Lady Louise Windsor is in her element as she competes in a carriage driving event in Windsor (with proud mum Sophie watching on!)

Lady Louise Windsor appeared focused and in control on Sunday as she competed in a carriage driving event in Windsor Great Park - while her mother, Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, looked on proudly.

The 20-year-old royal, who is the eldest child of the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh, Edward and Sophie, inherited her passion for the sport from her grandfather, the late Prince Philip.

The carriage driving event on Sunday 16 June - Father's Day in the UK - was organised by Windsor Park Equestrian Club, which Prince Philip played a role in establishing in 1970.

Dressed casually in a blue jumper, Lady Louise, who is 16th in line to the throne, donned a red and blue, striped riding helmet for the event along with white gloves as is customary for carriage driving.

With her hair tied back and wearing glasses, Lady Louise, who made her carriage driving debut at the age of 17, looked every inch the professional as she competed in today's event.

Prior to the event, Lady Louise, an English Literature student at St Andrews University in Scotland, was seen in a baseball cap and jeans, clutching a coffee cup.

The Duchess of Edinburgh, meanwhile, looked radiant as she supported her daughter, chatted to Lady Louise and stroked a friendly black dog.

Sophie, 59, was dressed casually in blue jeans and a grey sweater with her blond hair tied back.

The mother and daughter's relaxed appearance today was in sharp contrast to their glamorous display yesterday at the Trooping the Colour.

On Saturday, Lady Louise looked to her mother's wardrobe when putting together her elegant outfit for the royal event.

Lady Louise made a surprise appearance at the King's Birthday Parade in London yesterday, standing next to her proud parents on the Buckingham Palace balcony.

But rather than find a whole new outfit for the occasion - Lady Louise instead relied on garments already in her home of Bagshot Park in Surrey.

She looked to her mother, Sophie, for style inspiration and borrowed a floral, light blue Jane Taylor London fascinator from her. The Duchess wore the headpiece for Royal Ascot 2023 last June.

Lady Louise's white chiffon tea dress adorned with blue flowers, meanwhile, was previously sported by the late Queen's granddaughter for the King's Coronation last May.

The Duchess of Edinburgh and her daughter Lady Louise looked equally stylish as they joined other members of The Firm at Trooping the Colour.

The annual event, a major highlight of the royal calendar, celebrates the birthday of the reigning monarch in the UK and has been held every year for the past 260 years.

Sophie was dressed for the occasion, donning a bright yellow dress from Beulah London and a Jane Taylor hat, channelling Spring on a rainy day in London.

She was joined by her daughter, Lady Louise, who looked graceful in her dress from Suzannah London, which she paired with a light blue fascinator and silver pearl drop earrings.

Lady Louise , who is currently studying at the University of St Andrews, did not attend Trooping the Colour last year.

Her 16-year-old brother, James, the Earl of Wessex, was also absent last year and did not go with his family this year.

It is believed that the teenager is currently sitting his GCSEs, as the exam season ends on June 21.

Sophie was pictured next to her husband, the Duke of Edinburgh, who looked dapper in his dashing red uniform, displaying his medals.
