'SOPHIE IS THE DEFINITION OF DUTIFUL'
Emily Andrews
The ROYAL INSIDER

Inevitably, since the death of Queen Elizabeth and the illnesses of the King and Princess of Wales, the spotlight has fallen on other members of the Royal Family. None more so than the Duchess of Edinburgh.

Sophie has always been a hard worker, a stalwart of The Firm and charming besides. So it’s been great to see some of the important work she does, which previously has been lost in the Megxit furore, recognised and highlighted.

A case in point was her recent visit to Ukraine to show her solidarity with the men, women and children affected by the war since Russia invaded two years ago. The British government asked her to go, and she delivered a message on behalf of the King, in her meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Olena Zelenska, Ukraine’s president and first lady.
