Lady Louise Windsor has had a memorable week of royal milestones. The 22-year-old graduated from the University of St Andrews with a degree in English, celebrating the occasion alongside her parents, Prince Edward and Duchess Sophie, in official portraits released by the Royal Family.The Royal Family tweeted, “Congratulations to Lady Louise on her graduation from St Andrews University!”Soon after her graduation, Lady Louise received her Duke of Edinburgh’s Gold Award at the Palace of Holyroodhouse.The Royal Family marked the occasion on social media, highlighting that she was following in the footsteps of both her father, Prince Edward, and her late grandfather, Prince Philip, who founded the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award 70 years ago. Prince Edward himself received the same honour from his father 40 years earlier.While both achievements were widely celebrated, it was something else that quickly became the talking point online\u2014Lady Louise’s striking resemblance to her late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II.<\/p>\n Fresh photographs of Lady Louise from the award ceremony prompted an outpouring of reactions across social media, with many royal watchers pointing to what they described as her uncanny resemblance to the late monarch in her younger years.One user on X wrote, “She looks just like Queen Elizabeth did as a teenager!”On Instagram, another commented, “Lady Louise looks so much like her grandmother, the late Queen.”A third added, “Oh my goodness, she really is resembling our late Queen Elizabeth more as she gets older,” while another simply wrote, “Beautiful girl. Looks so much like her grandmother.”Lady Louise has long been regarded by royal fans as one of Queen Elizabeth II’s grandchildren who bears a strong likeness to the monarch, and the latest photographs have only reignited that conversation.<\/p>\n The comparisons between Lady Louise and Queen Elizabeth II are not limited to their appearance. Old photographs of the late Queen cycling as a young girl have often drawn parallels with Lady Louise, who also enjoys cycling.Her mother, Duchess Sophie, previously revealed that cycling was one of Louise’s favourite activities, describing it as something that helped her unwind.The shared interest has become another reason why many royal followers see similarities between grandmother and granddaughter, alongside their facial features and composed public presence.<\/p>\n Despite her rising popularity, Lady Louise has largely stayed away from the royal spotlight. Prince Edward and the Duchess of Edinburgh chose not to use HRH titles for their children, encouraging them to pursue independent lives.Following her graduation from St Andrews, Lady Louise is expected to take a gap year to work, travel and volunteer before deciding on her long-term career, The Independent reported.Reports have suggested she could explore opportunities in the military, diplomacy or law, although no official plans have been announced.<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source timesofindia.indiatimes.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Royal fans say Lady Louise looks just like a young Queen Elizabeth II.
