Commonwealth Day Fashion Through the Years: The Countess of Wessex

Sophie, Countess of Wessex

Having married into the Royal Family in 1999, Sophie, the Countess of Wessex has spent the years supporting The Queen and supporting several organisations specifically, focusing on charities that support people with disabilities and the prevention of blindness in developing countries.

Ahead of the 2021 Commonwealth Day, the Countess spoke to women of The Commonwealth on how women are supporting others in their communities as well as how to share skills and outcomes that help women become equally represented.

Without the traditional Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey this year due to the pandemic, Royal Central is looking at previous Commonwealth Day services the Countess has attended.

I have a passion for royals, royal history, and journalism, which led me to want to write for Royal Central.
