Even though she has been divorced from Prince Andrew for several years, Sarah Ferguson has always kept a very special bond with the father of her two daughters. In the best of times and in the worst of times. Especially when the Duke of York was accused of sexual assault. Biographer Ingrid Seward, interviewed in the Royal Exclusive program for the Sun returned to this ultra-privileged relationship between the two former spouses.
“Sarah is extremely loyal to Andrew. I think she discovered, especially in the early years of her marriage, this arrogance he has – an entitlement of ‘you don’t know who I am’. She loved him but I think she found this aspect of him difficult. But she remained very faithful”, she indicates. *

But there would also be another reason for this limitless loyalty. Indeed, according to the editor-in-chief of Majesty Magazine, Sarah Ferguson reportedly had a serious discussion about her relationship with her favorite son, Prince Andrew. “Sarah had to speak to the Queen and she had to say ‘please look after Andrew for me’. And that’s what she’s going to do. I don’t think she’ll leave him and I don’t think they will remarry”.
And even despite the sexual scandals which caused Prince Andrew to be removed from the royal family, Sarah Ferguson will stay by his side. “She’s not going to abandon Andrew because he’s supported her through all the different scandals she’s been involved in.”
A very special bond with Prince Andrew
Indeed, in 1992, photos of her affair with Steve Wyatt were revealed in the press. Then, photos of another man, John Bryant licking her toes make the headlines of the tabloids. And each time, Prince Andrew has been of unwavering support for Sarah Ferguson.
“It wouldn’t look very good if she left him. She just wouldn’t do it. I don’t think she’s too loyal, it’s just a really nice trait. She’s very protective towards him now because he needs protection”. Moreover, after his divorce, she retained her title of Duchess of York.
