‘Amazing night': Lady Louise Windsor spotted with rumoured Aussie boyfriend Felix da Silva-Clamp
Lady Louise Windsor has appeared in a new photograph alongside a huge group of friends at the University of St Andrews, including her rumoured boyfriend.
Louise is the daughter of Prince Edward and Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, and is the youngest granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip.
The 21-year-old royal is currently studying a four-year English degree at the prestigious St Andrews University in Scotland, where she is reportedly dating fellow student Felix Da Silva-Clamp.
It is understood she met Felix when they were cast to star alongside each other in a student play about two years ago.
The Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh's daughter is currently in the third year of her English degree and enjoys several past times, including the Officer Cadets.
In a new photo shared to social media earlier this week, Lady Louise could be seen posing with her hands on Mr Da Silva-Clamp's shoulders at an Officer Cadets event.
"Last month our Officer Cadets celebrated their Annual Ball in St Andrews,' the caption said.
'It was an enjoyable night with a three-course dinner, speeches and an energetic ceilidh. Well done to our Officer Cadets for organising an amazing night!"
Louise's rumoured flame is the son of British solicitor Jonathan Charles William da Silva-Clamp and Australian Kendall Clamp.
Felix was born in 2004 and raised in Melbourne before moving to the United Kingdom for university.
He has reportedly already met her parents and recently joined Prince Edward and Sophie at the Sandringham Horse Driving Trials to watch Lady Louise compete.
According to a palace source who spoke to the Daily Express newspaper last year, Louise was even considering a study year abroad at Macquarie University in Sydney to get to know Felix's Aussie relatives.

Peter O'Brien heading to His Majesty's Theatre in Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None
The desire to live a nomadic existence has been the motivation behind a great many decisions Australian actor Peter O'Brien has made throughout his life, especially on his career path. Raised in outback South Australian, O'Brien was studying a Bachelor of Science and Teaching degree at Adelaide's Flinders University when he discovered great creative joy in the university revue scene. 'It wasn't like I showed some extraordinary aptitude or gift for it, but I found it a world that was really interesting; the collaborative process and the creativity,' 65-year-old O'Brien says. 'There's a similar thread that runs through it like preparing for a game of sport. It's that preparation, and then out you go. That's something that I understood quite well, and every few months there was a possibility of a new job, and travel with it. 'I certainly wasn't seeking to go and be famous or anything, but it was a great chance to find somewhere in that industry that I could fit in, whether it was in front or behind the camera, or on stage or off-stage. 'From my original desire to be creative and travel, it certainly has fulfilled that and scratched that itch.' Film and television roles — from Neighbours, as original cast member Shane Ramsay, and The Flying Doctors to Halifax f.p. and White Collar Blue — have seen O'Brien travel back and forth to Australia for work as he has spent the past 30 years living everywhere from the UK and US to stints in China, Canada, and South America. He and actor wife Miranda Otto have temporarily moved back to Australia while their daughter Darcey studies at university in Sydney. 'We put the pets on the plane and brought them back, but we didn't do a Johnny Depp, we brought them through the right way,' he chuckles. The move has seen O'Brien reunite with director Robyn Nevin for Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, having worked with her on Sydney Theatre Company's 2003 production of A Doll's House, and knowing Nevin's previous success directing Christie's The Mousetrap. Intrigued by the stage adaptation of Christie's bestselling crime novel, O'Brien signed on for the challenge of character William Blore, also eager for the chance to tour the Australian production to Melbourne, Sydney, Perth and Adelaide. Considered one of the greatest edge-of-your-seat thrillers Christie ever wrote, And Then There Were None follows 10 strangers who are invited to a solitary mansion on an island off the English coast. After a storm isolates them from the mainland, the real reason behind their gathering starts to emerge, taking on a grim reality. 'Agatha Christie always puts these complicated and veiled characters into shows in a way that you are intrigued,' O'Brien says. 'There's a lot of intrigue about William and his involvement in the story. He's a lot of fun, sometimes to his and my detriment. 'Every time he walks into the room, he changes the course of the play where there is an energy or a situation that he either creates, or is involved in, that relaunches or pivots the play in a way. 'There's a tapestry to Agatha Christie's works as she weaves them. It's not that characters are deliberately being deceptive, trying to deceive people, but there's always an area of intrigue about them, of 'why are they doing that?'. It's in her writing of dialogue and situations.' The production premiered in Melbourne in February, where it has been captivating audiences night after night with all the elements of mystery, suspense and humour expected of a Christie narrative. Alongside O'Brien in the 11-strong cast are Nicholas Hammond, Jennifer Flowers, Grant Piro and Anthony Phelan, plus WA Academy of Performing Arts graduates Tom Stokes, Mia Morrissey and Eden Falk. 'The response has just been unanimous rapture,' he says. 'I guess you're only as good as your audience reaction, and that's been enormous. I've really enjoyed it. It takes you along with it from the moment the curtain goes up, and you've just got to keep up. Tell Perth audiences to put their running shoes on when they come.' And Then There Were None is at His Majesty's Theatre, June 8 to 29. Tickets at

