Dressed in a dark printed dress and a black blazer, Sophie made a beeline for a royal fan who had been waiting in the rain outside the restaurant late at night to hand her some flowers. She rushed to greet the woman, saying: “You’re busy getting wet out here!”
She then thanked her for the flowers and said it was “so kind” of her.
Royal fans were impressed with the sweet encounter and took to the comment section on Facebook to praise her.
One user gave her a two-word nickname, calling her a “hidden gem”.
They wrote: “Sophie and Edward: hidden gems!”
Another one said: “SOPHIE is just LOVELY.”
A third person commented: “What a polite, gracious woman, recognising the situation others are in.”
Another user added: “A true member of the royal family, does wonders behind the scenes of publicity.”
A fifth one chimed: “Sophie is both graceful & a true ambassador. The late queen certainly knew it.”
