Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York - News and Pics

[liv]

She doesn´t belong to the royal family anymore. She is the divorced wife of Andrew. Furthermore the public knows that she was incredibly close to Diana and so you would have thought of her seeing her walking to he wedding.

I know it's a bit sad because she is the mother of two of the Queen's grandchildren, but she isn't officially a member of the family now, so she never gets an invite to events like this. I don't think she got an invite to Edward and Sophie's wedding either.

She was present at the Queen Mother's funeral though!

Things like that happen in families that go through tough divorces. Plus, it was Charles and Camilla's wedding, they can invite who they want. They aren't close to Sarah, I can see why they didn't invite her.

I have agree with that posts!

but Sarah,Duchess of York is no longer into Royals because she is DIVORCES! and she been friendly with her EX-husband Prince Andrew and the girls after divorces she took girls to New York for her daughter's birthday that very nice if Queen would found out?

didn't fergie have plastic surgery recently or something? it wasn't that great of a job because there are still heaps of wrinkles about her eyes...or is that just a result of squinting? :P

Hmmm...

I don't think she should be snubbed from every event. Funerals don't count.

She deserves much respect as the mother of Princess Beatrice and Eugeine.

I'm sure it also hurts the two princesses when Sarah can not attend events that they may want her support for.

I'm sure Charles would have rather invited Sarah than Earl Spencer to his wedding.
Who knows...

Thank you for posting the pics! Can anyone tell me about Sarahs popularity?
Is she a well liked person in Britain? thanks.

I totally agree. Some events her daughters probably want her at and she should be invited to them. She may be divorced but I don't think that should be the basis for her not going. THey let Camilla into the family for crying out loud.:( The least they could do is invite the mother of girls who are 9th and 10 th in line to the throne.

I am not saying Sarah should be invited to every royal event but ones where it is important to show family unity and where Beatrice and Eugenie need her support. Andrew and Sarah have a good relationship so its not like it is awkward between them.

According to the above article, Fergie won't move out of ex-hubbie Prince Andrew's house so he can sell it.

[Elspeth]

Oh, dear - I suppose the Queen will have to have another little chat with her, then.

I thought she had a house ready to move to.

[Ennyllorac]

I thought she had moved out a long time ago and was renting a house. Geez. I have all my information messed up.

[Elspeth]

I think she did, and then she was getting into debt or something, or her lease ran out or whatever, and she moved back into Sunninghill where she was somehow living separately from Andrew under the same roof (which I suppose is possible in a place that size). But I thought she'd found a place recently to move to when Andrew moved to Royal Lodge (assuming that she wasn't going to move to Royal Lodge so she could live separately under the same roof there too!).

[lashinka2002]

I think they should give Sarah a break. She's really come a long way.
As far as I know she has virtually flipped the bill for all of the childeren's expenses.

well! I hope she is invited to her own daughters weddings!

Good point, Reina. You know...it's sad, but considering how the Monarchy practically owns the children/heirs...you really have to stop and think. At first when I read your post, I laughed at the light hearted sarcasm. Then I thought.."Wait a minute." There might be some truth to Reina's statement. With the control factor the Monarchy exerts...one does have to wonder (or hope) that Fergie would be included in her own daughters weddings...
