Sophie and Edward spent the duration of lockdown at their home Bagshot Park in Surrey.
During the lockdown, the Countess of Wessex was seen undertaking several engagements including attending a Women’s Institute meeting at a pub in Surrey and engaging in several video call meetings.
She has been praised for being a hardworking member of the Royal Family, for instance, in 2019 alone, she carried out 236 official engagements.
In June, Sophie gave a rare interview to day Times, in which she spoke about her transition from a career in PR to full-time working royal.
When asked about her workload increasing in the wake of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s exit from the Royal Family, she explained everyone had their own duties.
She told the Sunday Times; “We’ve all got our own little portfolios. I don’t see anything changing, but if we’re asked to do more … I don’t know because it hasn’t really happened.”
