The Countess of Sussex visited Smerrill Dairy to meet farmers from across Gloucestershire to hear about the challenges they face. These farmers have been assisted by the Addington Fund - a charity of which Sophie is a patron - which has functioned for the last 20 years to support farmers and families in times of crisis.
In an adorable video released by the Royal Family, Sophie showed that she may be a royal, but she's still happy to get stuck into farm work as she helped feed a baby cow by hand with a huge bottle of milk.
For this royal engagement, the Countess wore a casual outfit that was perfect for farm work. Sophie wore a thick waxed navy and brown Barbour jacket with a matching pair of navy and brown rubber wellies from Ariat.
The Countess has been seen in these go-to wellies before and was pictured in the boots in 2022 when she went on another farm-based royal engagement. Despite wrapping up warmly, the Countess still looked chic and her half up hair and casually light make up looked perfect on the cold but sunny January morning.
Fans loved this sweet video of the Countess and took to social media to compliment Sophie and called her a 'hidden gem'
"She's just amazing! A real hidden gem and such an added bonus for the Royal family!!" said one commenter. "The Countess of Wessex is my favorite. The video is really great 👏🏼👏🏼" said another.
"Countess of Wessex, as always, taking a genuine interest in wherever/whatever her engagement is. Another very hard working Royal. 😊" agreed a third.
