Excellent! They look like Edward's!

I try not to compare Sophie with Diana. Sophie has her own style and personality and Diana had her own.

yes, you're right! diana was diana and sophie is sophie. just sophie used in the days of her wedding the same diana's hair, it is all.

I finally had a time, and took some scans from 2 books about Countess I own.

Quite lovely. Thank you for sharing.

 

[Molly2101]

Thank you very much for sharing those, Anna. I will always love the first photo of them together, it's so informal and such a lovely way of meeting. Sophie just got lucky and was in the right place at the right time!

These photos makes me giggle, and it is obviously captured as Edward was moving his head around but when you see where it looks like his eyes are looking it is amusing. "Eyes front" springs to mind.

Thanks for posting!

I wouldn't have realized that the first picture was Sophie if the title hadn't said so, she looks so different there!

haha i see what you mean. but when i see pics of that event i still can't believe she would arrive with a tan like that, looking like a squirrel in that dress.. she should have known better

 

[scooter]

I dint know what you mean by squirrel? But definitely some sunless tanner to fill in the bathing suit lines is in order!

She wasn't actually sipposed to be his tennis partner that day. The person he was supposed to play cancelled/didn't show up so she stepped in at the last minute. Worked out well for both of them in the end. Why shouldn't she have had a tan?

lol that's something completely different.. i obviously referred to the pre-lunch (dinner?..something) of last year's wedding!
oops and i mixed up animals haha i meant a chipmunk, as they have "tan lines". and i absolutely agree, she could have filled something in or thought about it beforehand

 

[Molly2101]

I love how Edward and Sophie met, it's really nice and just completely by chance. You are right NGalitzine, it did work out very well for them; they have been together 20 years this year.

 

[Molly2101]

I have stumbled across a video that Sophie recorded for the 50th Anniversary of The National Autistic Society in 2012. Can I just say how POSH she sounds?

I don't know where it was recorded but it looks beautiful.

A very nice message indeed and it allows you to see how proud HRH is to be Royal Patron of The National Autistic Society.

Sophie looks magnificent, though that leopard print shawl should go, and never appear again .

I wholly agree, I hope Sophie burnt it ceremoniously.

Thanks Anna for the links to Gibraltar galleries. I love seeing more images of Edward and Sophie, always a joy!

I have found one 1 pic of Sophie most likely from Monaco Grand Prix 2012.

You will find it here in Photo album:

I like that black dress, it's one of the many dresses Sophie wore to the Carribbean.

So it turns out Sophie's video for the National Autistic Society was filmed at Buckingham Palace. Chocolatefilms. It was likely filmed in Edward and Sophie's apartment and it's beautiful.

Merry Christmas!

Thank you so much for your help. I thought so, but couldn't find anything to confirm that... Was that the only pics from 2012 windsor show?
Oh and last one pic! If it's not appropriate here, I can later delete it...
