Sophie's sister-in-law, the Duchess of Cornwall, also shared a moving video message to mark International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
Camilla, who is patron of domestic abuse charity, SafeLives, said: "Today gives us all the opportunity to remember those who have suffered and those who, tragically, have died as a result of these heinous crimes.
"I very much hope that it will encourage all of us to help people we know who might be living in the dark world of abuse and coercion. This will be particularly important in the build-up to Christmas – a time when, very sadly, domestic abuse increases.
"But today is also a day that can give us hope. Together, we can and we must eliminate violence against women."
