Sophie Windformna Leading lady

THE BRITISH ROYAL ALWAYS STEALS THE SHOW ON SCREEN, BUT IN REAL LIFE SHE IS ANYTHING BUT A DRAMA QUEEN

-  Kylie Walters

She counts Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes among her fans, Timothée Chalamet and Hugh Grant among her co-stars and the Princess of Wales and Duchess of Edinburgh among her family and friends. While Sophie Winkleman is part of an exclusive club of actresses that have married into aristocracy, this British royal has bucked the trend, not only continuing her career but seeing it thrive.

Lady Frederick Windsor, who is the daughter-in-law of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent, is currently starring as the Duchess of Rochester in the absorbing British period drama, Belgravia: The Next Chapter. With her natural poise, beauty and elegance, the role is one that Winkleman seems made for.

“It’s a brilliant part because as an actor I always like to play a role where two things ceremony. Just two days later the newlyweds were on a plane to LA, where Winkleman was cast as Ashton Kutcher's girlfriend Zoey in Two and a Half Men.
