- On 6 January 1999, Prince Edward and Sophie Rhys-Jones held a press conference and photoshoot in the gardens of St James's Palace, having announced that morning that they were engaged to be married. The pair made the cameras wait before allowing them to see the ring on Sophie's hand, and Prince Edward was reluctant to meet the press' requests to see the royal couple kiss. The future Countess of Wessex, meanwhile, was asked how she felt at the prospect of joining the royal family.

"Diamonds are a girl's best friend." "No, you're my best friend." Aww.
A very quiet down to earth Royal couple- a very nice change
HRH Prince Edward has a great sense of humor. That was a lovely interview.
They are adorable!! Still happy after all these years!!💕
Edward is the only one of the 4 children to stay married first time to Sophie an amazing couple. Still in love with each other 25 years later
The press are quite annoying and ask the most inane questions then don't even allow Prince Edward to finish responding!!
The couple managed that splendidly though. Edward in particular very skillfully conducted that whole experience extremely smoothly and competently whilst also remaining attentive to Sophie's comfort levels.
It's quite obvious that they both got to know one another thoroughly and built a great connection based on cultivated love, mutual respect and an intimate friendship.
I think Prince Edward made the wisest best choice of a life partner. Better than siblings did. She looks like Diana...
Sophie fashioned herself after Diana
She's better
A lovely couple!
Wow, Prince Edward was so young and good looking!
1999, I came to USA, wow, I was 21 at that time.
I was 16 nearly 17 then my first royal wedding I remember watching and since then I’ve been a massive fan of Edward and Sophie my favourite royals
They are beautiful together!!!
Looks like Princess D and son Prince William ❤
Ma per niente ‼️ Diana e William sono veramente belli, di classe e affascinanti.
El hijo que eligio mejor a su conyuge. Al dia de hoy aun estan juntos y han hecho una hermosa familia. Sin duda una gran eleccion.
I really like her.
Bellissima coppia
Lovely ❣
Looks do like Diana there
They r all from the same families and from the same area same time the style and looks are blunt to be similar. It’s a good observation
@@Literallyarealhumanthere's almost 20 years between Charles and Di's wedding and Edward and Sophie's.
@@Literallyarealhuman Sophie is not from British aristocracy and is not from the same family as Diana.
Prince William seems to have taken after his Uncle Prince Edward. May both marriages continue to be filled with love, good health, laughter and blessings.
She looked very matured in some interview
Couple of lil' cuties 😘
Wednesday 6th January 1999
She reminds me of Jill Dando in this
Yes she does. She was real nervous after Jill Dando’s death.
The press are like a pack of wolves
She does look like Diana !
He’s like his mum
Sophie era già così già da allora, nel senso che dimostra l' età attuale.
I honestly believe Sophie & Edward are in love & happily married because they chose each other & took their time to get married. Curses & pushy royal standards aside, this is how you have an equal, loving marriage.
Though I still believe if Charles had a backbone, he wouldn’t have had the issues he did. No one cares that he loves Camilla, but to bring a young girl into the firm, use her, leave her adrift & then cheat is where people are mad at him. Trying to have your cake & eat it too.
Only one of queens kids to not divorce and still in love all those years later and are just the best parents to Louise and James
He required an aristocratic virgin to produce heirs, and by what I’ve seen/heard/read, at that time, ‘there weren’t many from which to choose.’
If Camilla had respected her own and certainly the Royal couple's marital vows, perhaps they would've had a fighting chance but we'll never know that.
Although he had several women on his roster the others weren't as bold & pushy as Camilla, close witnesses have divulged.
Charles has always romanticised the Edwardian era by all accounts, and believes in his right to mistresses.
Camilla is fine with that lifestyle as she had the same arrangement in her first marriage, so they make a better fit, I suppose.
Princess Diana didn't deserve that as is rightfully pointed out. She just desperately wanted to be wholly loved and never to experience divorce because of her childhood.
The irony is that she believed in her naïvetè that this was the one man that couldn't ever divorce!!
Charles did set a new historic precedent though.
