Prince Andrew faced a significant setback as his former wife, Sarah Ferguson, encountered a stumbling block in her television aspirations.
The Duchess of York’s appearance on This Morning took a tumultuous turn, drawing a mix of reviews from viewers.
Dubbed as “Royal Pancakes,” the segment saw Fergie stepping in to co-host, filling the void left by Holly Willoughby’s departure.
However, the reception to her hosting skills proved divisive among the audience.
Reports indicate that Sarah Ferguson is currently engaged in discussions with ITV regarding potential future appearances on prominent panel shows.
These talks unfold against the backdrop of her endeavor to support Prince Andrew‘s bid to maintain their residence at Royal Lodge, their shared abode since 2002.
King Charles reportedly harbors intentions to relocate his brother and former sister-in-law, who continues to reside with her ex-partner, from their expansive 30-room estate.
The latest developments transpire in the aftermath of the emergence of new revelations pertaining to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.
Notably, Prince Andrew’s name reportedly featured prominently in the released documents, being mentioned a staggering 69 times.
Allegations within the documents allude to the royal’s involvement in illicit activities, including allegations of participation in an underage orgy.
An insider from ITV conveyed that Sarah Ferguson’s prospects of securing a permanent position on This Morning appeared bleak.
Despite this assessment, the source lauded her presence on set, describing her as a delightful addition to the team.
Speculation had circulated that the Duchess was being considered as a replacement for Holly Willoughby on the popular program.
However, representatives of Sarah Ferguson clarified that such rumors were unfounded, dismissing any plans for her to assume a regular role on the show.
Nonetheless, a close associate of the Duchess revealed ongoing discussions with ITV regarding potential comebacks to both This Morning and Loose Women.
Emphasizing Sarah’s commitments to her writing endeavors and charitable initiatives, the source emphasized that a full-time hosting role was never part of the equation for either party.
