Sarah Ferguson’s ‘money confession’ amid Epstein scandal

Fergie is planning an astonishing comeback to public life, according to the Daily Mail.

The publication claims that the former duchess has been keeping her head down in the French Alps with friends before jetting off to the United Arab Emirates recently.

According to the publication, Ferguson has been lying low as she “gets her head together” amid the Epstein scandal involving her and her ex-husband, Andrew.

On January 30, more than three million files relating to Epstein and his crimes were released.

Within these files, images appeared to show Andrew kneeling on all fours over an unidentified female, who is fully clothed, lying on the ground.

No context has been provided for the photos. It is also unclear when they were taken.

The former duke has always vehemently denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein.

Meanwhile, Ferguson’s alleged friendship with disgraced financier Epstein has also been made public, thanks to emails that have been released as part of the Epstein files.

When Ferguson returns to the UK, it seems as though she isn’t going into exile like her ex-husband.

Instead, according to the Mail, the former duchess is already looking for a new PR team to represent her ahead of her UK return.

‘I need money’

According to the Mail, Ferguson has been telling friends: “I need to get back to work. I need money.”

Though Ferguson and Andrew have spent the past 30 years being branded the “happiest divorced couple in the world,” it appears as though Fergie’s plans for a public life return won’t involve Andrew in any way, despite their previous close relationship.

“When I come back, I am going to have to put some distance between myself and Andrew,” she allegedly said.

It’s understood that Ferguson isn’t going to be joining Andrew at the Sandringham Estate, where he is now living. Instead, she is expected to stay in “the Windsor area”.

However, her pals reportedly believe she is “kidding herself” if she believes she can pick up where she left off.

Royal Insider has contacted Sarah’s representatives for comment.

It has not been confirmed whether the recently released emails pertained to or were from Ferguson and the true context has not been revealed.

Royal Insider contacted representatives for both Andrew and Ferguson for comment on the files. Being named or pictured among the Epstein files is not an indication of wrongdoing.
