Navigating public life after marrying into the Royal Family can often be a tough task - just ask Sophie Wessex.
The wife of the late Queen's youngest son Prince Edward, previously spoke out about how it "took her a while to find her feet" after transitioning from having a successful career in PR to a full-time royal.
But now many years on Sophie, who is celebrating her 58th birthday today, is often regarded as a safe pair of royal fans - and has even been described as the royal's secret weapon.
