Why is Sarah Ferguson at the Easter service?

[Lazycatsitsonthemat]

I am really perplexed about why SF attends all Royal events since the death of the Queen when Andrew
is present. She behaves like his wife but she isn’t his wife. What on earth is going on? I cannot think of another situation like this where an ex wife lives with her ex husband and attends all public events with him as though they are still married. It’s bizarre.

But William doesn't have any role in the church yet. And for all we know, he might decline to ever take that role on. We can't mandate what someone else should believe.

Fingers crossed because they should not be intertwined. But as they are, and he seems to be open to being the Prince of Wales, he should show up for now.

I don’t think anyone expects Kate to be at church.

If William went elsewhere, that’s great.

So you don’t think putting on a brave face for the kids to let them feel slightly normal might have tired her out? As she has stipulated, she has good days and bad days. Recovering from cancer isn’t being sick by the book you know?

William isn't recovering from cancer. Charles is old and has cancer and still manages to work...

The post I replied to was about the late Queen never missing something because one of her children was ill. I pointed out she was criticised for that, which is a fact and I'm old enough to remember the Pathe news films of a little Prince Charles having to formally greet his mother. I didn't say anything about other working families as it wasn't relevant to the post I was quoting.

Apart from that I wish work was flexible enough for parents to be able to be with their sick child if they feel the need, I was fortunate through my working life that I was able to do that and I wish the same opportunity for any family Royal or other.

As she has stipulated, she has good days and bad days.

My mum had cancer and my MIL had her twice so I'm somewhat familiar with it, their journeys were very different...

We don’t know that he didn’t? Just because it hasn’t been leaked doesn’t mean it hasn’t happened, the locals around Amner Hall are very good at protecting the family’s privacy.

Also, Easter is a time for family, if rather spend it with my young family then attend church on my own just to prove a point as I will one day be head of the Church of England. Would you?

But Charles never did as Prince of Wales. Not once did he and Camilla go to Windsor at Easter. They were in Scotland

She took a small settlement on divorce with the proviso that she remained on good terms with the Queen. I can’t bear the sight of her gurning from the cameras at public events. Her and the nonce-Prince need to keep the lowest of profiles. They bring nothing to the RF. I like to think that William refused to attend the service on the basis that these two leeches were there.

As someone below said, everyone has their own cancer stories and everyone has very different experiences. Perhaps he wanted to stay home with his very young family and support his wife on her journey? Oh how ghastly of him 🤣

I think they are a couple. They are divorced but have lived together for years. Even after the divorced for years they went to Sandringham together at Christmas even if she wasn't welcome to dinner.

Remember Sarah taught Meghan to curtsey when they met the Queen at Sarah and Andrews house.
It was supposedly a chance meeting, somehow I doubt it, someone planned that. But nobody has disputed that's where Meghan first met HMQ.

I don't really see her as his "ex" though, they might have divorced decades ago but they appear to be very much together and presenting a joint front. Neither has had a relationship with anyone else, been pictured publicly out for dinner or on holiday with a partner. There was a rumour they'd remarry when Price Philip died but I think they're just happy rubbing along as they are.

I like Sarah. The media were awful to her.

It wasn't ghastly of him to leave her to watch footie why would it be ghastly to go to church?

Their youngest dc is 7, same age as my youngest. Is that really a very young family by the way? assumed that would be babies & toddlers?

A burden? Never having to worry.aboit money, having the best of everything, health care, food, travel and so on. People to do all the work for you. From cleaning to gardening, diy, car servicing etc.

Most people would do it and use their time to make an actual impact on the lives of the people living in the country that pays for their life. Hence dedicating their lives to public service. Or grt jobs. Many of the European royals manage it all.

He financially supports her and she covers for his SA of an underage teen who was been trafficked.

You will never understand the behaviour of that family because they have been raised to believe that they are better than everyone else.

And regularly photographed attending their local church in Scotland.

Maybe she was feeling okay that day. But now they are recovering from a holiday that may have took it out of her in an effort to put on a brave face for the sake of her kids?

You really do seem very uncaring about a man supporting his young family and recently sick wife.

I'm not sure how that would be possible, given that with an established church the monarch is automatically its head?

Unless of course they went for disestablishment, which would also suit me just fine

Ask that to a 70 year old and see what they say. Swings and roundabouts etc.

Wishful thinking

I did think they'd remarry after PP but it couldn't have been long before PP died that the Epstien stuff came out.

They might still remarry, for inheritance purposes 🤔

That's not how age works. 😆

I think Henry VIII is a proof that you can do what you want when you’re the King 🤣🫣

Because she can’t afford it. Her payout from her disgusting husband was not enough to support her financially. She got caught selling time with the royal family and after that was uncovered she had zero way to financially support herself. So she moved back in with Andrew and she supports his disgusting predilections. There’s no way to understand this family. They aren’t normal.
