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

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

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.

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 !

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

Bless her, she just needs some well fitting undergarments.

Anniebach Tue 02-Apr-24 15:25:40

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’

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.

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

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

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

Here she is - classy eh? grin

That's Fergie to a T. smile

I read somewhere (I'm sure I did!) that King Charles has given his blessing for a remarriage between Andrew and Sarah if they choose to?

She's a bit too full of herself for my liking. She caused the RF a huge amount of embarrassment in the past. I don't mind her being seen at family events but wish she would keep a low profile.

I think you'll find the RF have caused themselves a great deal of embarrassment over the years and really don't need any help in that department. Anyway, why is her behaviour any worse than Charles' or Andrew's? Different standards for women maybe?

Anniebach Tue 02-Apr-24 20:41:03

Andrew does not give interviews , appear on chat shows or Oprah , he is constantly criticised.

Why Charles ?

zakouma66 Tue 02-Apr-24 20:49:33

I think Andrew did a famous interview?

So famous, a Netflix drama has been made about it.

Anniebach Tue 02-Apr-24 20:52:55

Yes he did , not for money,the country asking

Anniebach Tue 02-Apr-24 21:01:21

Netflix did the Crown, the late Queen ?

LOUISA1523 Tue 02-Apr-24 21:04:30

Shes been a good mum....Her girls adore her...you can see from photos and video footage ....she doest offend me in the slightest

Anniebach Tue 02-Apr-24 21:09:22

She hasn’t been criticised as a mother on this thread

Sarah always seemed to me to be out of her depth as a Royal. I remember that she was even criticised by the old school royals for the way she walked down the aisle. Still, honourable Andrew loves her and they are both being rehabilitated into the public eye by a forgiving monarch. It's the king's family and his decision to make.

Not really.
Andrew can be forgiven and taken back into the bosom of the family if the family wish and seen attending family events but not on public duty.

I think it was just Prince Philip who decided Sarah's behaviour was unforgivable 🤔 (ironic).

Anniebach Wed 03-Apr-24 10:42:53

It was unfortunate the photograph of Sarah, topless, having her
toes sucked whilst her children watched hit the front pages.

Where have you seen photographs Prince Phillip in a compromising situation Callistemon ?

BigBertha1 Wed 03-Apr-24 10:49:54

I quite like Fergie. She has stood by Andrew in spite of everything and she keeps battling on. She only went to church for goodness sake I think that's allowed without criticism or comment.

There were probably no long-lens cameras back in those days 😁
