It seems Sarah Ferguson, the former Duchess of York, is allegedly ready to say goodbye to her ex, ex-Prince Andrew, amid all the controversies. As they prepare to leave the Royal Lodge, it seems Ferguson’s loyalty is all dried up, too.

In Rob Shuter’s Naughty but Nice Substack, he revealed what royal insiders told him: specifically, how Ferguson is allegedly completely done being loyal to Andrew.

“He can no longer provide her a free home, zero rent… she’s out!” an inside source said to Shuter. “Sarah’s fed up with living in his mess — and she believes distancing herself now might save what’s left of her reputation.”

They added, “Andrew’s problems are her problems. She benefited from him for years. Now that the perks are gone, so is her loyalty. She’s realized she doesn’t need him or his drama. But getting away from it — and from her own role in it — isn’t going to be easy.”

Ferguson maintained a close friendship with the former Duke of York after their 1992 separation, even living with him at his Royal Lodge until the Jeffrey Epstein scandals, financial scandals, and more came out that led to both her and Andrew losing their titles and royal amenities.

There have been rumors of her leaving for Portugal, the US, or even the Middle East. But no matter, it seems she’s done being Andrew’s right-hand woman, and is allegedly working to fix her reputation on her own (without her A-list pals who left her side when the controversy came out).
