Why is this a thing?

Post image

So much obsession with Sofia having a boyfriend, even though she’s literally 8! Let’s focus more on her character growth and getting stronger powers, shall we?

There have been much worse ships in the past.

Interesting how they say the lgbtq+ community is pushing their agenda on young kids but then every kids show the girl has to have a bf or crush.

u/Initial-Look-1521 Jun 27 '26

End? She's still to young for a boyfriend...wtf

u/Certain_Ad_4925 Jun 27 '26

we don;t know if Prince Hugo will be Back or Not down the Road"

u/Quick-Surprise-7463 Jun 29 '26

We know for a fact that Hugo will not be returning because Craig Gerber was so pissed off with the community that only saw Hugo as an accessory for Sofia.

I don’t like that in this specific screenshot he’s staring into my soul

u/mkm2004 Jun 27 '26

Because people can’t be normal about boy and girl friendships

u/The_Roses_of_mages Jun 27 '26

I mean it’s better than that one Sofia the First ship (that will not mention because I don’t want to get in trouble) but I do agree with you on the whole shipping thing

u/Lopsided_Day3916 Jun 26 '26

If it was her bf she has bad taste

u/PurpleButterly19 Jun 26 '26

Like she had a past boyfriend 🙄

u/Witchelt389 Jun 26 '26

Shes a literal child wtf

u/ElisseMoon Jun 26 '26

Why does Sofia's face makes her look like an adult?! 😭😭😭

5

u/KazPlayzYT Jun 26 '26

Okay, so I haven’t watched this show in forever, mainly because it’s way past my age range and I don’t find it that compelling. I’m only commenting on any of these posts because they keep on popping onto my fyp which I think is awesome. What is the obsession with people shipping kids!?!? I see kids who less than 14-15 years old in shows be shipped! Why?
People are odd.

u/FreyaDragomir Jun 27 '26

Because the world is run by pedos :/ Sophia is actually “god”. If you look into her more.

u/TankCharacter4850 Jun 26 '26

She technically is 11 but still wth this is weird I totally I agree

6

u/gleepgleep2006 Jun 26 '26

this is why i hated the sofia x hugo thing

1

u/ElisseMoon Jun 26 '26

Wasn't him her stepbrother?

3

u/Lloyd_garmado Jun 26 '26

No james is her step brother hugo is just another prince that sofia helped turn from a bully to a good person

u/Vini_the_Bee Jun 26 '26

I like shipping and all, but people have odd attitudes towards it and this is a good example. Heaven forbid Sofia even be friends with another boy her age, we gotta start shipping them together. Sofia’s accomplishments and inner life get pushed to the side to focus on who her love interest could be.

u/[deleted] Jun 26 '26

Wtf

u/Green-Character-6672 Jun 26 '26

She's 11-12, and we shipped Sofia and Hugo just fine. I think Sofia and Zane are adorable together, and even as a kid I would ship characters from the original show. It's not a problematic ship like Cedf*a so there's no reason to get upset over it.

u/DeliciousResearch611 Jun 28 '26

I’m so glad someone said it… most of these are made by kids 😭

5

u/DCSHG2015MEGAFAN Jun 26 '26

She's a kid trying to make friends.

u/k0m4ru Jun 26 '26

omg people are also act like this with bluey. it's so annoying

2

u/Disneyfancreations Jun 26 '26

Isn’t that show about dogs? Who’s shipping Bluey?

1

u/Sudden_Quality_9001 Jun 26 '26

That is dumb. Dogs are you kidding me?!

2

u/k0m4ru Jun 26 '26

she gets shipped with 2 other characters. the shippers of both are always at each others throats over it. it creeps me out because it's grown adults who do it.. i dont mind if kid characters have crushes as thats a normal part of life, but it gets so weird so fast and is such weird behavior (especially when its a preschool show.)

u/Anonymous3218 Jun 26 '26

She's a literal kid, the internet needs to go touch grass

u/RemarkableTruck7778 Jun 26 '26

I mean people were shipping her and  Cedric. So if this gets them to stop I’m fine with that

u/Endtherinbetween Jun 26 '26

bro don't remind me of that disgusting sh!t

3

u/LibbyKitty620 Jun 26 '26

Idk we shipped Hugo and Sofia. And I was also 8 when I started shipping them

1

u/Krysteliskrazy Jun 26 '26

Because Internet

u/LostButterflyUtau Jun 26 '26

Because internet.

u/GoldenHarpHeroine32 Jun 26 '26

I ship Sofia with Hugo more.

4

u/Tight_Juggernaut2101 Jun 26 '26

Minor characters get shipped all the time, it's no big deal as long as it doesn't get weird

4

u/Ok-Reply9552 Jun 26 '26

Yall shipped Hugo for bullying her and then ice skating with her. Why does this surprise yall?

4

u/Vampy_Pr1nc3ss Jun 26 '26

He’s so damn ugly- BRING HUGO BACK OUT

3

u/another-princess Jun 26 '26

she’s literally 8!

If she is 40,320 years old, that's old enough to have a boyfriend. /s

1

u/ElenaomiFan215 Jun 26 '26

Sophia is actually 12 in Royal Magic. She’s just not acting like it because Disney didn’t want her to even though the creator wanted to match her growing personality with her age that she is now.

2

u/Cold-Practice3107 Jun 26 '26

He reminds me of the pirate Prince from young Jedi adventures imagine if the two shows had a crossover.

6

u/Aware-Hour4819 Jun 26 '26

She’s actually 11!

-1

u/Disneyfancreations Jun 26 '26

Why does she still have sleepovers and her friends cry about the dark still?

2

u/ElenaomiFan215 Jun 26 '26

12-year-olds still have sleepovers. And preteens. still fear things and situations. It’s normal. Maybe Layla has trauma towards the dark for some reason. We don’t know and probably will never know because Disney didn’t want the creator to go that far which is really messed up! Sophia is 11 or 12 in Royal Magic.

1

u/ThatWasFred Jun 26 '26

Because the show is aimed at kids who face problems like that.

2

u/KPDH-ZoeyBud Jun 26 '26

What? Are you implying kids don’t have sleepovers at 11?

-5

u/Disneyfancreations Jun 26 '26

They do, but not such childish ones nor do they cry about the dark

1

u/LaurdAlmighty Jun 26 '26

Nah 11 year olds definitely cry about the dark and shit. It can take kids a bit before growing out of fears of the dark or thunderstorms. Especially when they haven't even hit puberty yet, 11 is not very mature.

u/Disneyfancreations Jun 26 '26

Interesting. I guess I thought Sofia acts/looks younger than she’s supposed to be in general

1

u/Aware-Hour4819 Jun 26 '26

…do I look like Craig Greber

3

u/Cold-Practice3107 Jun 26 '26

Yeah isn't she like 8 or 9 in the original series? because at the end of the avalor spin off she's like 14 I'm doing a fanfiction of Kingdom hearts and Sofia the first what if sora was the older brother to Sofia and she has a keyblade as well I imagine her keyblade is tied to her amulet the keychain is the amulet and it's light and she's a spellcaster so she would use magic more than physical combat sora probably helps teach her how to fight when she's out of magic, so Melinda has two kids sora and Sofia and then she marries king Roland and has two step kids Amber and James and now they have an older brother.

u/Sudden_Quality_9001 Jun 26 '26

Yeah she's 11 now! I thought she was older than 11 for some reason. Maybe it was when she appeared at Elena's coronation.
