Last week, Prince Andrew pulled out of the pre-Christmas lunch at Buckingham Palace, and his people announced that Andrew and Sarah Ferguson would skip Christmas at Sandringham. King Charles absolutely invited Andrew and Fergie, and they were due to stay at Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate, as they have done for the past two Christmases. Alongside that announcement, we heard that the York princesses, Eugenie and Beatrice, would also skip Sandringham this year and spend the holidays with their in-laws. Eugenie would spend Christmas with Jack Brooksbank?s family for the first time in years, and Beatrice had plans to spend the holiday with Edo Mapelli Mozzi?s family, probably in Italy. Only now there?s been another switch-up Beatrice and Edo are apparently going to Sandringham after all.
Pregnant Princess Beatrice has been ordered by doctors to stay home in the UK for Christmas in case travelling endangers her baby. The late Queens granddaughter was planning to spend Christmas overseas with her property tycoon husbands family for the first time since their marriage in 2020. But Buckingham Palace announced last night that the Princess, 36, who is in the final months of her second pregnancy, has changed her festive plans following medical advice that she should not travel for long distances.
On October 1, the Palace announced Princess Beatrice was expecting the baby in early spring. She is now in the third trimester of her pregnancy, which starts from 28 weeks. Dr Ellie Cannon, Mail on Sunday columnist and GP, said: There are a whole host of reasons why somebody in their third trimester may not be able to fly. Different acute issues might be something common such as a chest infection or even a viral illness, which can be quite serious in pregnancy. Flying can make this worse because of dehydration and sitting still for hours which can also raise the risk of blood clots. More long-term issues could be high blood pressure or diabetes. Travelling long distance can be dangerous in this scenario because of the ongoing monitoring needed.
The Princess will now celebrate at Sandringham with the Royal Family, alongside husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, 40, her stepson Wolfie, eight, and daughter Sienna, three. She is not expected to join the family in their walk to church on Christmas morning. The Princess has attended other public events recently, including the pre-Christmas Lunch at Buckingham Palace on Thursday.
It is not known exactly where Beatrice was planning to travel to spend Christmas, but it was reported that she had been planning to celebrate with her in-laws. Her husband Mr Mapelli Mozzi, known as Edo, is the son of former Olympic skier Count Alessandro Mapelli Mozzi and Nikki Williams-Ellis. The family owns an 18th Century mansion an hour from Lake Como in northern Italy.

That makes sense to me Beatrice was told not to fly, so she and Edo updated their Christmas plans once again. I?m surprised that there are no plans for Bea and Edo to do the Christmas church-walk, but that might be health-

Sarah Ferguson was in New York two weeks ago, did y?all know that? I didn?t. There was barely any coverage of her visit in the American or British media. She was in NYC for UN Climate Week, same as Prince Harry. She hasn?t said if they saw each other. She was invited to the launch of Youth Impact Council, which has asked her to be a Founding Ambassador. To celebrate, Fergie spoke to People Magazine about her love of New York and her love of America, in general.
Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, has a special place in her heart for the city of New York. In an interview with PEOPLE on Sept. 25 during New York Climate Week, the Duchess of York reflected on her experiences in the city. During her visit, Ferguson, affectionately known as Fergie, announced the launch of the Youth Impact Council, a new nonprofit organization where she will serve as Founding Ambassador. The council aims to elevate the voices of youth activists who are making significant strides in climate action, social justice, and innovation.
When asked about her plans during her time in N.Y.C., Fergie referenced a quintessential delicacy ? a hot dog with mustard, ketchup, sauerkraut and relish!
It was so good! And everyone laughed at me, saying, You can?t possibly eat the hot dog. And I said, Oh, yeah, got in the car, and what did they do? [They] all wanted to eat it! she tells PEOPLE.
I like to get yellow cabs, the Duchess of York, 64, shares about her N.Y.C. traditions. My favorite film is An Affair to Remember, so every time I see the Empire State Building I think of Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr. I know youve seen Sleepless in Seattle, but I remember An Affair to Remember with Cary Grant.
New York has been my home. The American people are extraordinarily kind to me, Fergie tells PEOPLE. I feel I am very Anglo-American. I know the language. I got it down. I don?t say lift, I say elevator. When I arrive in America, I speak American. Sort of. With a posh voice, she jokes.
