#if Sophie isn't intorduced by the end of this season I will scream

[my-bard-is-too-bardalicious]

Finished 4th rewatch of season 3 pt1, and there is no way that Tilly Arnold isn't connected to Sophie!!! She is so evil stepmother coded, and that convo she was having with her solicitor?!?! That could totally be about Sophie's father and his will or whatever (haven't read the book and don't plan on it, but I know it's the Cinderella trope).

At the very least, that scene with the solicitor is important in some way. I doubt that they would put it in for no reason (though it is possible)

Lastly, just the icing on my theory cake, I think she's trying to fall pregnant with Benedict's child and trap him into marrying her
