You can do it like this:

In your Articles Model ensure that the updated_at becomes Carbon instance which you can do by adding a property in your model like :

protected $dates = ['updated_at'];

Also in the model define a method which will check if the article is latest : 

public function isLatest() {
    return $this->updated_at->diffInDays(\Carbon\Carbon::now()) <= 3;
}

The method is basically checking if the diff in days is less than or equal to 3 as mentioned by you.

Now in your view, use the method on the $article object like : 

 @if ($article->isLatest()) 
     <!-- when true --> 
 @else
    <!-- when false -->
 @endif

I hope it helps
