Poor Gwen.
The poor girl needs something positive to happen in her personal life. At the very least, get the girl some nachos. A love interest that actually sticks would be good too. At least she would be less likely to pine for home. How could you want to go home when you have friends, a significant other, and nachos?
Gwen will have to rebuild her stamina and lost muscle mass while she's taking up her duties as Queen's Guard. Why do I get the feeling a certain female monarch (and perhaps male too) will be conscripted into her daily routine? The rationale is even easy and obvious too: The best way to guard someone is to make them a poor target. A person that can defend themselves is a poor target. I hope to see the Queen's reaction to Gwen's workout attire and expectation to not be lazy -- come to think of it, Ferdinand's reaction could be interesting as well. Perhaps some exposure to the Westmorlands in a less-than-official capacity will help wipe away her distaste for them.
Does that world have the concept of god parents or something similar? I could see Christophe selecting Gwen for such a title.
Could Beth and her husband (I forget his name) adopt? I guess it could be a very young Westmorland to give them something resembling a normal home life while getting the training they need.
James and Ella's children, at least the eldest, should be coming into their own soon enough. It would be interesting to see what their plans for the world will be.
