Sarah Ferguson expected back in the UK 'shortly', source says
The former Duchess of York is renting a six-bed house in the Home Counties, reports say.
Former Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson is expected to return to the UK shortly, according to a close source. She had been living abroad after being forced to vacate Royal Lodge in Windsor in October. Ferguson was last seen in public at the Duchess of Kent's funeral the month prior. Reports suggest she is currently renting a gated property in the Home Counties, possibly as early as next week.
Mountbatten-Windsor and Ferguson both forfeited their royal titles following scrutiny over their association with Jeffrey Epstein, a disgraced financier and sex offender. Ferguson is rumored to have been staying at an Alpine chalet in Verbier, Switzerland, while her belongings were collected from Mountbatten-Windsor's Sandringham home.
She had reportedly been keeping a low profile post-losing her titles, despite facing calls to speak to US authorities. Emails revealed she had privately apologized to Epstein and even took her daughters to see him in the US after his release from prison. Mountbatten-Windsor was stripped of his titles due to his "serious lapses of judgment" in connection with Epstein.
