Disturbing new revelations have surfaced about Sarah Ferguson’s worsening financial situation, amid claims that the former Duchess of York could soon be left without a home once she vacates Royal Lodge.

After decades of lavish spending and questionable financial decisions, the 65-year-old Duchess is reportedly facing severe money troubles as she prepares to leave the residence she has shared with her ex-husband, Prince Andrew, for over twenty years.

The End of an Era at Royal Lodge

Ferguson’s move comes after King Charles’s reported decision to remove the remaining titles of her ex-husband, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. The former Duke and Duchess of York have faced renewed public backlash over their connections to the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, leading to the palace’s decision to officially revoke the York Dukedom.

For the “happily divorced” couple, however, losing Royal Lodge—the grand home that symbolized their enduring friendship—will likely be the most devastating blow. The property has long served as Ferguson’s London base for her charity work and a series of ambitious but often ill-fated business ventures.

Mounting Debts and Property Losses

It is understood that Ferguson no longer owns any property following the sale of her Belgravia townhouse earlier this year. The home, which she said she purchased using proceeds from her book sales, was bought for £4.2 million and sold at a £400,000 loss.

This latest financial hit adds to a long history of money problems stretching back to her separation from Prince Andrew in 1992.

A History of Extravagant Spending

Biographer Andrew Lownie, author of Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, revealed that Ferguson has squandered millions over the years maintaining a lavish lifestyle that included butlers, personal trainers, hairdressers, and Pilates instructors—all paid hundreds of pounds simply to remain on standby.

“Even Edward and Anne don’t live at the rate Fergie did,” Lownie said. “She had five times as many staff as Diana.”

Lownie traced Ferguson’s taste for extravagance back to her early romance with Formula 1 magnate Paddy McNally, who introduced her to a life of luxury filled with ski chalets, yachts, and constant travel. She allegedly once spent £51,000 in a single Selfridges shopping spree on clothes and party supplies.

Financial Struggles After Her Divorce

Despite receiving a divorce settlement from the royal family in 1996, Ferguson’s payout was modest compared to Princess Diana’s £17 million. Fergie reportedly received only a one-off payment, a trust fund for her daughters, and a few personal items such as the York tiara.

In a now-infamous incident, Ferguson lost the tiara at JFK Airport after checking it into her luggage. It was later recovered from an airport employee’s locker.

By the late 2000s, Fergie’s debts had soared into the millions, leading to mounting desperation. Her financial woes culminated in a scandalous 2010 tabloid sting, where she was caught attempting to sell access to Prince Andrew for cash.

The Epstein Connection and a Tarnished Reputation

Adding to her troubles, Ferguson accepted money from Jeffrey Epstein to settle some of her debts—a move that drew harsh criticism and further damaged her reputation.

It remains uncertain where Ferguson will live after vacating Royal Lodge. Some royal insiders speculate that she might temporarily stay with one of her daughters. Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, who have largely avoided the fallout from their parents’ scandals, divide their time between homes on royal estates and private residences abroad.

As the once-glamorous Duchess faces the prospect of losing both her royal home and financial security, her story stands as a stark reminder of how privilege and excess can lead to ruin.
