Weird - William and Kate were supposed to do this engagement.

I am not sure if that is correct as the Wessex name was on the plaque they uncovered.

I think it might be a simple misunderstanding - people were told a Prince and his wife was coming and they immediately through it was William and Catherine?

I think if you read the article they assumed it was The Cambridges some of the stall owners but it was always the Wessexes but the article is very lovely and as usual S&E impress.

I think people naturally assume (and most likely hope) that when they’re told a prince and his wife are visiting that it is The Cambridge’s as they’re obviously very popular. I’m sure once they saw how charming Edward and Sophie were, they were more than happy to see it wasn’t the Cambridge’s. The Wessex’s are getting more and more high profile over the last year and it’s likely been very good for them.

Nice to see them doing a joint engagement as it’s rare for them to do so. Hopefully they will do more as it’s so nice to see it.

Loved the photos of Sophie playing the racing game and even funnier to read she did it well. I’m terrible at those types of games, even though I can actually drive a car ��

Both photos are lovely of the Countess, wearing the robes and signing her photo. Sophie is one of my favorite members of the British Royal Family.
