'What's in your handbag, ma'am?' Sophie Quizzed by Inquisitive Little Girl

[cinrit]

Along with asking her age, prodding a woman as to what's inside her handbag is considered one of the most forward things you can ever ask a lady.

Nonetheless, the Countess of Wessex was more than happy to tell - and even show - one inquisitive six-year-old what was inside hers during a visit to the charity PACT, Parents and Children Together, at Dorchester Abbey in Oxfordshire today.

When little Nicheala asked the countess what was inside her tiny red baguette clutch, Sophie began to take out the contents, revealing an assortment of make-up and face creams, including some Trish McEvoy products.

That Sophie just kneeled down and started pulling things out of her handbag to show the child is just lovely. I think she's such an under-appreciated Royal Family member-- and I love her genuine ability to hunker down, muck in and really enjoy these visits.
