I was shocked when I saw that the #PlayFab #UnrealEngine plugin uses a TSharedPtr<UPlayFabAuthenticationContext>, where the UPlayFabAuthenticationContext is a UObject.

- Then use the aliasing constructor
TSharedPtr(TSharedPtr<OtherType>, ObjectType*) to create a new shared pointer using the Shared Reference as first, and the UObject as second parameter.
