According to analysts, Kate’s “secret formula” for success was stolen from another senior member of the Royal Family.
The public has admired the future Queen’s dedication to her duty and unflinching support for Prince William. While Sophie, Countess of Wessex has spent years polishing her trade as a frontline royal, experts believe she was inspired by and guided by Sophie, Countess of Wessex.
The Royal Family’s “secret weapon,” Prince Edward’s wife, recently celebrated her 57th birthday.
Kate celebrated her 40th birthday barely a week after turning 40.
Despite their 17-year age difference, the two women appear to enjoy a nice and playful relationship.
Sophie, who is also thought to be close to the Queen, recently expressed her support for Kate by attending her Christmas carol concert at Westminster Abbey.
Sophie and Kate may have bonded over the fact that they both had quite ordinary upbringings.
Sophie, like Kate, grew up in a middle-class family with none of the trappings of royalty.
Before marrying into the Firm, both ladies went to school and worked conventional jobs.
Sophie worked in public relations before marrying Edward in 1999, and Kate worked as an accessories buyer at Jigsaw before marrying William in 2011.
Both women have handled the responsibilities of royal life admirably since joining the Firm.
This has included conducting innumerable public appearances without incident, resulting in both women being widely regarded as huge assets to the Firm.
Sophie appears to have been glad to show Kate the ropes upon her admission into the Royal Family, given she had 12 years of experience with her.
Judi James, a body language specialist, previously told Express.co.uk: “Sophie’s technique appears to have been stolen by Kate as well, since she has so far managed to straddle the tight line of generating positive but manageable curiosity.
“Many of the pictures of the two women together show Sophie face-checking Kate with strong spells of watchful-looking eye contact, as if she’s trying to be semi-maternal.
When the two women walk together, Sophie projects the stronger signals of relaxed confidence while Kate smiles happily at her side. “There is some mirroring when the two women walk together, but it’s primarily Sophie projecting the stronger signals of relaxed confidence while Kate smiles happily at her side.”