[From People]
Fergie has never really talked sh-t about America America gave her a second chance, she made a lot of money in America, and she clearly enjoys the vibe here. She, more than anyone else associated with that family, understands why Harry chose to move to California. A fully-loaded hot dog though?? Even I wouldn?t do that. Okay, maybe I would get one without the sauerkraut.

It?s still sort of amazing to me that Sarah Ferguson has continued to receive invitations to glitzy charity balls and galas around the world. She really is a ?royal for hire? in that sense, although I?m not saying that Fergie lacks a charitable spirit. She shows up for charities consistently and good for her. But she?s also getting those invitations because of her title, because charities want someone with some kind of vague royal connection. So it was when Fergie got invited to the Knights Of Charity Gala at Chateau de la Croix des Gardes, in the south of France. She was even tasked with ?helping out? with an auction, and she decided to throw in a special offer. From Richard Eden?s Mail column:
King Charles is said to be determined to evict his brother Prince Andrew from Royal Lodge, but the Windsor residence has lost none of its cachet. For I can disclose that Sarah, Duchess of York, who lives at Royal Lodge with her ex-husband Andrew, used the 30-room mansion to lure a plutocrat into donating 100,000 euros [84,000] at a charity gala on the French Riviera this week. Fergie berated the audience at the Knights of Charity Gala at the Chateau de la Croix des Gardes, in Cannes, for lacking energy on Monday evening.
She then helped top auctioneer Simon de Pury raise money by volunteering to entertain a super-rich bidder at the royal residence which used to be home to Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother.
What Im offering is a unique experience with me, wherever you want to go in the world, whether it be Samoa, or whether you come with me in one of my charity adventures, or it could be in London or at the Royal Lodge, she told guests, who included the Hollywood star Orlando Bloom. Anywhere you want to go. You dont know where youre going to end up, but itll always be something different.
The duchess, 64, wore a monochrome gown complete with black opera gloves, which she said was a style tribute to Alfred Hitchcocks 1955 film To Catch a Thief, which starred Cary Grant and Grace Kelly. It was filmed at the chateau where the gala was held in partnership with Ulyssia.
I like the theme, you know, of Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly, she tells me. And I can wear my gloves. No, I dont feel hot in them, I love them. I think its rather nice to keep up with this. I just like wearing gloves.
Fergie will resume her Australia book tour in November, after cancelling her scheduled appearance at a literary festival in Perth the previous month because she didnt want to clash with the King and Queen Camillas visit Down Under.
[From The Daily Mail]
While there?s definitely a sleazy element to this, I don?t know, it was for charity?? That?s the whole reason she was there, to be loud and to convince people to donate more. ?You dont know where youre going to end up, but itll always be something different.? Fergie is so wild. But yeah, she should probably stop offering up private dinners at Royal Lodge in exchange for cash, even if that cash is going to charity. Because we know that she probably still offers access to the Windsors for cash privately too. That being said, King Charles does the exact same thing only much worse.

Sarah Ferguson started a podcast months ago, before she was diagnosed with breast cancer. I have no idea if her pod is successful, but I would assume most people really just don?t care. Still, because Fergie is toeing the Firm?s line for the most part, she must be hyped as the next big thing in? American broadcasting?? The Mail is trying to start the rumor that Fergie might end up hosting an American talk show. Like? this isn?t a real thing. It seems the real story is that Fergie is back to scheming for a way to make money so she can ?support? her ex-husband.
The Duchess of York is hoping to land a lucrative chat show in America in a bid to help her ex-husband, Prince Andrew, pay his mounting bills. TV producer Amy Rosenblum told The Mail on Sunday that she met Sarah Ferguson at New Yorks Regency Hotel last month and discussed possible formats. Ms Rosenblum, one of the most respected figures in US television, who was a long-time producer of Americas top-rated breakfast programme, NBCs Today Show, said: Sarah told me, I want a show! I want a show! I did a pilot with her about 15 years ago. We were up against Ellen DeGeneres and ultimately they went with Ellen. But Sarah was really good when we did the pilot. We have been friends since then.
Ms Rosenblum declined to comment on specific pitches which may be in the pipeline. But an insider at ABC TV, part of giant Disney Studios, said: Fergie could reasonably expect to earn around 2million a year, but that figure would go up considerably should her show be a hit.
Shes always gone down well in America. Shes never been too proud to promote the heck out of anything, be it one of her books or WeightWatchers. Americans respect someone who hustles.
