Lady Louise Windsor’s 18th birthday last week marked a milestone moment: the young royal is finally able to call herself a princess!
But as the daughter of Sophie and Edward, the Countess and Earl of Wessex, celebrated with a private family dinner and a Zoom call with her grandmother the Queen, it was quietly acknowledged that she would not use this significant occasion to adopt the title she is entitled to use.
Earlier this year Sophie told The Sunday Times that she thought it was “highly unlikely” Louise, or her 13-year-old brother James would use their HRH titles on becoming adults, but despite this, Louise is still being prepped to become an increasingly important member of The Firm.
“There’s no doubt Lady Louise is a shining light for the royal family and the Queen sees her as a very important part of her legacy,” says a palace insider.
“While a lot hinges on her exam results, Louise’s temperament and extreme calm under pressure has proven invaluable over the past years. Kate and Wills adore her and she’s had the ear of the Queen since she was 16.”
