SOPHIE SNUGGS
A close friend of the Middletons, Sophie, 40, is from the elite group of English farming families known as the 'Turnip Toffs' and has been part of the royal circle for years. In fact, she used to date Prince William's close pal, Thomas van Straubenzee - who was best man at his wedding and is Princess Charlotte's godfather. But, in 2018 she wed Robert Snuggs and had two very special guests - Prince George and Princess Charlotte - as part of her wedding party. Almost always by Kate's side, you'll see her at key royal events. Not to mention she lives a stone's throw away from William and Kate's Norfolk retreat, Anmer Hall.
Following her 'planned abdominal surgery' at The London Clinic in January, the Princess of Wales is taking a break from royal duties and isn't expected to return to work until after Easter.
