Despite divorcing decades ago, Sarah Ferguson remains steadfast in her commitment to a promise made to the late Queen concerning Prince Andrew, with whom she still shares a home at Royal Lodge, Andrew's 30-room residence in Windsor.
Ferguson's unwavering loyalty to Andrew, even after their divorce, has earned them the title of the "happiest divorced couple in the world." Their close bond, unusual for divorced couples, has raised speculation about the influence of the late Queen Elizabeth on Ferguson's dedication to Andrew, particularly since his withdrawal from royal duties in 2019.
According to royal expert Ingrid Seward, editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine, Ferguson's enduring loyalty to Andrew may stem from conversations she had with the late Queen, who perhaps entrusted her with the task of looking after Andrew. Seward suggests that despite facing numerous challenges throughout their relationship, including Andrew's perceived arrogance early on, Ferguson remains committed to supporting him, echoing his support for her during her own scandals.
The breakdown of Ferguson's marriage in 1992, following highly publicized scandals, initially strained her relationship with the royal family. However, her bond with Andrew remained intact, with Andrew being regarded as the late Queen's favorite son.
Ferguson has spoken warmly of her former mother-in-law, praising Queen Elizabeth as a mentor and likening her to a mother figure. Even after the Queen's passing, elements of her presence remain at Royal Lodge, where Andrew and Ferguson share their home with the late Queen's beloved corgis, Sandy and Muick.
Despite the ups and downs, Ferguson's loyalty to Andrew and her reverence for the late Queen Elizabeth continue to shape her relationship with the royal family and her commitment to supporting Andrew through life's challenges.
