She is a natural beauty & has great poise. She's intelligent & not fazed by public speaking. She's the perfect sounding board too use when problem solving is required. She never tries to upstage others & she will step in to protect the Monarchy. Someone posed the question what would happen if William say died & the King haf tto abdicate due to ill health. The question was who would then rule temporary until George would be old enough & capable enough? The answer was very cryptic - it would be a surprise to many. I think it would be Sophie or Anne.
I totally agree. The Countess of Wessex, now Duchess of Edinburgh, is definitely a very important member of the Royal Family, and a great asset to them all. We will most likely see more and more of her and her family. 👑
Sophie spent a lot of time with the Queen. Sophie, like Anne is always willing to do whatever is necessary for the Crown. Sophie, like Anne and Catherine work very hard for the good of Britain and the Commonwealth.
Sophie is not a ‘pretender’. She has earned the respect of King Charles, Queen Camilla, the Senior Royals , the British people, and abroad by her work ethic, commitment to the crown and her family, without any messy distracting nonsense. It’s really not that difficult to become a high achiever in life when you commit yourself to the right path in life. There are no shortcuts. Meghan is the ultimate example of the ‘tornadic’ disaster wake that is inevitable in a life of shortcuts.
I do not see it that there are unfilled roles from the Sussex's leaving as MM wasn't in the BRF long enough to make an impact or to be missed once she left, she didn't have any true royal duties. Harry was in the army for years and the BRF managed fine without him then, in fact most of his activities seemed to be as a tag along to William and Kate. The Queen is sorely missed, I feel sad that the Royal family hasn't been able to grieve her because of the uproar from Harry. The positions she held, love for her country, along with the commonwealth are the only void that I see Sophie is fabulous and a valued member of the BRF
It's fascinating how the history of the royal family continues to intrigue and captivate people around the world. From the traditions and protocols to the controversies and dramas, there's always something new to learn and discuss. Although royalty may seem distant and inaccessible, it's important to remember that, in the end, they are ordinary people facing unique challenges and responsibilities. I'm curious to see what the future holds for the royal family and how they will continue to evolve and adapt to modern times.
As a model of leadership and cultural representation, the royal family has been a source of inspiration and stability for many countries around the world. In addition, by preserving cultural traditions and values, they help maintain national identity and connection to history. However, it is important to remember that the royal family should also be an institution open to evolution and change, to adapt to the needs and demands of modern society.
MeMeghan could have the same kind of prominence had she taken a lead from Duchess Sophie back then. Maybe MeMeghan thought she outranked Sophie at the time. Now MeMeghan is headed for obscurity and Sophie has a spot on the balcony that she has earned in spades.
The narcissist has never had prominence in her past nor would she have had any within the royal family. She has never actually achieved anything on her own. Just look at her previous marriages and relationships, she did a runner on all of them. She did a runner on her own family and the royals. Only a matter of time before she ditches harry for something more shiny. In her head she lives in a make belief world where the earth rotates around her.
Catherine Princes of Wales was not kept away. She stayed behind to take her three children to school. It was their first day at a new school. Meghan was the only one who was kept away. Harry and Meghan were invited to visit the Queen while they were in the UK and Meghan said no. Of course she wanted to be at her death bed so she could film it and get another 10 million dollars from Netflix...it certainly wasn't because she gave a damn if that the Queen would live or die. Meghan was only worried about what jewelry and how much money she would get up on her death.
Sophie, exudes beauty and brains, no vain fibre! She actions her role as a Royal impeccably 🙏 she and Edward are a blessed couple 💕💕sending love from South Africa 🙏💕
Sophie is his brother's wife. Until the funeral rites were concluded, ER II's sons were before Charles's sons and his daughters in law. Until the funeral was over (the first singing of "God Save the King", which is why Charles cried) both Charles's daughters in law were equal duchesses, with William and Kate having a slight seniority to Harry and his wife. It's a bit subtle and complex. But there it is.
CORRECTION. In the beginning the line of succession for The Queen's children was: the men in order of birth (Charles, Andrew & Edward) and daughter, Anne in last place, even though she is the second born child. When the children marry and have children then their children follow immediately after the royal parents. So the line, before her death, was The Monarch Queen Elizabeth II, Charles; (1) Prince William, (2), Prince/ss George, Charlotte and Louis, (3,4 &5), Harry (6) followed by his two children then the Queen's son Andrew followed by his daughters. The line of succession always include the next generation so that New blood moves up. It seems unfair that William and Harry should be ahead of children that the Queen actually gave birth to. However, that's how it works and it's important who the blood royals marry.
@@karleinegraham446 Exactly. Where @One MercilessMing got the idea that Princes Andrew and Edward were over Princes William and Harry, not to mention Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, is beyond me. It's always been handed down from father to son (or daughter). For example, when Edward III died, instead of the crown going to his next living son, Henry (eventually IV), it went to his eldest son - The Black Prince - son, Richard II who was a child at the time. The Black Prince had died shortly before the King of dystenary.
@@huchlvrI was struggling to understand what she was saying , she/ he was very confident about what they were saying but I couldn’t understand where they got their information from !
