Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, and Prince Edward: A Love Story Spanning 24 Years
Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, and Prince Edward have been happily married for 24 years since their low-key royal wedding in June 1999.
Their enduring relationship has not gone unnoticed, as royal expert Jenny Bond sheds light on how they have grown and changed together over the years.
Jenny Bond commends Sophie for her courage in accepting Edward’s proposal and joining the royal family.
After witnessing the divorces of Prince Charles and Princess Diana, the Yorks, and Princess Anne, it was no small decision for Sophie to become another royal bride.
However, according to Jenny, their age at the time they exchanged vows indicated a maturity that allowed them to make the right choice.

Describing Sophie, Jenny emphasizes her gentle and kind nature, highlighting how she quietly carries out her duties without seeking attention.
She has remained true to herself, showing compassion and discretion, and has even become like a daughter to the late Queen.
It is evident that both the Queen and the late Duke of Edinburgh held great affection for their son’s wife, Sophie.
As for Prince Edward, Jenny admits that she used to find him a bit pompous.
However, recent interactions and public engagements have shown a different side to him.
He now appears much more comfortable in his own skin, and this transformation may have been influenced by his wife, Sophie.
One example of his growth is his active involvement in the Duke of Edinburgh Award earlier this year, where he attended Buckingham Palace with confidence.
