Fergie’s children’s book axed before it goes on sale amid Epstein scandal | Royal | News
Sarah Ferguson is facing a fresh blow as her latest children’s book was canceled before it hit shelves, amid the scandal over her links to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Sarah and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor were stripped of their titles due to the Epstein scandal, and Andrew’s princely title was also stripped.
Sarah, 66, will publish her book, Flora and Fern: Kindness Along the Way, on October 9, a press release at Bookseller said. At the beginning of last week, it was stated that the children’s book would be available for purchase from November 20, but it appears that it has been removed and is no longer for sale.
NielsonIQ Book Data has now been marked “retired from sale” at the publisher’s request. BBC.
Sarah came under fire in September following new revelations about an email she sent to Epstein after he was released from prison for child sex crimes in 2011.
The email sent was previously reported at: Sun and Mail on Sunday. It read: “I know you are sorely disappointed in me, and for that I must humbly apologize to you and your heart.
“You have always been a loyal, generous and great friend to me and my family. I apologize for not responding to your email or reaching you today. I was bedridden with fear. I was paralyzed.”
“I was firmly advised to have nothing to do with you and not to talk to you or email you. And if I did that I would cause more trouble for you, the Duke, and myself. I was hurt and lost. So please understand. I didn’t want to hurt Andrew again. I was in great fear. I’m sorry.”
The former couple, who still live together despite their divorce in 1996, agreed to relinquish their titles as well as leaving the Royal Lodge.
Andrew and Sarah, 65, have lived in the 30-room property since 2003 and it was recently revealed that the royal family had only paid “pepper rent” for decades.
It is unknown where the former couple will live after leaving the house they have lived in for 22 years. Sarah is said to be eyeing Adelaide Cottage, while Andrew is said to be keen on Frogmore Cottage.
