There are two royal summer weddings already set in the calendar with Princess Anne’s son Peter Philips tying the knot in June, and Lady Marina Windsor, the Duke of Kent’s granddaughter announcing her nuptials.
However, a number of stunning aristocratic eligible bachelorettes remain well in the royal fold.
It includes the late Princess Diana’s niece, 20-year-old Lady Lara Spencer, who has kept her life largely away from the public eye, but is rumoured to have studied overseas.
Elsewhere, the beautiful Lady Helen Taylor’s daughters, Estella, 23, and Eloise, 20, have both stunned at public outings with their glamorous mother.
And always keen to show off her sense of style is the King’s distant relative Zenouska Mowatt, 35, Head of Marketing at luxury design studio Katharine Pooley.
Read on to see who are the British royal eligible bachelorettes you’ve never heard about…
Zenouska Mowatt, 35
The King’s distant relative Zenouska Mowatt is known for her glamorous looks and social media profile.
So it’s no wonder that the 35-year-old is Head of Marketing at luxury design studio Katharine Pooley.
The granddaughter of the late Queen Elizabeth’s cousin, Princess Alexandra of Kent – making her Her Majesty’s first cousins twice removed – has more than 8,200 followers on social media, and often posts photos of herself at glamorous events.
Zenouska, who’s mother is Princess Alexandra’s daughter Marina Ogilvy, has also been a fixture at the likes of Ascot.
She has also worked for the prestigious royal-warrant holder Halcyon Days.
In 2022, Zenouska attended the lying in state service, where she was seen in a dignified black outfit after The Queen’s death.
Lady Lara Spencer, 20
The child of the late Princess Diana’s brother Earl Charles Spencer and his second wife Caroline, Lady Lara Spencer, 20, has kept a relatively late profile.
In 2012, she was an adorable flower girl at her cousin Emily McCorquodale’s wedding – an event which was also attended by William, Kate and Harry.
In 2024, sharing a rare photo with his ‘darling daughter Lara’, he celebrated her 18th birthday.
‘My darling daughter Lara supporting me at my book launch on Thursday – but today we are all going to celebrate brilliant, dazzling, HER: for it’s Lara’s 18th birthday today,’ he wrote on Instagram. ‘So much love, my darling…’
While not much is known about her upbringing, Charles has also in past hinted that she was considering moving across the pond.
Speaking on the Rabbit Hole Detectives podcast, he divulged: ‘I just did a tour of the East Coast universities for my teenage daughter, and everywhere you went, one of the big stats they had was how many [books libraries had]…
‘That’s a really big thing to them, it’s a symbol of not just learning but status.’
Lady Eloise Taylor, 23
Eloise’s mother, Lady Helen Taylor, is the only daughter of the Duke and Duchess of Kent.
Her first child Columbus George Donald Taylor was born on 6 August, 1994 and is 41st in line to the throne. His brother Cassius Edward Taylor followed on 26 December, 1996.
It was after Lady Helen’s husband battled cancer that the couple announced they were expecting their third child.
Timothy was forced to undergo weekly sessions of chemotherapy at London’s Royal Marsden Hospital after being diagnosed with Hodgkin’s disease, but had been in remission for almost two years when Lady Helen fell pregnant for a third time.
They welcomed Eloise Olivia Katherine Taylor on March 2, 2003 and later another daughter Estella Olga Elizabeth Taylor on 21 December 2004 – who are 43rd and 44th in line to the throne.
The two girls came to the attention of the press in June 2011 during the Trooping the Colour when the Duchess of Cambridge appeared enamoured with the pair.
Kate made a point of spending time with the girls, who were eight and six at the time, talking happily with them as the Queen’s official birthday parade and fly-past took place.
She bent down to talk to them and seemed just as interested in the children as she was the royal proceedings.
Last year, she looked to be in high spirits while attending Wimbledon with her mother and enjoying the royal box.
Lady Estella Taylor, 20
Known for her cool style and trendy fashion choices, Eloise’s sister Lady Estella has often been snapped at events with her mother, Lady Helen Taylor, 61.
Estella reportedly studied at the Complutense University of Madrid.
There, it is understood, she completed a degree in Education Sciences and later specialised in the field.
Lady Amelia Windsor, 30
Lady Amelia was born in Cambridge in 1995, the second daughter of George Windsor, Earl of St Andrews, the son of the Duke of Kent, and Sylvana Tomaselli, a Canadian-born academic and historian.
The royal made her debut into society after leaving St Mary’s at the age of 18 at the Bal des Debutantes in 2013, alongside Italian aristocrat Donna Melusine Ruspoli and Indian royal Princess Akshita Bhanj Deo.
Following this, Amelia took a gap year to explore India and Thailand, before returning to the UK and studying French and Italian at the University of Edinburgh.
Now, at 30 years old, Lady Amelia is one of the UK’s most glamorous young aristocrats.
The Tatler cover girl is famously dubbed ‘the most beautiful member of the royal family’ when she graced the magazine’s cover in 2016.
A fashion powerhouse, she has been signed with Storm Model Management since 2016, joining an illustrious roaster of clients including Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne and Lady Kitty Spencer.
Amelia, who lives in Notting Hill with her sister, has also been making a name for herself with designer collaborations, including collections with SALOME and Pretty Ballerina.
Since January 2021, she has been the patron of the Cross River Gorilla Project, a wildlife initiative aiming to protect Critically Endangered Cross River gorillas from extinction.
It has been rumoured that Amelia is engaged.
Lady Louise Windsor, 22
The studious niece of King Charles, 22, is seldom seen at royal events with her family as she prioritises her studies and keeps a lower profile – but as she’s set to be considering a career in the military, her nickname as The Firm’s ‘secret weapon’ may soon materialise.
Lady Louise, whose parents are Prince Edward and Duchess Sophie, is said to have ‘fallen in love’ with army cadets alongside her university degree at St Andrews – much like her father did a generation earlier.
A source told The Sun: ‘She talks about being very keen on a career in the military, serving the King and country. She is all about the Army Cadets and has fallen in love with it.’
If the young royal, who has maintained a low profile during her university days, goes down the military path, she will be the first female royal since her late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, to do so.
While Lady Louise often shies away from the spotlight, instead keeping a firm focus on her education, she may become a rising star among the younger generation of royals as she’s set to follow in the footsteps of the late Queen, with whom she was very close.
Seventeenth in line to the throne, she is currently in her second year at the University of St Andrews studying English and has reportedly said on her LinkedIn page that she is interested in pursuing a career in ‘the military, diplomacy or law’.
Louise is also treading in the footsteps of her cousin, William, who attended St Andrews where he met his now wife, the Princess of Wales.
However, while nothing has been confirmed, the young royal has also reportedly found love with a boyfriend at university.
