It's just that Edward does not look like himself.I have never seen him like that! That's just my opinion.:)
 
I love Edward's sunhat! It makes me giggle.

I have found some BEAUTIFUL images of Sophie in Anguilla visiting a school. They are so wonderful, and shows Sophie's maternal side and her excellent ability with children. They are so lovely.

Visit of HRH The Countess of Wessex to Blossom Centre

These are beautiful images, three of my favourites are: Sophie 1, Sophie 2 & Sophie 3

Not many of our British royals would get down on their knees, in a white dress and embrace young children and look so happy about it. I adore this woman!

Another Facebook link is available with a few more images of their visit to Anguilla, this time including Edward. I just think the images of Sophie are so lovely.

These are wonderful, as usual. I love the pictures of Sophie with the kids, playing and cuddling on the floor.
 
:previous: Agreed, yes. This is a beautiful picture, full of joy and love.:flowers:

The best pics of Sophie ever! Melted my heart....:wub::wub::wub::butterfly:
Bold- I 100% agree! I can only think of a few others in the BRF, and indeed in the public eye, who would do something like that. No doubt about it, Sophie clearly has a gift for bringing sunshine! Also she is clearly a mother. If I did not know better, I would have said that the children she was cuddling were her own.....

FYI, Blossom Center is a school for children with severe special needs....

Beautiful pictures, Molly2101! :flowers:
This picture has to be one of my favourite pictures of Sophie ever.

That picture reminds me of my days as a para-professional in a classroom for kids who have severe/multiple exceptionalities. Sophie would fit in so well in that type of environment. She literally shines in that picture.

I think there are a few people in general who would just get down on the floor with children in their best attire and just go nuts, playing and giving the kids the attention that they need. Sophie is a very special person, because it really does take someone truly special to have no fears of giving oneself to those who may need a little sunshine. It's not hard to see that any children simply radiate love, but I noticed in my years of working with those who have exceptionalities, that they are really unafraid to share their emotions. When I was being interviewed for an internship, a girl came into the principal's office, and came straight to me to give me a hug. She's never seen me before, but she felt like giving a little bit of love, and wasn't scared to do it. I have a feeling Sophie understands that, and reciprocates with no qualms.

I know, it's so evident how much she enjoys being a mother. I am so glad she managed to have children, as since she became a mother she has changed, as do many women when they have children. It's a beautiful transformation.

I am glad you all agree how beautiful those images were. Sophie is a treasure and a great asset to the Royal Family. I hope someday Catherine willl be able to do this and show how natural she is, but I can imagine it takes a while as at the minute she is most likely very self-consious.

Sophie just appears to be so lovely, from what we are able to see of her. Of course we will never know what she is like behind closed doors, no matter how many things we can read in an article, whether it's positive or negative. From the public perspective, she comes across as very genuine and enjoys visiting places. I know there were those images of a supposed outburst at her bodyguard, but I am unsure whether I can rely on those as they are so out of sequence. Anywho, beautiful images of a beautiful lady thoroughly enjoying the time with the young children.

I would love to meet Sophie, even just to shake her hand!
 
I have come across a few galleries of Edward and Sophie's visit to St Lucia. The best part of the images is that Sophie is wearing trousers during the visit to the Museum. I could count on one hand the amount of times Sophie has been seen wearing trousers in public. She looks lovely of course!

Royal Visit St Lucia
 
I discovered that video a few weeks ago, and I loved the carnival song, particularly Sophie's reaction when the man singing it say something about breasts. He used a much more crude word for them, and Sophie found it hilarious.

I also love the moment when Edward and Sophie are playing the steel drums. Cute.
 
LOTS of pics from visit to Antigua and Barbuda!!

Thank you annaelfka For posting lots of Amazing Pics of Earl & Countess of wessex ,,, the Countess looks so quiet elegant :) .
 
I jumped from joy!
I finally found pictures from first 2 days of Royal visit to St Lucia.
Enjoy!!
ROYAL VISIT
 
Thanks Anna. I love Sophie's hatbox! It's huge! I have visions of her sitting at home in her dressing room before these tours and pairing hats with outfits.

Major awkward moment! I just noticed in the pictures of them at the art gallery that they put a picture of Margarita in the family tree as Lady Louise. That is so bad! It would not have been so bad it not been Lady Louise's PARENTS visiting. That is so awkward. I hope they corrected them...I would be a bit annoyed if they had got the wrong picture of my daughter.

You can see it's Margarita's picture under Edward and Sophie on the wall. I genuinely cannot believe they did that. Surely if they googled Louise they would have seen that wasn't her! They got the picture of everyone else correct...

Oh my goodness the photos of Sophie with the children in the "Untitled Album" link are beautiful.

The image of the little girl fanning her is adorable. This one.
