Right here with that fact is indication of Sarah's 'spontaneous nature". She's also complained that when they did have time together, Andrew would rather be a "couch potato" and watch videos, tv and perhaps a few games.. I really can't remember. This indicates to me that Sarah lives in the "now". No past thoughts, no goals for the future but now is what matters.
I think you`ve summed up one of Sarah`s defining personality traits. She lives completely in the moment, or in the world of her head, but not reality. She doesn`t plan; this is how she never saved any money and as soon as her business ventures fell apart, ended up massively in debt.
People don`t understand how Sarah could have had affairs if she loved Andrew as much as she claimed, but it makes sense to me because you have to understand how Sarah`s mind works. Before they were married, Andrew was always there (apparently they only spent one night apart during their engagement). Whenever she wanted him, he was there
now. As soon as they got married, he went to sea, and he wasn`t there. And then when he was home, he was busy with other things. So instead of thinking about the future when Andrew might be based in London and spend more time with her, Sarah gave up on Andrew and went looking for someone who would be there for her
now. Then it was money: she always wanted some big business deal or financial saviour to solve all her problems instantly,
now--the magical quick fix. And apparently, in that area, she didn`t learn.
In regards to a future career, it`s definitely going to be interesting to see what unfolds. There isn`t going to be any quick and easy source of money, but it`s going to be a while before Sarah understands that. Right now I think she is probably totally lost and just waiting for someone to come in and solve all her problems. But that isn`t going to happen.
After this fiasco, where she goes I think will be up to her. I really don't see her just retiring to the country, tending gardens and holding a few tea parties to support her causes in the area. I don't see the style Duchess of York meaning anything to anyone much in the US as far as the celebrity status goes either. The big draw for the demographics of celebrities (there are a few stars though) are between the ages of 16 and 40) Although Oprah has made presumably an offer for Sarah to do a documentary type thing for her OWN network, I don't see that as a permanant thing either. Its a start though. Something Sarah is good at.
Oh no, I can`t see Sarah living the quiet life of English country gentry either. And that`s okay; that kind of lifestyle isn`t meant for everyone either. Sarah is good at doing something like what Oprah offered her; it`s just that she needs to make money by using her skills, now, and not her courtesy title or her past fame. That did work in 1997, but that was 13 years ago. In the world of celebrity headlines, Sarah`s marriage to Andrew really is ancient history.
