    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s exit from royal duties has left a void in the slimmed-down monarchy of King Charles III.

    With fewer working royals to handle the growing workload, there are concerns the remaining key players are being overburdened.

    This has sparked discussion that King Charles may need to bring in additional royal representatives, including his niece Lady Louise Windsor.

    Could King Charles ask his niece, Lady Louise Windsor, to take on royal duties?

    The abbreviated monarchy was originally meant to rely on Prince Charles’ two sons and their spouses as senior working royals.

    But with Prince Harry, Prince Andrew, and their spouses out of the picture, the King, Camilla, William, and Kate have had a demanding schedule since the coronation.

    Royal author Gareth Russell warned this workload is unsustainable long-term for just four primary royals.

    Either they must start cutting back on engagements or recruiting extra help. Top candidates for promotions are Princess Beatrice, Princess Eugenie, and their cousin Lady Louise.

    At only 20 years old, Lady Louise seems poised to take on more royal duties.

    As the daughter of Prince Edward, she has grown up embedded in the ways of the Firm.

    Lady Louise could inject vital youthful energy into the monarchy as an emerging face of the Crown.

    The need for reinforcements is pressing. King Charles has already conceded publicly that his reign will involve reduced engagements compared to his time as Prince of Wales.

    With extensive charitable commitments formerly under his purview, spreading these duties across more royals is key.

    Lady Louise is at a prime age to begin assuming patronages and causes dear to the Royal Family’s heart.

    Her recent university enrollment also positions her well for relatability with younger Britons.

    Alongside Beatrice and Eugenie, Lady Louise may offer the perfect blend of maturity and millennial appeal.

    As the monarchy shifts to meet modern demands under King Charles III, a mix of old and new faces at the forefront could aid enormously in maintaining public connection.

    Increased visibility for Lady Louise looks inevitable if the Crown intends to uphold its robust presence across the UK for future generations.
