Sophie has been getting a lot of press coverage recently and I love it. The images of her visiting the school in Estonia are lovely and always good to see the royals support the British army.

Edward is also fun to watch on engagements and he always look so stuffy but tries his best to engage with people. I'm not saying he doesn't do a good job, but he never appears quite as relaxed as his wife.

Prince Edward to attend Royal Cornwall Show

Edward is attending the show for the second time, 10 years after his first visit. Sophie was meant to go with him but cancelled on the morning of the visit, likely due to pregnancy sickness but her pregnancy was not public at that time.
