If I were Fergie...

[CapitalAtRisk]

... I would change my name to Sarah York, by deedpoll. There's absolutely nothing stopping her!

I don't know if Windsor or Mountbatten-Windsor are "protected" names in some way, but York sure isn't.

Except they aren't are they. Louise doesn't use the title but she could. Andrew really is an entitled idiot.

As to Sarah, I doubt even she is stupid enough to antagonise the King and William further.

I believe she already goes by Sarah Ferguson.
Why "stick 2 fingers up" at the royals/Charles? I'm no royalist, but the person at fault in this scenario is Andrew Windsor.
She comes across as thoroughly unpleasant as well.

Oh I totally agree. It would've been lovely of Edward and Sophie had used the princess title on Louise from birth just to shut Andrew up.

It's such an embarrassingly tenuous claim too, the 9th and 10th in line to the throne are "blood princesses". Great, brilliant but who really cares.

I don’t think the King is the bad guy here.

No, indeed.

He is to the grifting couple.

Doesn’t everyone just refer to her as Fergie anyway?

I think she's more concerned with how she can style herself, and how a title opens doors.

Was Ok for the now sainted Duchess of Edinburgh though!!

This has been her modus operandi since she got divorced. She wrote a book saying how it wasn't her fault blah de blah. She went on Oprah saying how the men in grey suits were mean to her, how it was so awful being a royal wife and it wasn't her fault.
Nothing is her fault

The email literally pleading with a convicted sex trafficker of young girls was absolutely nauseating. Her supreme friend that she had to be bedridden after hellaciously letting Epstein down. She was afraid her money was going to be cut off because it is said he gave her millions, not thousands.

A lot of women revert to their maiden name after divorce. 29 years too late but that is what she should do.

No, it was never "ok". The point is that she learned her lesson and moved on. She didn't pretend it was fine, then continue with murky dealings £££ and friendships with people like Epstein.

I agree. If I remember correctly, she wasn't blatantly selling access to her husband.

Sarah was blatantly doing that. Glugging wine, smoking, saying £500,000 in my account and boom, I'll open doors for you.

Sophie made a huge mistake but she gave up her career and didn't make that sort of glaring mistake again
Sarah carried on and just got worse and worse.

Louise is a blood princess.

If my father was accused of being a pedophile and traitor to his nation, despite his life of luxury, id be staying as far away as possible and seeking solace in my wider family

Technically she is just like Zara but its not a title either of them use, is it? Unlike the York girls.

Who is just like Zara?
Zara is the daughter of Princess Anne. She hasn't married royalty. She doesn't have a title because her parents chose for her not to have one.

The two of them are so awful that nobody else would have them so they are stuck with each other. I used to feel sorry for Sarah as she a big friendly horsey girl always compared to the stylish slim Diana. But she caused her own downfall by her sleazy antics and then the money grabbing . Weight Watcher ? ? Didn't she get enough settlement to not have to do that ?

Yes , I'd have gone NC long before this!

She’s just as sleazy as him (financially at least).

If both my parents were revealed to be avid supporters of a convicted child sex abuser, my father embroiled in with Chinese spies and my mother a grifter with a history of trying to sell access to my dad then I'd be avoiding both of them like the plague.

But we know that B & E still remain close to both parents so what else can one conclude other than that they want the best of both worlds?

No amount of money is enough for these people. Greedy buggers.

Louise. Both grandchildren of the then monarch. Neither have princess titles.

This. Absolutely 💯.
Plus it wasn't that long ago that they were lobbying KC and PW to get their dad back in the fold.
Plus, didn't Beatrice set up the Emily Maitlis interview?

Right.

No, Louise, Beatrice and Eugenie have exactly the same royal standing. Princesses of the blood, granddaughters of the monarch through the male line.

Zara is not a princess, being a granddaughter through the female line. She cannot style herself ‘Princess Zara’ because she is not a princess. Louise is a princess and can style herself ‘Princess Louise’ if she so wishes.