The ABC source said: Ellen has retired so there is a gap in the market.
Fergie is reportedly keen to help bankroll 2million worth of essential maintenance work at Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park.Andrew had faced losing his 30-room mansion until he paid 200,000 for urgent roof repairs this summer. A source told the Mail on Sunday: Its true Sarah wants to help Andrew stay in what she considers their family home. She lives at Royal Lodge when shes in the UK. Its very much their familys base. Andrew has lost so much. She will do everything she can to help him keep the house, even though it may prove untenable in the long term.
Friends say that the Prince has been left bereft by events and is a lost soul.
He rides his horses and goes for long walks but he is a lost soul and veers between bafflement and feeling bereft by the turn of events, said one woman who is in touch with members of his inner circle. He has always maintained his innocence and those close to him believe him absolutely. He is struggling. He was able to pay for the emergency roof repairs but that was very much an interim fix. The overall repair bill is considerably higher and you have to factor in the day-to-day running costs of a place like Royal Lodge.
Money, or the lack of it, has been a constant in Andrew and Sarahs relationship. She will do everything she can to support him now, just as she always has.
[From The Daily Mail]
The Mail also name-checked Kelly Clarkson and Drew Barrymore (but failed to mention Jennifer Hudson) as talk-show hostesses who are trying to fill the daytime market following Ellen?s exit. Again, Fergie isn?t getting a network talk show. Americans wish her well, but we?re not dying to see her on a talk show, and these days, her baggage (Andrew, Jeffrey Epstein) would weigh down the show. As I said, the real point of this story is ?poor broke Andrew.? ?He is a lost soul and veers between bafflement and feeling bereft by the turn of events?He has always maintained his innocence and those close to him believe him absolutely.? Bafflement? Does he not remember all of the teenage girls procured for him by Jeffrey Epstein? Did someone force him to settle out of court with Virginia Giuffre? Did someone force him to lie his ass off in a BBC interview? Good lord. The Yorks are a complete disaster, and I really hope that Eugenie and Beatrice are smarter about money and their associations.

Sarah Ferguson is on a book tour in New York this week to promote her latest historical romance. She stopped by Good Morning America in a segment which aired Tuesday, and after she spoke about her book, she gave even more quotes about the Windsors, how much she adores and respects King Charles, and how much she likes the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
After QEII?s death, she ?feels liberated?: ?Its like Ive taken the mental shackles out of my brain. I dont know whether its the queen passing on that I now think I can just sort of say openly what I want to say without worrying Im going to offend somebody. Im really truly authentic Sarah now.?
On the Chubbly: She also still believes in the ?absolute unequivocal institution of the monarchy? and is looking forward to her former brother-in-law King Charless coronation in May. ?I totally support the King and the Queen Consort?Ive known them all my life,? she said, although she added that shes not sure whether or not she will be invited to the big event. The duchess added that she has ?adored? Charles all her life and believes ?he is an extraordinary person.?
On Harry: What Im thrilled about is seeing Harry so happy. Hes got his lovely wife and hes got beautiful children. He deserves to be loved.?
[From VF]
She?s also said (a few times) that she hasn?t been invited to the coronation but she adds that the invitations haven?t gone out yet. It sounds like she?s prepared to sit at home and eat a sandwich during the coronation. She also says that if Diana was still here, the two of them would be having a ?granny-off,? and that Diana would be immensely proud of her grandchildren. Of course, she also says tons of sh-t about Prince Andrew. My favorite part is when she says outright that QEII told her to keep writing shes practically giving her books the royal warrant.

Sarah Ferguson is still promoting her latest romance novel, which is why she keeps giving interviews where she talks about her ex-husband?s family. To be fair, everyone asks her about the Windsors and she?s just answering those questions as diplomatically as she can. She still adores her human-trafficker rapist ex. She also says nice things about King Charles and the coronation. She saves her warmest answers for the late QEII. But she also answers questions about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex with a surprising amount of? grace?? Is that the right word? Some highlights from Fergie?s Telegraph interview:
On QEII: ?She understood all of it. Everything. And it wasn?t even about forgiving, but a way of life. Duty, sense of purpose, but of course never judgment.? The Duchess will always be grateful to have had ?even a minute of HM?s time. Because also, during the last three years, her poor son [Prince Andrew] has been going through such a tumultuous time, and I think HM was very relieved I could help her with him, so we became even closer, then. But I?ve always admired and adored her. Really, she was more of a mother to me than my mother.?
