Sophie Winkleman made a candid confession about her mother-in-law, Princess Michael of Kent, in a new interview.
Lady Frederick Windsor, 43, tied the knot with Lord Frederick Windsor in 2009, the son of Prince and Princess Michael of Kent.
As a minor member of the extended Royal Family, Sophie was able to continue her acting career after her wedding.
The half-sister of Claudia Winkleman shot to fame when playing Big Suze in Peep Show.

In a new interview, the royal praised her mother-in-law, Princess Michael of Kent, for organising her 2009 wedding.
However, she admitted that she didn’t choose her wedding dress and “didn’t know anyone” who attended.
Sophie and Frederick were married in the Chapel Royal at Hampton Court Palace in 2009.
The actress said: “I didn’t know anyone at my wedding. I had my best pals there but basically it was full of faces I’d never seen before.

“My mother- in-law, Princess Michael of Kent, took full personal charge of it all and did it brilliantly, including what dress I was wearing.”
Sophie also opened up in the interview about her opinions of the Royal Family.
She added: “[I’m] really good friends with all of them – that’s a really daft thing to say, but behind the camera they’re really fun, clever, kind people.
“I love Sophie Edinburgh, Sarah Chatto, Zara, the York girls, Tim and Princess Anne, Fergie, all the Kents and Gloucesters.

“I love Kate and William, but they’re so busy and don’t live in London, so I don’t see them much.”
Lady Frederick Windsor did not mention Prince Harry or Meghan Markle in the interview, however, she did reserve praise for King Charles.
She additionally told Tatler: “I spend a bit of time with him. You see how he works all day long, has a quick supper and then disappears until about 4am to write letters.
“He cares about so many things and he comes up with brilliant solutions.”
