I do like her. Plucky is the word that comes to mind.

I think she’s a great survivor and in case those of you who are bad-mouthing her don’t know she has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of skin cancer months after she was diagnosed with breast cancer. A spokesperson for Sarah Ferguson, 64, said medics had removed a mole on her body, which tested as a malignant melanoma, during treatment for her cancer

Shame she doesn't own a full length mirror, she always looks lumpy and grumpy, the opposite to Camilla

ordinarygirl Tue 02-Apr-24 16:06:10

I understood she and the late queen would meet whilst walking the dogs and Sarah Ferguson took in the queen's dog after she died.

What’s wrong with how she looks Chestnut she probably has a little bit more weight and a looser coat would look better but she’s not looking dreadful….poor woman can’t do right for doing wrong, however I doubt it would worry her too much

She may well be taking one of the drugs recommended post-breast cancer surgery. It's a five year course and it can cause weight gain.

I think it’s a bit harsh to be so picky she was obviously comfortable with her clothes and she has had a breast removed in an 8 hour operation last year so maybe more worried about being up and running than looking like she’s in vogue
( she calls her reconstructed breast Derek)

Well said.

I don't know what she's wearing but well done her for being up and at it again after last year problems.

She has still retained her sense of humour.

She certainly likes chat shows. ‘Her affair, I was a people pleaser,I thought he could help my business, he said he would
build schools in Afghanistan ‘. Andrew, he is a man of honour’

Kathmaggie Tue 02-Apr-24 14:49:20

Bless her, she just needs some well fitting undergarments.

Anniebach Tue 02-Apr-24 13:18:43

Sarah likes the camera and chat shows, especially American,
she called the Queen Mumma, walked in the gardens with her, the Queen was best friends with her mother !

She seems ok, I never minded her apart from the fact that she is loyal to that creep of an ex husband. She lives her life happily enough and doesn’t rock the boat or badmouth her family.

I think it’s the other way round. Her dodgy husband has been supporting her.

Claennis Tue 02-Apr-24 13:00:11

Fergie's OK. Yes, she does like the camera; yes, she likes to give her opinion. But she's an extrovert and very sociable. She likes people and she likes to be out and about, so why shouldn't she be true to who she is as a person. Also, perhaps you've noticed, as I have, that it's never a nasty opinion or negative about another person. And through all her silliness when young, she never did say anything negative about her naysayers. She could have grumbled about Phillip being a stiff old stick and cutting her off. She could have distanced herself from her ex-husband. But she didn't. And her girls are a credit to her. They're loyal, which seems to have been a core value she passed on to them. They respect their parents, and they don't snipe about other people. Unlike SOME (you know who!) in the RF!!!

Anniebach Tue 02-Apr-24 12:06:08

annifrance you should forgive Andrew if you are a Christian?

zakouma66 Tue 02-Apr-24 12:02:48

annifrance, You are quite right. Its unpleasant to say nasty things about her style. I don't know her and I'll never know her.

Its just she is so very much on display and maybe some better fitting garments would help.

Damdee Tue 02-Apr-24 11:58:57

I don't mind Fergie and I heard she took the late Queen's corgis which was nice of her.

Anniebach Tue 02-Apr-24 11:56:59

It’s not for me to forgive her, she never caused me hurt

annifrance Tue 02-Apr-24 11:46:37

Why pick on the faux pas she made decades ago during a period of mispent youth. Haven't we all been there one way or another?

sSe has been an excellent mother to her girls, has supported her somewhat dodgy ex-husband, extraordinary. I couldn't have done that.

She looks pretty good for her age whatever she wears, which is her business. She has done a lot for charity I understand suffered cancer and a traumatic operation.

Give her a break. And those on this site that perport to be Christian how about a little Christian forgiveness.

JaneJudge Tue 02-Apr-24 11:43:45

maybe Sarah chooses her own clothes?

Anniebach Tue 02-Apr-24 11:40:36

Some are open for criticism some not

Sarah was with Andrew at the Memorial service for King Constantine.
Sarah, Duchess of York and Prince Andrew joined the British royal family at a thanksgiving service in Windsor for the late King Constantine II on Tuesday. feb 2024

And why should't she? Presumably, the outgoing, funny girl she was and the woman she matured into, got on well with the Greek royal family that like Fergie have a sense of humour.

Mollygo Tue 02-Apr-24 11:28:43

I like Fergie and she’ll serve a useful purpose giving people someone else to pick on.

zakouma66 Mon 01-Apr-24 17:54:44

Sarah has always done her own thing re fashion. To me, there is something likeable and vulnerable about her. But please, she has professional people about her to suggest comfortable and stylish clothing.

Funny old world, Royal women.

Sallywally1 Mon 01-Apr-24 17:45:31

I have no opinion on her really, but it irritates me that she is called fergie, when she has such a lovely first name. I mean, who cares.

Calendargirl Mon 01-Apr-24 17:42:54

Well, whatever she was wearing, it’s good to see Sarah looking well after her cancer scares.

Puts it all into perspective, doesn’t it really?