Being a princess: ?The thing is, I had the great honour of being the Queen?s daughter-in-law, and therefore I couldn?t not see every single second as a great learning curve.? OK. But having to get all dressed up for royal functions? ?Loved it.? Having to sit through those functions? ?Loved it. Loved it. Listen, if every little girl?s dream is to be a princess, then your job is to uphold that dream. So I don?t ever want to let it down.? For that reason, she has always said to her daughters: ?Even when you?re just walking out of your own front door, always smile. Uphold all that. No one wants to see a grumpy princess.?
Whether the Duchess of Sussex is a ?grumpy princess?: ?I don?t really know Meghan. I haven?t really met her. I spoke to her at the funeral, and I thought she looked absolutely beautiful. I think she is beautiful.?
Has Meghan damaged the Royal family? ?It is absolutely not my place to answer that. She has made Harry very happy, and that is so nice. Honestly, he?s so happy with her. She really loves him. And I think that?s beautiful ? and that Diana would be proud of him and her lovely grandchildren.?
Whether she watched the Sussexes? Netflix docuseries: ?I?m just trying to think? Right.? She?s formulated a response. ?So, I think I?m a devourer of information on Netflix.? OK? ?And I love watching everything on Netflix.? What am I supposed to do with that? She chuckles. ?I also think that one day I?d like to do a documentary.? A similar one? ?I don?t know. I can?t be led,? she says, shutting me down. ?Not on this.?
Does she think fleeing Britain really will turn out to be Prince Harry?s best chance at happiness? ?I can?t speak for him, but I will say that after I got divorced, I spent 12 years in America, writing books, and it was a wonderful place for me. I felt free there. And I can?t thank Americans enough for the way they were with me. So, I can understand why he would [do that].?
King Charles is brilliant: ?I think it?ll be an extraordinary moment. And I feel really strongly that the King is brilliant. He upholds everything that is good. I mean, what he?s done for the environment! What he?s done in his life! How he loves to paint, how he loves to walk, how he loves to be. He is a very special person. So for him to have a moment where everybody looks up and understands how hard he and the Royal family has worked, is important.?
The coronation: It should, Sarah believes, ?be a moment when the entire world will say, right: we?ve got this. And now we?ll unite again and go on again. We are not?? she laughs, corrects herself, ?they are not celebrities. They are part of an extraordinary institution, and they go out and do their work. That?s what I did when I became a princess. Whatever happened, happened. We don?t go back. But whether I?m in or out, I?ll always uphold it.?
[From The Telegraph]
This is the fundamental thing which the family doesn?t understand or want to understand: ?She has made Harry very happy, and that is so nice. Honestly, he?s so happy with her. She really loves him.? Meghan has made Harry happy, Meghan loves him and adores him and vice versa. I think there was always this fundamental misconception within the family that Meghan was expendable to Harry, or that they could convince him to leave her, or they could treat her terribly and convince her to leave him. The Windsors fundamentally do not see it as a plus that Harry and Meghan are a love match.
I also think Fergie is flat-out copying what Meghan has said about being a princess and how she feels she has to carry herself a certain way because she knows little girls are watching her. Like? Meghan said all of that last year. I also like that Fergie is just defending the idea that America is a nice place to live. Anyway, I?d rather ignore all of the crazy sh-t she says about Andrew. Whatever.

Sarah Ferguson already arranged for this People Magazine exclusive before the news broke about King Charles trying to evict Prince Andrew from Royal Lodge. Charles?s plan is to remove Andrew from Royal Lodge? and put him in Frogmore Cottage, because Charles is evicting the Sussexes. This affects Fergie because she?s been living at Royal Lodge rent-free for more than a decade. She has her own room or suite, she films videos at Royal Lodge and conducts interviews there and all of that. Y?all know Fergie is going to spitting mad about all of Charles?s schemes, but maybe she was already preparing for them too. In any case, Fergie spoke to People Magazine about QEII, the corgis and her latest book.
QEII was her idol. She put you at ease straightaway . . . because its terrifying, you know? I used to sit there for hours thinking, Oh my gosh, this is somebodys lifetime to have an audience with the Queen, and Im sitting having a cup of tea.? She was so brilliant at putting you at ease. She had the most incredible faith of any single person Ive ever met. She just knew what to do. She knew how to make people feel good. She never took it onboard as about her. Its about the monarchy, about making someone feel good. She was my total idol.
