The Duchess of Edinburgh is set to lead Lady Louise Windsor down a different path after "giving up her career", a PR expert has exclusively told GB News.
The 20-year-old is currently studying at the University of St Andrews and is unlikely to become a working member of the Royal Family in the future.
PR expert Lynn Carratt spoke exclusively to GB News to explain how Louise is navigating having a private life, despite being the niece of King Charles III.
She said: "Maintaining a private life can be challenging, especially when you're related to royalty like Lady Louise.

“Her mother, Sophie, had a career in public relations but gave it up to become a working royal.
“Her father Edward had to make a statement to ask for Sophie’s privacy when their relationship was revealed."
The Duchess of Edinburgh began a career in public relations, working for a variety of firms, including four years at Capital Radio, as well as public relations companies The Quentin Bell Organisation and MacLaurin Communications & Media.

She also worked as a ski representative in Switzerland and spent a year travelling and working in Australia.
In 1996, Sophie launched her public relations agency, RJH Public Relations, which she ran with her business partner, Murray Harkin, for five years.
in 2002, both Prince Edward and Sophie announced they would quit their business interests to focus on activities and official engagements on behalf of the Royal Family and aid Queen Elizabeth II in her Golden Jubilee year.
On her transition to becoming a full-time royal, Sophie later told The Times: "Certainly it took me a while to find my feet. The frustration was I had to reduce my expectations of what I could actually do.

"I couldn't turn up at a charity and go, right, I think you should be doing this, because that's what I was used to doing in my working life.
"I had to take a really big step back and go, OK, they want you to be the icing on the cake, the person to come in to thank their volunteers and funders, not necessarily to tell them how to run their communications plan."
Carratt continued to tell GB News: “Lady Louise is currently studying at St Andrews University, where she can enjoy her privacy away from the public eye, much like her cousin William did at the same University.
“Her parents have emphasised the importance of understanding the need to work for a living, so it's unlikely that she will become a full-time working royal after completing her education and especially in a time of calls to slim down the monarchy."
