    Earl and Countess of Wessex and Family Current Events 10: November 2018 - March 2023

    I thought it was lovely to see Kate and Sophie together in a zoom call to those Australian nurses. They seem to have a nice friendship.

    Finding Freedom: Harry and Meghan and the Making of A Modern Royal Family

    'Thoroughly modern royals'? H&M are not even Royalty even more! And what are they doing that makes them 'modern'? they dont have any firm plans in place other than swanning around Hollywood. Term is not exactly original either I remember Sophie and Edward being described as 'modern royals'...

    Earl and Countess of Wessex and Family Current Events 10: November 2018 - March 2023

    I also like how Sophie is doing it for the NHS, it is clear how much Sophie still appreciates the NHS and is grateful for their incredible treatment / support of her and Louise even after all these years. Ditto re her support of of the air ambulance service. In fairness to the Daily Mail...

    Earl and Countess of Wessex and Family Current Events 10: November 2018 - March 2023

    Yeah you could be right, it just seems a bit of coincidence that there were all these articles (yes I know take with a pinch of salt) earlier in the year with rumors that Edward / Sophie will have a higher profile with the Sussexs gone. We will have to see what happens following Covid (whenever...

    Earl and Countess of Wessex and Family Current Events 10: November 2018 - March 2023

    I agree, I look shocking zoom lol. Good to see the Daily Mail has picked up on Sophie and Edward's work with the NHS. Dare I say it, they do seem to be getting more attention since Megxit, which I am pleased to see they are finally being recognized more in the press.

    Earl and Countess of Wessex and Family Current Events 10: November 2018 - March 2023

    I quite like his green suits, I think he pulls it off quite well, makes a change from the constant drab grey suits that you see a lot of now days by men. That said many of the double breasted suits need to be burned... I love a good quirky / wacky tie.

    Royal Security

    I am glad Canada are standing their ground, at the end of the these two are the British Royal's family problem and the buck need to stop with the UK. So it would be very unfair to shift their expenses to an innocent country that has unexpectedly found themselves in this position. I do stress...

    Bummer, I guess they have their own engagement, patrons etc they have to do.

    Edinburgh Family Picture Thread

    Question, do Edward and Sophie do a lot of joint engagements? I really like the Wessex family too, I never paid much attention to them but Sophie got me interested when I saw how well she gets on the Queen. I have only started following them in the past few months through the Daily Mail (yes, I...

    The Future of the British Monarchy 1: 2018 - 2022

    The fake shiekh scandal happened in early 2001, she then took a non client facing role (something like that) and I believe Edward's business did start making profit by the early 2000s. I know Charles was staunchly opposed but Philip and the Queen were initially supportive. I do not think they...

    The Future of the British Monarchy 1: 2018 - 2022

    I dont think there needs to be panic yet about the increasing ageing royalty. There are still variables, Meghan / Harry could possibly become part of the Royal Family again which would bump up the list. After all Sophie and Edward had a change of heart and ditched their careers to become full...

    Oh thats good he is still around, esp considering her mother died fairly young (by today's standards anyway).

    Relationships between Members of the British Royal Family

    ^cheers for that, I must have got the dates totally mixed up. I still feel a bit sorry for Andrew though.

    Relationships between Members of the British Royal Family

    I thought it was a bit odd that they mentioned his birthday on social media given he has pretty much gone to ground and all the controversy surrounding his birthday in the media. Yeah am sure Andrew would be hurt, especially as his own mother was not there. I know Edward goes skiing every...

    Wow that picture seems to feel like a lifetime ago, hard to believe James will be a teenager this year. I know her mother died many years ago but is her father still alive?

    Relationships between Members of the British Royal Family

    I guess you could be right but it does seem to be a bit convenient as especially (well according to reports) that Fergie was desperate to make up the numbers. Also I remember reading when Charles was in his tour of NZ (when he had to stand Andrew down) that he became really angry and also...

    Relationships between Members of the British Royal Family

    Has Andrew fallen out with his siblings? None of them are going to Andrew's 60th, even the Queen isnt going- Edward's skiing with his family and the rest all have engagements. I know there was no longer to be a public celebration but it strikes me odd that none of them are going as they are all...

    Earl and Countess of Snowden To Divorce: February 18, 2020

    To be blame the Queen is a bit unfair, lets remember of these divorced wives - Autumn, Serena's, Fergie's and Diana's parents are all divorced,children of divorced parents are more likely to divorce themselves. It does seem rather telling given both Kate and Sophie Wessex's parents are not...

    Earl and Countess of Snowden To Divorce: February 18, 2020

    Yes they may be happier and probably is for the best but its still sad to see a breakdown of a marriage, royal or not, without wanting to sound mushy, all that love gone that was there on their wedding day.

    Earl and Countess of Snowden To Divorce: February 18, 2020

    The cynic in me was also thinking that, bit of a coincidence that they announce their divorce just before there youngest is about to finish school. Their marriage could have been in trouble for sometime, like Autumn and Peter's but we do not know what goes on behind closed doors. Very sad for...

    Earl and Countess of Wessex and Family Current Events 10: November 2018 - March 2023

    ^I think she is starting to get more recognition given the current situation of the Royal Family, Sophie's engagements seemed to be mentioned more in the Daily Mail in the past year or so, the cynic in me though thinks its a good PR move by the Royal Family. I would like to see them more get...

    The Future of the British Monarchy 1: 2018 - 2022

    I think the Royal Family will put more emphasis on Sophie and Edward this year, Royal family need some good PR at the moment and those two give off a positive vibe these days. I know Edward's had a sketchy past with the public and they were both a bit of a PR disaster themselves backed in the...

    Peter and Autumn Phillips To Divorce: February 11, 2020

    Ok so they are not technically royals, but they still are the Queen's grandson and his wife, in fact those two gave the Queen her first great-grandchild. . I imagine that the Daily Mail or The Sun did some digging after Autumn wasnt pictured at Sandringham. The Daily Mail have managed to dig...

    Peter and Autumn Phillips To Divorce: February 11, 2020

    Is she actually Catholic though or was she just brought up Catholic in Canada? I mean she could have already lapsed before she converted to the Church of England, I dont know much about her background but I cant see her going back to her Catholic faith after all these years, especially if her...

    Peter and Autumn Phillips To Divorce: February 11, 2020

    ^I believe what The Sun is saying, they have probably just grown apart, although it sounds like Autumn initiated the divorce, she might have been unhappy for whatever reason. Sad but these things happen. They are only minor royals but surely if there were other issues (affairs etc) in their...
