Sophie's dynamic decor

As Sophie shared her message beaming at the camera, behind her, fans got a glimpse of the vibrant red wallpaper covered in flamboyant gold detailing.

Next to the wall was the most gorgeous hardwood cabinet covered in ornate detailing in a floral and leaf design.

The striking piece was the perfect companion to another fabulous piece of furniture: a wooden chair with a beautifully crafted back.

Sophie and Edward's incredible home

As well as its striking interiors the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh's sprawling home boasts several amenities including a beautiful conservatory, extensive landscaped gardens, stables, and a private lake. 

The estate also features a modern kitchen, period elements within the rooms, and multiple garden areas connected by paved walkways.

Bagshot Park's surrounding 51 acres of grounds - that cross the Surrey and Berkshire borders - are so vast they eventually lead to Windsor Great Park where Windsor Castle is situated. 

Sophie and Edward have been raising their family at Bagshot Park since the late 1990s.
