"A friend of mine managed to find me a security guard who he personally trusted to stay at my studio, as someone did go through my bins and was hanging around there at night! The invasion of my privacy was very daunting," she added.Sophie's job was responsible for the couple crossing paths in 1987. She was working as a press officer at Capital Radio and the late Queen Elizabeth II's son Edward was dating Sophie’s friend.
