Sara Boyce

Do you doubt that she was actually in Ireland for a public engagement or something that you need people to post pictures to show it?
I haven't been a meber of this forum for very long but I can see that the people here are very good with posting pictures as events happen. I don't think you need to remind anyone here to post pictures. It seems that people here are very good without having to be reminded.
Why don't you try to find pictures and post them instead of demanding that others do? It really frustrates me when people keep asking for pictures to be posted and not bothering to search for pictures themselves and posting them.

Sophie visit to Northern Ireland was kept secret for security reasons. So I doubt that the photo people had advanced knowledge to sent a photographer. I looked for photos and couldn't find any.
OT - It's not that we are sitting on our hands, its just that some people know where to look for really rare photos. There is really no harm in asking, when you need help.

Ed and Soph on Holiday

Does anyone know if Sophie and Edward will be undertaken a private holiday, before they go to Sandringham?

I was wondering what the Queen would think, if Edward and Sophie decide to spend Christmas with the Rhys-Jones this year. It is only fair, the Windsors cannot monopolise them and they even get them for Easter.

 

[Martine]

I think it's just tradition that all the royals are together at Sandringham every Christmas, maybe Edward & Sophie visit the rhys jones' for New Year or so? I guess it's really not easy not say no to the Queen

 

[sara1981]

im not sure answer that question,claire

Earl and Countess of Wessex been gone to Sandringham for Christmas every year at Queen's christmas church services im sure if both would took baby Louise to Sandringham this year or dont wait and see if she would took it.

Earl and Countess of Wessex been gone Easter services at Windsor Castle often but Sophie have hard time see her parents for visiting following schedules to do wait and see what on for Sophie and Edward.

Or perhaps the Rhys-Jones are invited to Sandringham to join the Windsors?

Earlier this year Sophie's parents were invited to Ascot, so perhaps the Queen is bridging the two families so that Edward and Sophie won't feel that they are "forgetting" or "foregoing" her family for his and allowing Louise to spend the holidays with both sets of grandparents?

 

[HMQueenElizabethII]

It will be nice to see The Queen and Sophie's parents.So,Louise can be with both her grandparents.

Here are some more photos of Sophie at the BT ChildLine Awards. Source : Hello!
I read in the Mirror that Sophie, Edward and Louise will be joining the Queen at Sandringham from the 24th only.

Louise will attend with her parents at christmas mass????

 

[kelly9480]

Louise is not going to be at the church. It's cold and she's unlikely to remain quiet throughout the ceremony.

 

[sara1981]

i like see the Little Louise at Sandringham im wishes if she would have coat with her they if her dad would carry with her or her mum the Sophie? i understood!

I agree Kelly, I don't think Louise will be at church either. From what I can recall, I don't think any other royal babies as young as Louise have attended the church service at Sandringham in recent years. Sophie and Edward like to keep Louise out of the limelight, so I don't think we'll see much of her in her youth.

Who knows, maybe there'll be a photograph of her on the Wessex's Christmas card this year?

Doesn't she look wonderful? I love her black heels, they look so elegant.

 

[HMQueenElizabethII]

Oh!I'm sure that Sophie's really looked like pregnant in these pics.Do you think so?

 

[rchainho]

I agree with you.
