Duchess Sophie displayed her emotions as she witnessed a sweet father-daughter moment between Prince Edward and Lady Louise Windsor at a key event.
A few days ago, the daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh not only graduated from the University of St Andrews, but also received a remarkable award.
While continuing the royal legacy, Lady Louise joined 600 young people to receive the Gold Awards from the Duke of Edinburgh at the Palace of Holyroodhouse.
Just like his father and late grandfather, Prince Philip, only daughter of Edward and Sophie, honored the family tradition.
The Duke of Edinburgh’s Award was founded 70 years ago by Prince Philip, the late Duke of Edinburgh, and 40 years ago Prince Edward received his own gold award from his father.
The aim of the award is to help “young people gain confidence and skills that will enable them to reach their full potential,” Palace noted.
Today, a video of the ceremony in which Edward presented the award to his daughter was released on social media.
The Duke said, “Here you go. Listen. Just to prove that you actually did it.”
Lady Louise replied: “I did.”
Notably, Duchess Sophie was also in attendance and she was photographed admiring her daughter on such an important milestone in her life.
