In a touching gesture, Sarah Ferguson, Prince Andrew's ex-wife, residing in Royal Lodge amid ongoing family tension, shared a special birthday tribute to King Charles as he turns 75 on Tuesday.
The Duchess of York, affectionately known as Fergie, took to her social media to extend warm birthday wishes to the monarch. Alongside an adorable throwback picture of a young King Charles, looking dashing in casual attire, she captioned, "Wishing the happiest of birthdays to His Majesty, King Charles III. Long live the King."
Ferguson's post garnered massive reactions from her followers, with some praising the author for her heartfelt tribute. However, a few others playfully taunted Andrew's ex for referring to Charles as "King."
One of Ferguson's fans commented, "You should all be embarrassed to call him King."
Another, while expressing birthday wishes to King Charles, urged him to reconcile with his estranged son Harry, stating, "Happy Birthday King Charles. Please make up with Harry. This is a lovely picture."
Amidst various sentiments, another well-wisher wrote, "Happy Birthday King Charles - you’re doing a good job."
Sarah Ferguson has maintained a positive relationship with King Charles despite leaving the royal family fold many decades ago following her divorce from Prince Andrew. It is also suggested that King Charles allowed Prince Andrew to stay in his luxury royal home, a decision attributed to Sarah, who recently underwent surgery after being diagnosed with breast cancer.
