The Duke of Edinburgh has reportedly held a pragmatic view on how royal duties impact his chosen partner – a perspective that shaped his early romance with West End star Ruthie Henshall and later influenced his marriage to ***** ss Sophie.
West End star Ruthie Henshall opened up about her relationship with Edward, which took place from 1988 to 1993. During a recent appearance on Sunday Brunch, she discussed her newly released memoir, The Showgirl and the Prince.
King Charles' brother supposedly told her that "in a perfect world" he would have "two wives: one for the job, and one for the woman you loved - because you wouldn't want the woman you love [to go] through the job."
The comment suggests that Edward was aware of the toll it would take being part of the royal family, especially with Ruthie's career flourishing. She admitted: "It was never going to work."
Therefore, it's likely that the Prince was equally wary of ***** ss Sophie giving up her career in PR when they married in 1999.
