Queen Elizabeth<\/strong><\/a> apparently wasn’t a fan of former Prince Andrew<\/strong><\/a>‘s ex-wife, Sarah Ferguson<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n The late monarchy allegedly referred to her second son’s former spouse as “The Duchess of Deceit” following Ferguson’s infamous 2010 “cash for access” scandal, a top palace source spilled to Andrew Lownie<\/strong>‘s “The Lownie Report” in a bombshell Substack<\/a> post uploaded on Thursday, November 20.<\/p>\n 15 years ago, Ferguson was caught<\/a> by undercover News of the World<\/em> reporter Mazher Mahmood<\/strong> \u2014 who posed as a businessman \u2014 offering information about her ex-husband in exchange for a briefcase containing a downpayment of more than $52,000 worth of cash.<\/p>\n The former Duchess of York could be heard telling Mahmood on tape: “I can open any door you want, and I will for you. Look after me and he\u2019ll look after you… you’ll get it back tenfold.”<\/p>\n Ferguson was also secretly filmed by News of the World <\/em>offering access to her ex-husband, now ordered to go by the name Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, for over $654,000.<\/p>\n Her Majesty was outraged after the scandal was exposed<\/a>, with the palace source telling Lownie no one had ever seen Queen Elizabeth so angry.<\/p>\n “Sarah’s misconduct left everlasting interpersonal consequences between herself and Her Majesty,” the insider spilled. “The Queen described Sarah<\/a> as the type of person who was beyond experiencing guilt, shame, or regret for her terrible actions because all she cared about was herself and nobody else. The Queen said Sarah<\/a> was ‘remorseless’.”<\/p>\n According to the confidant, Ferguson’s bribes weren’t a one time incident.<\/p>\n “She sold access to the Royal Family and secrets of the Royal Family\u2026to make a quick buck. It was an utter betrayal of the trust placed in her. It was all calculated to prioritize her own personal interests,” the source claimed.<\/p>\n A separate insider and old friend of Ferguson<\/a> expressed concern to Lownie over Andrew’s ex-wife’s well-being<\/a>.<\/p>\n “It’s become abundantly clear that Sarah has withdrawn<\/a>,” the pal declared. “No matter what she gets herself into, I\u2019ll always love her.”<\/p>\n “We\u2019ve shared many laughs over the years. She needs to reframe all these negative situations and somehow take small steps to reconnect with herself,” the source suggested. “I hope she gets professional help to deal with all the turmoil surrounding her. I hope and pray she does this before it\u2019s too late.”<\/p>\n Read more at OK!<\/a><\/p>\n Get OK!’s biggest scoops and scandals delivered right to your inbox. Sign up now<\/a>.<\/p>\n FOLLOW OK!
