A royal author has claimed that Sarah Ferguson made “greedy” decisions that contributed to her “financial downfall”. Author, Andrew Lownie, published his biography, Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, earlier this year, which made startling claims about Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and Sarah Ferguson.
Lownie, who spent four years researching Sarah and Andrew for his book,claims the ex-duchess spent wildly during her marriage. A former staff member told Lownie that “greed and wastefulness that contributed to the duchess’s financial downfall”, claiming: “Every night she demands a whole side of beef, a leg of lamb and a chicken, which are laid out on the dining room table like a medieval banquet.”
They added: “It’s a feast that would make Henry VIII proud.”
The source also added: “But often there is just her and her girls, Bea and Eugenie, and most of it is wasted. There is no attempt to keep it to have cold the next day. It just sits there all night, and the next day it’s thrown away.”
The author claimed Fergie would waste money in other ways too and she “would regularly miss flights that were not refundable”, totting up thousands of pounds in unnecessary costs.
One source also revealed that Fergie “thought nothing of arriving at an airport with 25 cases and paying between £800 and £4,000 in excess baggage. At least five of those cases were packed with toiletries and make-up. Another would be used solely for clothes hangers.”
Sarah even borrowed money from late paedophile, Jeffrey Epstein, with fresh claims about her relationship with the disgraced financer attracting huge scrutiny in recent weeks.
She borrowed at least £15,000 from Esptein, with newly surfaced emails allegedly showing that she also asked for further sums: $50,000 (£37,240) to $100,000 (£78,475) from him to help with “small bills” and that she asked to visit his private island in the Caribbean, according to the Mirror.
When the email emerged that she wrote to Epstein in 2011, shortly after publicly disowning him in a newspaper interview, many of the charities she had long worked with dropped her.
Her spokesperson has claimed that Sarah wrote the email in question under extreme duress, with the convicted sex offender allegedly threatening to “destroy” her and her family after.
She lost her status as duchess earlier in October when Andrew agreed to give up his Duke of York title as details about his ties with the late Jeffrey Epstein re-emerged after the publication of the late Virginia Giuffre’s memoir, ‘Nobody’s Girl’.
