modern edward is a bit more laid back than canon edward. we’re social and cultural beings, which means that we are subject to change if our culture does. this is what happens with modern edward. 
compared to the victorian era, we’re in another times. things that society used to see as immoral or inappropiated are now in the spectrum of normal ( they always were normal though ) but the point is that our society today is a bit more accepting than it used to be. that means that edward’s belifs are going to adapt to the modern era. 
we know edward is very traditional, so to keep that in him and not changing completely his character, instead of bothering all women for showing legs, he is gonna be petty about the tomboy culture. like yeah, he respects it “but it’s not very feminine is it?” yikes, edward. hopefully modern nina is gonna shut your little mouth again.
i like to think he is still very devoted to the queen. i’m not really aware of the actual situation in UK, but investigating a little i noticed that there are modern knights but they can also be whatever they want ( i mean, the princess is an actress! ) that’s why, for some ridiculous change of events, edward ended up being... a singer. let’s say, he owned a favor to his young cousin, and knowing the little shit ciel is his answer was “become an artist”. of course not! that would be outrageous because he doesnt have social skills, someone so bland like him wouldn’t be able to be famous. yet lizzie was so chaaaarmed with the idea of her older brother being a singer in the sensational multi-ethnic boyband Phantom / Funtom Five that he couldn’t say no. the surprise there, was realizing his old comrate herman greenhill was also in the scene and lol what even happened to his hair? being competitive he thought if greenhill could, he could do it too. besides, this way he could still work alongside with the queen, because every time there’s a political stunt, the entertaintment business casually acts as a cover up. why would it be? 
edward is not a bad singer, not at all. but he wishes to become a lawyer. totally the opposite, huh? at least, he can still go to college and fulfill his sister’s dreams of seeing him as an idol. “oh brother, all my friends talk about you, aren’t you a popular one?” not really, lizzie. because edward is someone else on stage, when he is not singing he is just an awkward normal boy who is very good at fencing. he likes to dance, actually he likes electronic music but his mother doesn’t let him go out much, and she actually hates the fact edward is on stage moving his butt to charm people, how disgusting edward. what have you become? 
he is still a noble, but just situate a modern marquess in 2019. 
this is my modern verse, on hand with it i have the actual funtom five edward. but the modern knight verse is let’s say, the backstage edward, the normal boy edward, the edward who wants to be a lawyer yet still a noble. stole your heart verse? edward is the heart breaker we see on stage and he is pretty different than what he actually see in his daily life. 
funtom five is not very famous though, lucky edward.
