On March 14, 2024, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh visited the Arena Birmingham to attend the day three of the All-England Open Badminton Championships. The Duke and Duchess met with volunteers who make the event possible, local club members, and took part in a badminton match of mixed doubles.
Very well and relaxed. I'd only prefer her to have snickers navy blue as well instead of the white ones.
ReplyDeleteWhite snickers are back.

Not sneakers, but tennis shoes. e.
DeleteBelle allure de Sophie quand elle porte un pantalon plutôt qu'une robe ; même si elle a des cheveux fins, j'aime bien quand elle les lâche ; je remarque qu'elle a un peu forcé sur le blush à moins qu’elle l’ait mal appliqué ?!
ReplyDeleteA smart and practical outfit for the visit.
ReplyDeleteNice natural makeup.
To me Edward has lost weight in the face in recent months.
Hope he's ok.
I've noticed that too. With all the sickness in the BRF lately, let's hope he is well. He just turned 60 this month.
DeleteI like Sophie’s casual outfit. This seems like the type of engagement we have often seen Kate do; I am glad Sophie is also able to model fitness.

I noticed Sophie is growing her hair out. I've only seen her in short hair. I think it's a nice change and it suits her.
ReplyDeleteIt is a very longtime ago since Duchess Sophie her hair was short. It was when she got married and maybe a little time after that, but how many years her hair is like it is now ? Since she has an almost adult daughter by now you can calculate how long ago her hair was short.
DeleteI have not been following her for all those years. This is the first time I have seen her with such long hair. I think she may have been wearing it tied back or in a ponytail not loose like in these photos.
Delete@ Cate. I agree but, she should avoid eye shadow that is too shiny. It accentuates the wrinkles around her eyes, better use matt not too dark
ReplyDeleteeye shadow.
I think Edward lost weight not only in the face but allover his body. Did you see how wide his blazer is ?
I love Sophie's hair like that. I also love her outfit which is appropriate for the visit and for her participation in a badminton game.
ReplyDeleteQuel charmant couple ; cela fait quelque temps que j'ai remarqué que l'époux de Sophie avait beaucoup minci ; j'espère que sa santé ne se dégrade pas !
ReplyDeleteThese two do an excellent job for the U.K. They always look interested, at ease and affable. Sophie gets better with age.
ReplyDeleteYes! You are right, Mary!
DeleteThey are fantastic ambassadors for the UK and great support for King Charles. Good on them
DeleteNice casual look today. css
ReplyDeleteSophie looks great and is perfectly dressed for this event. I love her hair down like this--it is very flattering this way. Edward reminds me more and more of Prince Philip all the time. He looks good here--wish he had stepped onto the court to play like Sophie did or wish we had photos of him joining in too.

Sophie ist in jeder Hinsicht eine tolle Frau ... Diana könnte heute in etwa so aussehen ...
