Lady Louise Windsor is presented the Duke of Edinburgh's Gold Award by her father Prince Edward before being joined by boyfriend Felix and her mother Sophie - as newly-graduated royal, 22, prepares to take a gap year

Lady Louise Windsor, 22, received the Duke of Edinburgh's Gold Award from her father, Prince Edward, following her graduation from the University of St Andrews. The event took place at the Palace of Holyroodhouse, where she was accompanied by her mother, Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, and her boyfriend, Felix da Silva-Clamp. Lady Louise is preparing to take a gap year, which is a common practice among members of the royal family to gain life experience before pursuing formal duties. This follows a similar path taken by Prince William, who also took a gap year after graduating from Eton College. During his gap year, William participated in various activities including military training, volunteering, and travel. Lady Louise’s gap year will involve a mix of work, volunteering, and travel, though specific plans for her future career remain undisclosed.
