Who is Lady Amelia Windsor, Britain’s ‘most beautiful royal’? Prince William and Harry’s cousin was at the House of the Dragon premiere, and has modelled for Dolce & Gabbana, Chanel and Bulgari
- The Cambridge-raised Instagram sensation may rival Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton as a royal style icon, but only attended the latter’s wedding
- She is with Storm Management, the same agency as Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne and Lily Cole, and wears Dior and Dolce & Gabbana at red carpet events
Is Lady Amelia Windsor the next royal “It” girl?
The young Brit, who just turned 27, is already giving Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton some stiff style competition, donning Dior and Dolce & Gabbana ensembles and sitting front row at Miu Miu, Tommy Hilfiger, John Galliano and Emporio Armani shows. We’ll forgive you if you haven’t heard of her yet though, since her royal heritage has somehow slipped under the radar.
So, who is she exactly and how is Britain’s “most beautiful royal” related to the monarchy?
Her royal roots
Born on August 24, 1995, to George Windsor, Earl of St Andrews, and Canadian academic Sylvana Tomaselli, Lady Amelia’s full name is a long one: Lady Amelia Sophia Theodora Mary Margaret Windsor.
Her grandfather, the Duke of Kent, is a first cousin of Queen Elizabeth, making her a third cousin of Prince William and Prince Harry. She has two siblings, Lady Marina Charlotte Windsor, 29, and Edward Windsor, Lord Downpatrick, 33.
Amelia has been spotted attending Buckingham Palace events including Trooping the Colour over the years, though these days she’s better known as a model and London socialite, regularly posting her fashion-related endeavours on Instagram where she’s accrued nearly 100,000 followers.
