Amid claims that Sarah Ferguson<\/a> is \u201cspending money like there\u2019s no tomorrow,\u201d there are rumors circulating that she\u2019s begging the royal family to financially support her.<\/p>\n In a May 2026 interview with The Mirror<\/a><\/em>, royal author Andrew Lownie alleged that Fergie may be in negotiations over whether she still has a place in the royal circle or ends up left out entirely.<\/p>\n \u201cThe daughters are clearly footballs in this thing,\u201d Lownie said of Princess Eugenie and Beatrice. \u201cThe fact that [Fergie and former Prince Andrew] are still swanning around the Middle East, using their titles\u2026it doesn\u2019t send out the right signals if you want to work your passage back. It\u2019s confusing.\u201d<\/p>\n <\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n He alleged, \u201cThat may be what Fergie\u2019s negotiating at the moment. Can she get a nice pension from them and not have to do an Oprah interview.\u201d<\/p>\n Related: Fergie Reportedly \u2018Not Backing\u2019 Down from Demand to Meet with Charles After Feeling \u2018Spat Out Like Chopped Liver\u2019<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n This comes after Fergie blamed the royal family for leaking her whereabouts<\/a> in April 2026. The former Duchess of York has been hiding out at a luxury ski chalet in Austria, which reportedly costs around $2,700 per night.<\/p>\n Sources claim Fergie\u2019s been coping by drowning her sorrows in retail therapy, which could push her even further into debt.<\/p>\n \u201cThe last thing she should be doing right now is pouring money down the drain, but she still feels entitled to the high life. Her excuse is that she\u2019s in a crisis and she needs this pampering. That\u2019s for her mental health,\u201d an insider told RadarOnline<\/a> <\/em>in May 2026. \u201cThat means bottle after bottle of expensive champagne for her and whoever she can rope in to join her. And when she\u2019s not knocking back drinks, she\u2019s at the spa getting massages, body wraps and facials. She\u2019s spending money like there\u2019s no tomorrow.\u201d<\/p>\n Due to her high level of spending, Fergie\u2019s credit cards have really taken a hit. Heat World<\/a> previously reported that Eugenie and Beatrice are allegedly concerned they may have to help pay off their mother\u2019s debts<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cAndrew isn\u2019t going to hand over a dime to cover her bills so it\u2019s all going on her credit cards which are already maxed out,\u201d the source explained. \u201cIt\u2019s so frustrating for her girls because they could be the ones that have to bail her out.\u201d<\/p>\n Eugenie and Beatrice have been \u201cbegging\u201d Fergie to \u201cface the facts and adjust her life accordingly,\u201d but she won\u2019t listen to them. \u201cShe\u2019s in total denial mode,\u201d the insider claimed. \u201cMore than anything else, Sarah sees no reason why she should have to rein it in.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n![\"Beatrice,](\"https:\/\/stylecaster.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/beatrice-eugenie-fergie-diddy.jpg?w=300&h=168&crop=1\")
