Sophie said her children had helped her in marathon training”My son likes a run, but he beats me, which is annoying. The other two are older and they are not sure they want to be seen running with their mum.”
In 2021, she revealed that Ella hoped to be a doctor, sharing an incredibly rare photo of the teenager as they donated blood together. “This is my daughter. She is 17 today,” Sophie penned.
Sophie’s daughter hopes to become a doctor”She wants to be a doctor and insisted that both her parents go and give blood with her for the first time. I don’t like needles…at all. But the staff at @givebloodnhs at Westfield in Shepherds Bush were so lovely and reassuring. And it didn’t hurt at all! Happy birthday Ella.”
Famous sisterSophie isn’t the only star in her family as her younger sister, Kate, is a noted economist, who came up with the ‘doughnut economic’ model.
A diagram of the model, fittingly shaped as a doughnut, explains how the centre of the hole represents the life essentials that people lack while the other layers are planetary boundaries that could lead to an ecological collapse.

She has just been awarded an honorary doctorate by the Belgian university @kuleuven for her work rethinking economics. Which is how I discovered she is Professor Kate Raworth!
