SOPHIE Wessex is set to take on a number of the Queen’s old roles after becoming a second daughter to her, it has been reported.
The Countess, who is married to Her Majesty’s son Prince Edward, shared a unique bond with her mother-in-law.
They shared a dedicated work ethic as well as many of the same interests.
And as a gift from her late “mama,” Sophie will reportedly be handed a raft of patronages to continue her legacy.
It comes as…
- Prince Harry WILL be allowed to wear military uniform at Queen’s vigil
- Prince William says the Queen’s procession brought back heartbreaking memories of walking behind mum Diana’s coffin
- Kate and Wills reveal how kids George, Charlotte and Louis are coping after their great-grandmother’s tragic death

“Her Majesty admired Sophie’s quiet sense of duty, her strong work ethic and the way she balanced her public and family lives. They also shared many of the same interests.

“The Queen’s decision to pass on these patronages reflects the closeness of their bond.
“Sophie’s growing popularity with the public is also evident and she will take on a larger public profile in a new-look monarchy of King Charles.”
It’s understood Sophie is likely to adopt patronages the Queen held for the Women’s Institute and Dogs Trust.
The mum is already patron of over 70 charities and organisations – such as Childline and Blind Veterans UK – and is known for her dedication and empathy.

Both traits were displayed when she and Edward visited Manchester this week to view the floral tributes on display.
The Earl and Countess of Wessex met well-wishers at St Anne’s Square, where at one point Sophie broke down with emotion.
She was seen comforting a young man, Josh, who was standing with his mum, Sue.
After the exchange, Sue told Sky News: “The first time she came down, Josh passed the bouquet over and then she came back over before she went in the car and gave Josh another hug. And she laid the flowers over there.”
She added: “It was quite emotional to be honest. I’m trying to hold it in. I just thought it was the best thing. I wasn’t expecting Sophie to come over.”
Another woman said Sophie stopped to thank her for taking the time to say goodbye to Her Majesty today.

Steve Jobs’ Daughter Shares Then Deletes Meme Mocking iPhone 14’s Modest Upgrades
The meme is a popular one showing a man holding up a gifted shirt identical to one he’s already wearing. Jobs captioned the meme with “Me upgrading from iPhone 13 to iPhone 14 after Apple’s announcement today,” sharing it with her nearly half a million followers yesterday before deleting it.
The meme is sparked by customers’ belief that the new iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus feature FEW changes compared to the iPhone 13 and do not represent a worthwhile upgrade. The 6.1-inch iPhone 14 and the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus feature the same chip found in the iPhone 13 Pro, which comes with an additional GPU-core compared to the standard iPhone 13 models.
Other than a slight boost in performance, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus benefit from new camera features, including autofocus on the front-facing camera and improved low-light performance. On the iPhone 14 Plus, thanks to the larger size, customers will get the best battery life ever in any iPhone.
The iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus will be available for pre-order on Friday, September 9, and the iPhone 14 will be available next week, Friday, September 16. The larger iPhone 14 Plus will begin arriving to customers on Friday, October 7.
