Duchess Sophie and her son James: More distance in public

James, Earl of Wessex, and Lady Louise are the two teenage children of Duchess Sophie and Prince Edward. However, Sophie is said to have distanced herself more and more from her 16-year-old son. A body language expert knows the reason.

Duchess Sophie, 58, and Prince Edward, 59, have two children together who are already teenagers: Lady Louise, 20, and James, Earl of Wessexwho celebrates his 16th birthday on Sunday, December 17, 2023.

Dynamics between Duchess Sophie and James, Viscount Severn

However, according to body language expert Judi James, the relationship between Sophie and her son has changed as he has gotten older. Speaking to the British “Express”, she analyzed the dynamic between the two and stated that the Duchess had already distanced herself from her “maternal role” when it came to James. As non-working royals, Louise and James would enjoy more freedom than other members of the royal family.

Sophie’s withdrawal from her maternal role

In this regard, the expert referred to Sophie’s “willpower to withdraw”. She says:

Royal mothers seem to be a good example of a classic parenting style, where the job is to raise young, energetic children who are then encouraged to become independent as quickly as possible, especially the young ones… almost like an act of survival .

According to her analysis, she not only observed this dynamic between Duchess Sophie and her son James, but this was also the case with other royals such as Catherine, Princess of Wales, 41, and Prince George, 10. The moment George started wearing suits like those of his father Prince William, 41, his parents tended to “gently decline” more and more displays of affection such as holding hands and cuddling.

This is a mechanism in the behavior of royal mothers to strengthen the independence and self-confidence of their sons. They would step back and not allow a “natural fear or desire for protection” to inhibit them.
