured twerking.

The 23-year-old royal - who is the daughter of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, and granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth - appeared to be taking cues from controversial singer Miley Cyrus as she was snapped bending over in front of a large stuffed bear.

The cheeky picture was posted on social networking site Instagram by Eugenie's pal Harry Wentworth-Stanley, who is the former boyfriend of Prince Harry's on/off flame Cressida Bonas, and the son of the queen's cousin, the Marquess of Milford Haven.

Harry can also be seen in the photo, mischievously wagging his finger in disapproval at the bear.

It seems the stunt is an attempt to replicate Miley's steamy performance with 'Blurred Lines' singer Robin Thicke at the MTV Video Music Awards last month, during which she gyrated against his groin and appeared to touch herself provocatively with a foam finger.

The 'We Can't Stop' hitmaker is also known for her love of bears - featuring large teddy bears in the music video for her hit song and during her performance at the awards ceremony, also.

It's thought Eugenie was snapped while enjoying some downtime at the Alpine resort of Verbier.