Her fiction book, A Most Intriguing Lady, explores history?s invisible women: I have been invisible for my own self for a very long time now, and so now Im just beginning to sort of liberate and sort of test the waters, right? So invisible women for me, and a voice from the grave is crucial for me, which is why I chose this period in history. Because for example, Lady Margaret and Lady Mary [the real-life heroines of her two novels], all their brothers were written about but they werent. So I think my real love is to take an invisible woman from the grave and say, Right, this is your story. How would you like it to be told? And just tell it.
The tension between lineage and duty: I think its much easier for me to answer that now that the Queen is not here. A lot of my sense of duty was because I wanted to uphold exactly the way the Queen did it, and my father before that, and my mother before that. I do think that its your own value system that you have to uphold ? and your own rule book of life.
If she were to talk to Queen Elizabeth today: She would tell her about the magnolia trees in the garden, because she loved that, and the primroses on the banks of Windsor, and the snowdrops. She would love that her doggies were walking wherever she walked before.
Adopting the corgis after QEII?s death: They are national icons, so every time they run chasing a squirrel, I panic. But theyre total joys, and I always think that when they bark at nothing, and theres no squirrels in sight, I believe its because the Queen is passing by. Theyre with me a lot, and they think Im very funny.
[From People]
Kind of tacky, right? All of this cozying up to QEII?s memory to shill her tacky book. That being said, QEII was somewhat fond of Fergie, probably because of QEII?s love for Prince Andrew. As for all of the stuff about the dogs? Fergie and Andrew both keep trying to make that story happen. The thing is, QEII only had those two dogs for a matter of months, and the dogs were given to the Queen BY Andrew and Fergie. They wanted her to have puppies in the last months of her life.
Also: Fergie talking about a ?value system? is something else. She cheats, she lies, she protects rapists and pedophiles, she sells out everyone she?s ever known, she steals, she?s made and lost fortunes, she takes shady loans and sells access, and on and on. While she?s not claiming any moral high ground, please don?t act like Fergie has ever tried to behave with dignity or decorum.

Last year, Sarah Ferguson mysteriously ?purchased? a 4 million home in the Mayfair district of London. Fergie has lived with her ex-husband Prince Andrew for years, at Royal Lodge in Windsor. King Charles has always been perturbed by Fergie?s presence in Royal Lodge, but still, that?s been the Yorks? living arrangement for years, mostly because they?re always ?broke.? Too ?broke? to buy their own home, too broke to pay off all of the loans and liens on their Swiss chalet (which they mysteriously bought, even though everyone thought they were broke). Fergie?s purchase of this Mayfair home did not go unnoticed, but there has been precious little follow-up on the initial reporting. No one knows how Fergie can afford it or why she hasn?t moved into the property or what the hell any of this means. Well, here?s a minor update:
Given Sarah, Duchess of Yorks well-documented financial mishaps, it was something of a surprise that she was able to splash out on a 4 million home in London. Now the mystery over how she afforded the Belgravia property has deepened after it emerged she cannot sell it without written consent signed by her daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.
Official Land Registry documents obtained by The Mail on Sunday reveal the unusual restriction was placed on the pretty mews terrace when Fergie, 63, bought it in June last year. The deeds also reveal she paid 4.25 million outright without need of a mortgage.
Last night, a top legal source told the MoS that the restriction placed on the property suggests that her daughters may have stumped up the funds. That could be one explanation, they said, adding: But it also could mean that whoever purchased the property wants to make sure that her daughters ultimately benefit from it. Usually a restriction like this one is needed to stop conmen taking advantage of vulnerable elderly relatives and selling their house from under them when they are in a care home, but I dont think that applies in this case.
A source close to the Duchess last night declined to discuss whether she had paid for the mews home herself, stating it was a private matter, however, they alluded to Fergies recent publishing success, adding: She has bought it very much as a nest egg for the girls so it does not surprise me at all that she has put that kind of provision in.
