Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh became a key member of the Royal Family because she fits perfectly into King Charles III’s plans. According to Charles himself, he wants to slim down the royalty with the intention of reducing costs and will only keep the most valuable royal members.
After Prince Philip passed away, Sophie became closer to the royal family, particularly to the late Queen Elizabeth II. As a result, she quickly earned her spot as an indispensable member of British royalty and it looks like things will continue that way as she is now getting closer to Prince William with whom she attended the premiere of the documentary ‘Rhino Man’ at Battersea Power Station.
Although many people commented that it was unusual for them to attend public events together, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliam pointed out that this is the ultimate sign their relationship has improved over the years. In an interview with FEMAIL, Richard said that Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh is the new key member of the family:
“William and Catherine have a unique profile as the world’s most glamorous royal couple with enormous soft power reach. Sophie has clearly established herself as their indispensable support.”
Sophie’s charming attitude and commitment to the royals made her one of the most valuable members of the British royalty and she fits perfectly with the slimmed-down monarchy King Charles III aspires to.
