Sarah Ferguson Faces Major Setback Amid Support for Prince Andrew
Sarah Ferguson, the ex-wife of Prince Andrew, has encountered a significant setback after publicly supporting her former husband during his ongoing controversies.
For those unaware, the Duke of York was notably excluded from the royal family's Christmas celebrations at Sandringham following his involvement in a spy scandal. In a further development, it was reported that the Duchess of York also decided to step back from reuniting with the royals, choosing instead to stay by Andrew’s side.
Royal expert Jennie Bond shared her thoughts with *OK! Magazine*, commenting that King Charles might feel "sad" about Sarah Ferguson’s absence from the Sandringham walkabout. Bond explained, "This will be a blow for Fergie. She was so effusive last Christmas and was clearly delighted to be included in the family festivities after so many years in exile."
Bond added, "But her loyalty has always been to Andrew, and she will stick by his side, wherever they spend the day."
Discussing King Charles' possible reaction, Jennie Bond stated, "I think the King has a soft spot for Fergie, especially after their shared experience with cancer." Bond noted that Ferguson’s presence always adds a touch of fun to royal events, so Charles would likely feel a bit saddened by her decision to remain with Andrew rather than participate in the traditional Sandringham gathering.
In the wake of her decision to skip the royal Christmas festivities, Sarah Ferguson made her first public statement on the matter. Taking to her official Instagram, she shared, "It was a pleasure to record an audiobook of my new children’s title, ‘Flora and Fern: Wonder in the Woods,’ for @LBC."
