Constantine Michael Louloudis MBE (born 15 September 1991) is a Greek-British rower. He is a dual Olympian, two time Olympic medal winner and two time world champion.

His father is Greek and comes from the island of Andros. His mother Madeleine is the youngest daughter of the 20th Viscount Dillon and is a Lady-in-Waiting to The Princess Royal.

He was a King's Scholar at Eton College, an all-boys public school in Eton, Berkshire. He then studied Classics at Trinity College, Oxford, and graduated with a first class Bachelor of Arts (BA) degree.

He learned to row at Eton and in 2009 stroked the Eton VIII that won at Henley Royal Regatta, the National Schools Regatta and the Schools' Head.

He was in the six seat of the winning Oxford Blue boat at the 2011 Oxford-Cambridge Boat Race. Later in 2011, he won the Men's Pairs, with George Nash, at the FISA World Rowing Under 23 Championships on the Bosbaan on 24 July 2011 in Amsterdam, Netherlands.

He took a year out of his studies to train for and compete at the 2012 Summer Olympics, winning a bronze medal in the men's eight. Louloudis then returned to his Oxford studies, rowing in the winning eights of a second and third Boat Race in 2013 and 2014, before returning to the British eight, which he stroked to a gold medal at the 2014 World Rowing Championships. The next year he won a final Boat Race as president of Oxford University Boat Club.