Rita Ora's new music celebrates her 'sexuality'
Rita Ora's new music is about celebrating her "sexuality". The British pop star has just dropped her sizzling summer single Heat - the music video for which goes live at 5pm BST Friday (06.06.25) - and has explained that she wanted to embrace her womanhood and be "carefree and fun" after getting deep about married life to filmmaker spouse Taika Waititi on last album, You and I. Rita, 34, told The Sun newspaper's Bizarre column: 'I wanted to really celebrate my sexuality and the way I am as a woman. 'My last album was so different, it was about my love life and getting married. 'But with this next lot of music I wanted it to be so carefree and back to how I was coming up in the industry. 'I wanted to celebrate everything I have become. 'It's not super deep, just fun.' The 'Hot Right Now' hitmaker has been living in married bliss with Taika, 49, for three years now, and she insists she has never had a "type" and encourages her single pals to be open to everyone. She gushed: "I feel in a really great happy place right now." Rita added: 'I have never really had a type, I have never really thought of it like that. 'It's always been about the person. 'I've never cancelled anyone out as they don't fit my perfect list of what I think's perfect. 'You don't really know until you meet someone who takes you by surprise. Being open may surprise you. "That would be my advice. 'It's helped a lot of my friends and now I see them and they are really happy, but admit they'd have never gone for that person.' Stream Heat now on all major platforms.

Filled with nostalgia and great music, this Gen X romantic drama hits the right notes
Mix Tape ★★★ Mix Tape is all about the wonder. First love, favourite songs and inescapable heartbreak are the building blocks of this Irish-Australian romantic drama. Ricocheting between past and present, the teenage protagonists and their middle-aged successors, these four hour-long episodes have an inexorable momentum. It's not subtle, but it's effective. Yes, the plot forcefully pushes these characters into bitter circumstances, but there's also a deeper recognition that sometimes a gesture, or an unspoken decision, or a great song, can add more than carefully crafted detail. Sheffield, England, 1989: lanky teen Dan O'Toole (Rory Walton-Smith) sights high school classmate Alison Connor (Florence Hunt) across the room at a house party. New Order's Bizarre Love Triangle is playing: 'I feel shot right through with a bolt of blue.' Cut to the present day and Dan (Jim Sturgess) is a music journalist, still based in Sheffield and married with a son to Katja (Sara Soulie), while Alison (Teresa Palmer) is getting far more sunshine in Sydney, mother of two daughters and married to surgeon Michael (Ben Lawson). Why aren't they together? When will they get back together? Joy Division's Love Will Tear Us Apart is obviously cued up, but this adaptation of Jane Sanderson's 2020 novel knows, as does the viewer, that Dan and Alison are meant to be together, both as a means of healing and a wellspring of happiness. Their children are mostly leaving home and their partners are slightly off – the emphasis Michael puts on the 'my' in 'you're my wife' lingers uneasily. Loading 'You never forget the boy who makes you your first mix-tape,' Alison tells her daughter, Stella (Julia Savage), which means more once Alison explains to her Spotify-era child what a mix-tape is. Irish writer Jo Spain (Harry Wild) and Australian director Lucy Gaffy (Irreverent) treat love and longing as a magnetic force. It draws the teenagers together, with montages and shared reveries that come with an impeccable soundtrack – Psychedelic Furs, The Church, The Cure – and immaculate production design for the adolescent bedrooms.
