Is Lady Louise Windsor a working royal?
Lady Louise Windsor isn’t a working royal despite her parents being considered senior members of the monarchy.
Duchess Sophie previously opened up about her children, Louise and 18-year-old James’ futures. She also addressed why she and Edward decided against giving their kids HRH titles.
It’s a proper paid job and there’s no special treatment because of who she is.
During an interview with The Sunday Times in 2020, she said: “We try to bring them up with the understanding that they are very likely to have to work for a living. Hence we made the decision not to use HRH titles. They have them and can decide to use them from 18, but it’s highly unlikely.”

Speaking previously to Royal Insider, royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams discussed the possibility of Louise and James becoming working royals in the future.
He said: “Although their parents did not plan for them to carry out royal engagements or have the HRH title, Lady Louise Windsor, currently a student at St Andrews and her brother James, Viscount Severn might in future do so. It would certainly be very helpful to The Firm if they did.”