Sophie made a few mistakes in the first few years after joining the royal family, but she learned from those mistakes and never repeated them, unlike other members of the royal family....
Camilla will never be Queen to us, never, however Charlie dressing her up, we will never accept her as Queen, we still mourn our Queen Elizabeth so it is arrogant taste to just make us all jump from the fry pan into the fire, the Queen has not even been dead for a year, OMG, for christ sake Charlie, get over yourself, and make her Duchy, full stop, enough is enough, he is looking down on the public and treating us like idiots, it will be their downfall! There is such thing as loyalty and not royalty!
Rubbish, the Queen was forced by Charlie to announce it for him, so she did, she did not say, Queen but Queen consort, and now Charlie has taken the liberty to change it, as he wishes, against the public's feelings and hurts...so, sorry for correcting you....the public are not stupid! She should have stayed as a Duchy, We miss Diana!!!
@@dragonfliesbutterfliesandb4367 NOBODY forced the Queen to do ANYTHING EVER. Yeah, the most powerful woman in the world was forced by a weaker son to MAKE the public accept her. QE2 waited until Prince Phillip's death to make the request because the latter never wanted Charles to marry Camilla in the first place, but the Queen never had an issue with her, and in fact it was said she came to realize that one of the many reasons for the failure of the former Prince & Princess of Wales' marriage was because Charles was forced to get married, and Lady Diana was basically chosen for him.
@@huchlvr Then you have misunderstood the message is not for you, it is for protectors of Diana! If Charlie was hard done by and didn't marry Camilla in the first place, then they should have been more sensitive to Diana and family, for using Diana as a pawn to have children to keep the throne going or alive, etc, then surely they should have been more remorseful and empathetic to people who feels hurt by the way they have used Diana, and gave her such an awful time while she was alive, especially if Charlie is happy now, then go and be happy, don't insult the us and the public with such a stupid action as making Camilla Queen, she should have stayed as Duchy, not my Queen for sure, she is Camilla the mistress of Charlie! Don't tell me Queen Elizabeth II had nothing to do after P Philip died, and suddenly thought 'oh I must protect Camilla with announcement'. Seriously? QEII had millions of things to do, but because it was demanded of her to announce the message of what to call Camilla after her death, she had to give in, no, you are wrong, she didn't like Camilla, you are telling lies here, QEII didn't take Camilla under her wings, or want to be with her alone, she never respected Camilla. She had to accept her because Charlie demanded it. Spoiled brat got his way! If Charlie had not used this propaganda, QEII would worried about Camilla, and she would not have treated the public with propaganda messages, it was Charlie all along! Wake up whoever you are! We don't want another Queen! It is rubbish that QEII volunteered to announced this on her own terms, she was bullied into doing it, and she had to do it under duress, because whoever asked her to do so knew she was dying, shame on them, didn't preserve the Queen the Queen that we knew for the last 70 years, shame on them! Someone had to have suggested to her before she did it! Whoever asked her knew we would not accept Camilla as Queen! And yet, they still did it, which means they treated the public like idiots! We tolerated Duchy Camilla being accepted into the monarchy as that! Enough is enough! They are making it worse than before, because now, we know they are treating the public not only like idiots but ignoring the hurt and suffering of Diana, they don't care about her or the general public who loved and still love her, and their actions say, lets wiping away Diana altogether from history, hence, we, the public will always have our Queen Diana to keep her spirit alive when she can't speak for herself, she might be dead but she is still alive to those who hold her dear and love her still, more than we can say for Camilla, we don't like her, and will never like her, who has done nothing special, she is the gold digger here, not Diana! If this is disappointing for you, then stop reading my messages. Long live Queen Diana! William should have been King to take Diana's place! Plus, they are billionaires, and hardly need you to defend them. Unless you are Camilla herself writing this or has she asked you to do her dirty work for her?! Shame on you.
@@dragonfliesbutterfliesandb4367I don’t think I have read such a load of pish in ages. She is married to the king , therefore she is Queen. Queen consort is the same as being Queen, it is the lady married to the king . Also it is Duchess of Cornwall not duchy. How can someone be called a spoiled brat for wanting to marry the woman he loved for 30 years. It’s good to hear different opinions but when you spew ridiculous things , makes me wonder who the hell you are .
What do you think of Sophie, Countess Of Wessex?
She is Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh now.....
You mean Duchess of Edinburgh??
Duchess of Edinburgh now, not Countess anymore
Sophie is now known as Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Edinburgh 👑

Sophia and Edward are both hard-working Royals. Have definitely earned King Charles and Queen Camilla respect. ❤

Now the Dutchess of Edinburgh, I’ve always been a fan of Sophie, she’s seems down to earth and kind, like Prince Edward, Duke of Edinburgh
Princess Sophie is a no drama princess, that's why King Charles loves and admires his sister in law❤
SOPHIE IS A LOVELY LADY .

I thought, Sophie is now the Duchess of Edinburgh
Because Sophie was already up there in Balmoral with the queen 👑 when she passed.
Yes she is Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Edinburgh
Sophie is now Duchess of Edinburgh and she's a lovely lady. 🙂
With her loyalty to the Crown, she deserves all the accolades specially the Edinburgh title. 👌
Very much like Diana, isn't she? How The Royals do flirt with lives.
Amazing!
Uh no not like Diana at all. Her & Edward have a loving marriage and haven't cheated on each other. Sophie's also not a publicity wh*re.
She is not like Diana
Love her!
Sophie is a wonderful I don't think she Should have been with the family if you didn't invit's been a rock for that family too
She is Duchess of Edinburg.
