Meghan Markleis not the onlyactor in the royal family.
In 2009, Sophie Winkleman married Lord Frederick Windsor.
Frederick is the son of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent.

Prince Michael was Queen Elizabeth II’s first cousin, which made Frederick the queen’s cousin once removed.
Sophie, who is the half-sister of TV presenter Claudia Winkleman, was born and raised in London.
The ceremony was hosted at Hampton Court Palace.

It was much smaller in comparison to other royal weddings, with only 400 guests in attendance.
Throughout the ceremony, she found herself crying happy tears without avail.
“I wept throughout the whole thing,” she later said.

Before that, she landed the role of Debbie Levine in “Suzie Gold.”
“You have to make compromises in your career when you have a family.
So I do jobs in Britain, where I see them every week.”

“My granddaughter was two in August and I can’t wait to play with her.
I’m besotted and there will be lots of games.
I’m sure I’ll be just as besotted with the second one,” she said.

Winkleman believes that using apps for learning does more harm than good.
Winkleman’s concerns aren’t ungrounded.
Even more concerning is the possibility that it can hinder brain development.

On one hand, she’s an actor with a number of acting credits.
On the other, she’s a member of the British royal family.
And if she had her way, those two hands would never shake.

“And they didn’t find anything out about me.
They just knew me from my acting, which was quite important to me,” she added.
Sophie Winkleman’s experience is another story.

“I’ve only had positive, caring, warmth from all of them.”
Winkleman might be considered one of the royal family’s biggest cheerleaders.
The near-fatal crash was all thanks to a stag crossing the street.

An oncoming car swerved to avoid the animal and crashed into Winkleman’s vehicle.
In these moments, she did consider the possibility that she might die.
Meanwhile, Prince William was calling one of his friends on the air ambulance team.

In 2020, the Children’s Surgery Foundation welcomed her as a royal patron.
“Of course, when a child’s experiences are improved the whole family’s stress is alleviated.
Winkleman also became a royal patron of School-Home Support (SHS) that same year.

“Their work is intensive, but it can transform lives for life.
I wish SHS was in every school in England!
She credits the royal family’s advice for her excellent fundraising skills.

Speaking toTatlerin mid-2020, Winkleman admitted that it was a challenging time, especially for her daughters.
It was quite the conundrum.
I’m not doing brilliantly, that’s for sure,” Winkleman admitted.

“I really, really don’t like it all.
What’s wrong with an old-fashioned telephone call?”
Winkleman was actually supposed to start working on a theater production of her own when the pandemic hit.
“Theatre was always my most magical form of escapism as I grew up.
Another reason why she loves theater so much is because it offers something films never could.
And it’s an experience that can’t be replicated online,” she explained.
Sadly, no such thing ever happened.
Royal fans can rest easy, however there’s no bad blood between the two.
According to Winkleman, the two of them simply never got around to really getting to know each other.
Had things been different, the two of them might’ve become fast friends.
Oh, if only we could turn back time.
Later that year, Winkleman attended the queen’s funeral with the rest of the royal family.
