Sophie Wessex Could Become The Duchess Of Edinburgh

Sophie Wessex could be on the verge of taking on a more senior role in the royal family.

The Countess of Wessex could become the Duchess of Edinburgh if Prince Edward takes on Prince Philip’s title of Duke of Edinburgh.

The new title for Sophie was the same courtesy title that was held by the Queen from her wedding in 1947 until her ascension to be Queen in 1952.

The palace is pushing Sophie Wessex into a more prominent position.

According to a royal correspondent, Roya Nika, the royal editor for the Sunday Times, the Countess of Wessex is getting more of a platform.

It had been feared that Sophie would be cut out of the public eye under King Charles’ slimmed-down monarchy.

However, Ms. Nika insisted that her place was safe and, in fact, the Wessexes are suddenly being pushed to the forefront.

Trending:

Sophie has been doing the same work she has been doing for years, a lot of work with s**ual violence and conflict and prevention of blindness.

The royal expert continued, she’s been doing these things for 10 years or more.

But now, in a streamlined monarchy, there are fewer people around, so she’s getting more of a platform.

The palace is definitely pushing it because she’s a good news story for the royal family.

For the past week, the Countess has been on a solo royal tour to Botswana, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Rwanda.

Sophie became the first member of the royal family to visit the Democratic Republic of Congo on a trip that had been planned for many months before the death of the Queen.

In the Congo, the Countess of Wessex addressed the impact of s**ual and gender-based violence in the conflict, a cause close to her heart.

During the tour, she also celebrated Malawi’s success in eliminating the infectious disease trachoma, which is known to cause blindness.

Sophie said that the Queen, dear mother-in-law, was so happy to hear the news before her death.

It seems that the palace is keen to keep Sophie in the public eye.

The Wessexes are suddenly being pushed to the forefront, and Sophie is getting more of a platform.

She is a good news story for the royal family, and her work with s**ual violence and conflict and prevention of blindness is invaluable.

Sophie’s new title as the Duchess of Edinburgh could be a significant step up in her role in the royal family.

It remains to be seen how she will handle this new position, but it seems that she is more than capable of rising to the challenge.

Do you think Sophie will shine in her new role and title?
