Fanon
Before Three Hopes demo release Monigard was a nearly inexistant ship. Since the real Monica is never see alive and that almost nothing was know about her personnality or relationship with other characters in Three Houses she was rarely given an important role in fanworks. However after realese of Three Hopes demo where the real Monica is introduced and became playable she gained popularity in the fandom, and was instantanly shipped with Edelgard to whom she has explictly a crush. Monigard is one the most popular ship for Monica the only rivals ship on her side are Shez x Monica, Hubert x Monica and Dorothea x Monica who are far less popular than Monigard. On Edelgard's side tought it's one of her least popular ship mainly because most fire emblem players prefere to ship her with other characters that were present in Three Houses (especially those with who she has a paired ending).
