Sarah Ferguson’s plan to distance herself from ‘toxic’ and ‘unsophisticated’ Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor

Published by Daniella Wilson

Sarah Ferguson has taken herself fully out of the limelight amid her ex-husband, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s very public fall from grace. After 18 years of living together, the former couple have gone their separate ways with Andrew holed up at Marsh Farm in Sandringham and Sarah left without a permanent home. It is clear that the mother-of-two is now trying to distance herself from Andrew despite previously stating they were the “happiest divorced couple in the world”. Andrew Lownie, author of the book, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, which documents Andrew and Sarah’s downfall, has lifted the lid on what he thinks is going through Sarah’s mind right now. “They were kind of joined together – them against the world – and that’s now clearly fractured. I think she feels that he’s toxic and that he’s going to destroy her branding opportunities, so it’s time to go off on her own,” he wrote.  Sarah and Andrew lived together despite their divorce Ingrid Seward, the editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine, points out that she …

Inside Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson’s ‘fractured’ relationship 30 years after their divorce

Published by Daniella Wilson

The former Duke and Duchess of York lived under the same roof, went on holiday together and had nothing but good things to say about each other. “He’s still my handsome prince; he’ll always be my handsome prince. It’s lovely that we are such a family and that the story has a happy ending all the time,” Sarah once said. Now, as they mark 30 years since their divorce, which was finalised on 30 May 1996, their relationship is in a very different place. Living apart for the first time in 18 years, they haven’t seen each other for months. Since they were forced to move out of Royal Lodge, the 30-room mansion on the Windsor Estate that they shared until earlier this year, Andrew has been exiled to the modest Marsh Farm on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk.  © Popperfoto via Getty ImagesSarah said she and Andrew were ‘the happiest divorced couple in the world’ Last week, it emerged that Andrew, who was arrested on his 66th birthday in February on suspicion of misconduct …

In a few days, royal writer Andrew Lownie’s book Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York will hit the shelves in paperback, with new information on the latest Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor scandal. The book also focuses on his ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson and details about her relationships with staff have been divulged. There’s the request for a fresh cream cake to be made each and every day, and the book also reveals the “chaotic” demands for her personal assistants. The book reads: “One of Sarah’s long-serving personal assistants found life with the duchess ‘chaotic’. It was not for everyone: ‘Some people only lasted half a day. It was like working with fifty jealous lovers.’” The assistant admitted she was “embarrassed” for Sarah over the former royal’s freebie-grabbing nature. “Sarah rarely paid for anything, expecting to be given products for free or be entertained by friends. She ‘borrowed’ security from some of her rich acquaintances. She was lent couture and didn’t always return it, or she ordered garments and often didn’t end up paying for them,” Lownie …