[From The Daily Mail]
Yeah, I have more questions than answers. She paid for the home upfront, without a mortgage? She had that kind of money? I actually doubt her daughters have that kind of money, and even if they did, would they spend it on buying Fergie a home (which she?s not even using)? And I doubt that Fergie has gotten that kind of advance from her latest publishing contract too. All in all, it?s bonkers. I would really appreciate someone, anyone doing a deep dive on the Yorks? finances because every time we?re talking about money, Fergie and Andrew, it always sounds like they?re con artists knee-deep in like twelve different scams.

Sarah Ferguson has always made a lot of money in America. Once she and Prince Andrew divorced, she became a spokesperson for Weight Watchers and got a publishing contract for her line of children?s books. She honestly made enough to pay off all of her debts and live quite comfortably for years? except that Fergie is terrible with money and she?s always working a million different scams. All of which to say, she?s made and lost several fortunes already, and she?s currently rebuilding her finances yet again with a brand new book contract and a promotional book tour. Fergie is coming to New York in early March and the press release about her appearance is getting a lot of attention:
The Duchess of York will speak about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle during an appearance in New York City while she will be promoting her romance novel, A Most Intriguing Lady.
Sarah Fergie Ferguson, 62, will be appearing at the cultural center 92nd Street Y on March 6. According to the press release, the duchess will also be talking about her relationship with the Queen and answer a few questions about Harry and Meghan.
The press release describes Fergies novel as drawing upon historical characters and biographical elements from the Duchess royal life and family lineage.
The release also refers Fergie as the former sister-in-law to King Charles. Between 1986 and 1996, the duchess was married to the kings younger brother, Prince Andrew, who has been widely criticized in recent years for his close relationship with financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
[From The Daily Mail]
I mean? this isn?t some new thing. Whenever she gives interviews, she talks about her ex-husband?s family and her ex-husband. She still lives at Royal Lodge with Prince Andrew, and once Prince Philip passed away, Fergie has even been included in tons of family events. Do I think it?s tacky AF that Fergie?s team put Harry and Meghan?s names in the press release? Yes. It is, just as it?s tacky to put QEII?s name in there too. This is the kind of tackiness the Windsors were expecting from the Sussexes, by the way. They thought Harry & Meghan would be desperate and grasping for any connection with royalty.

Sarah Ferguson is always broke and always hustling. She has so many schemes, scams, grifts and cons, I can?t keep up. What?s weird is that Fergie is actually a successful author, if she had the good sense to manage her money, she wouldn?t need to scam and grift all the time. But she does not have any kind of good sense. I bet she?s broke right now, as she lives rent-free at Royal Lodge with her ex-husband Prince Andrew. So where does this fit in? Fergie has scored a 22-book deal with an Australian publisher. 22 BOOKS.
Sarah Fergie Ferguson better get a bigger library! The Duchess of York has just signed a new 22-book deal with Australian publishers Serenity Press that includes three new young adult novels. And the 62-year-old grandmother says she will channel some of her own painful experiences from her teenage years when it comes to her writing.
Young adults are perhaps the fastest-growing category of new fiction today. Theres just something about adolescence ? with all its incredible triumphs and heartbreaking failures? that makes it the perfect backdrop for powerful storytelling, Ferguson says in a statement.
Ferguson will draw from her personal struggles with mental health and eating disorders.
I wanted to share my story of growing up with anxiety and an eating disorder, along with witnessing firsthand the effects of generational trauma. For me, it is always present and it all started at the loss of my mother, says Ferguson, whose mother, Susan Barrantes, died in 1998. Her first young adult book, Demons Land, will be released at the end of June. It comes after the success of her debut novel, Her Heart for a Compass, a coming-of-age story based on the tale of one of her ancestors, Lady Margaret Montagu Douglas Scott, which came out last August. A follow-up is scheduled for January 2023.
[From People]
Yeah, YA is a huge chunk of the publishing industry these days, and Fergie is seemingly positioning herself as a scammy Judy Blume. Pass! But I?m fascinated by the fact that Fergie or anyone?? could get a 22-book deal.
She?s already promoting this new YA book, Demons Land, and in a new interview, she claimed that she knows what it feels like to be ?segregated.? No, really. She said: ?I?ve always felt judged, which is why I support the LGBTQ+ community. I know what it?s like to be segregated. I?m 62 now and it still hurts, even now, when someone has a pop at me.? ?Segregated? is not the word for it, Fergie, it?s too loaded a term, a term implying structural or codified division. What she means is simpler she felt isolated, left out. Fergie always feels like she?s the most oppressed though. It?s painful.
