The April edition of Tatler magazine could ruffle a few regal feathers as it hails 20-year-old cover girl Lady Amelia Windsor as 'The most beautiful member of the royal family.' It's been eight years since the society magazine last put a member of the royal family on the cover, when it featured Princess Eugenie as she celebrated her 18th birthday back in 2008. Lady Amelia, 36th in line to the throne, who is the granddaughter of the Queen’s cousin, the Duke of Kent, graces the front page of the aristocrat's favourite read wearing a revealing floral jacquard dress and tousled, flowing hair. Until now, the glacial blonde beauty has kept a reasonably low profile - largely protected from the media's glare by her family and living a cloistered life at an exclusive girls’ boarding school - but as Lady Amelia approaches her final year at Edinburgh University, it seems she's keen to position herself firmly in the spotlight. The student is said to be as fashion conscious as her aunt Lady Helen Taylor, once a brand ambassador for Armani. The 'most beautiful member of the royal family' strap line is unusual news as the Duchess of Cambridge is usually the royal whose good looks garner the most attention. It's not the first time that 'Lady A' has graced the pages of Tatler either; she appeared in October 2010, modelling outfits designed by Hardy Amies, the Queen’s official dressmaker. Along with her handsome brother Edward, Baron Downpatrick, Amelia and sister Marina were pictured across seven pages, modelling outfits designed by Hardy Amies, the Queen’s official dressmaker. Amelia told journalists during the 2010 shoot that she liked to browse Notting Hill’s Portabello Market or root around boutiques in the Marais area of Paris for clothes, signalling an early interest in fashion. The Windsor siblings' father ‘Gentle’ George St Andrews, as he is known to the Royal Family, gave up his right to the throne when he married their Catholic mother, Sylvana Tomaselli, in 1988, only to regain it again in March, 2015 when the Succession to the Crown act came into effect. The trio are second cousins of Lord Freddie and Lady Gabriella Windsor, the children of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent. Lady Amelia was educated at St Mary’s Ascot, in Berkshire. Former pupils of the Catholic school, where fees reach more than £34,000 a year, also include Princess Caroline of Monaco and Lady Antonia Fraser.
