The Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson, may face backlash from the members of the British royal family after her questionable choice of shoes<\/a> for an event. The 65-year-old novelist recently took to her Instagram and shared photos from a book signing event. Ferguson wrote in the post\u2019s caption that her novel \u201cHer Heart for a Compass\u201d was \u201calways meant to be a bridge between hearts, stories, and generations.\u201d <\/p>\n

The duchess further shared that signing copies and speaking with \u201cthese incredible creators\u201d brought her \u201cright back to why\u201d she wrote the book \u201cin the first place.\u201d Meanwhile, the internet was quick to notice Ferguson\u2019s choice of footwear for the event. The pair of shoes had the late Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s motto embroidered on them. It read, \u201cNever complain, never explain.\u201d However, the move has reportedly not left the palace aides amused.<\/p>\n

Rob Shuter\u2019s #ShuterScoop<\/a> exclusively learned from a royal insider that the stunt is \u201cdeeply disrespectful at worst.\u201d They said that it is \u201ccheeky at best.\u201d The insider continued to state that the late queen \u201clived that phrase with dignity.\u201d However, they pointed out that the \u201ctrack record\u201d of Ferguson and her ex-husband, Prince Andrew<\/a>, is \u201cnot exactly in the same league.\u201d The former royal couple has previously been embroiled in controversies.<\/p>\n

Couldn\u2019t be worse.\u201d Ferguson and Andrew\u2019s troubled past has been in the spotlight in recent weeks. This is because excerpts from Andrew Lownie\u2019s upcoming book, \u201cEntitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York,\u201d have taken over the headlines. <\/p>\n
