00:00 Although the 19-year-old is a student at St. Andrews University right now,
00:05 the royal family may be significantly impacted by her future as a working adult.
00:10 The future of Lady Louise Windsor has been examined by a royal specialist
00:14 as she gears up to start her second year of English studies at St. Andrews University.
00:20 Louise the oldest child of Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh,
00:25 as well as her younger brother James, Earl of Wessex,
00:28 are not employed by the royal family.
00:31 Although their youth can contribute to some of this,
00:33 it appears doubtful that Louise and James will become working royals
00:37 given King Charles' efforts to streamline the monarchy.
00:40 Additionally, at positions 16 and 15, respectively, on the succession list,
00:47 they are quite low on the list.
00:49 Richard Fitzwilliams, a royal specialist,
00:52 discussed Louise's potential career path and its potential importance for the family
00:57 in an interview with Express.co.uk.
01:00 Lady Louise will likely be working for a living,
01:02 as her mother the Duchess of Edinburgh once anticipated.
01:06 He remarked,
01:07 "When her parents were made Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh
01:10 and her brother Viscount Severn was elevated to the position of Earl of Wessex,
01:15 she was not given a title.
01:16 The daughter of a duke dresses in a manner akin to that of an earl.
01:20 Since she is still a student,
01:22 it makes sense that she would want to keep her activities under wraps
01:25 and away from the public eye.
01:27 However, it is still true that if she ever performed royal duties,
01:31 it would be quite significant for the royal family
01:33 because there are currently only four working royals under the age of 70,
01:38 which means they will be working for fewer charity organizations."
01:42 Louise and James did appear with other senior members of the firm
01:45 on the balcony of Buckingham Palace following the coronation.
01:49 Despite the king's more streamlined and contemporary style,
01:52 the only other two active royals under the age of 70,
01:56 except Edward and Sophie,
01:58 are Prince William and Princess Kate,
02:00 whose own children are still much too young to assume royal responsibilities.
02:05 As a result,
02:06 some have recommended that younger members of the family,
02:09 such Louise, Princess Beatrice, and Princess Eugenie,
02:13 be given more royal duties.
02:15 Even though the York daughters are involved in their own independent businesses,
02:19 veteran BBC royal correspondent Jenny Bond suggested
02:23 that they would receive more attention as royals.
02:25 "Beatrice and Eugenie are the obvious options
02:28 if the royal family finds itself unexpectedly reduced to the point
02:32 where there aren't enough members left to go around," she claimed.
02:36 The two women perform significant amounts of covert charity work,
02:40 as their mother mentioned in her podcast.
02:42 This might be the best course of action.
