Sarah Ferguson has officially dropped her Duchess of York title from Companies House records, following a recent change to her social media profile name, as disclosed by the Daily Mail.

This alteration is reflected in the updated records of her business, Planet Partners Productions Limited, just two days after her title was removed from her social media bios.

The move coincides with revisions to the Royal Family’s website, which now no longer lists Prince Andrew’s dukedom and other titles, as a result of the fallout from the Jeffrey Epstein scandal.

In response to the controversy, King Charles had warned his brother that he would be stripped of his titles unless he voluntarily relinquished them, a stance that was supported by Prince William.

Ferguson’s details for Planet Partners have been updated to her birth name, ‘Sarah Margaret Ferguson,’ replacing the previous ‘Sarah, Duchess of York.’

Additionally, her role description has been changed from ‘director’ to ‘charity patron, spokesperson, writer, and TV presenter.’

And she no longer goes by the handle ‘SarahTheDuchess’ on her X account but is now ‘sarahMFergie15’. 

Fergie – who received her royal title through her marriage in 1986 – will now be known simply as Sarah Ferguson in any official capacities.

Her Duchess of York title was the only connection to the Royal Family Fergie had retained after she divorced Andrew in 1996 and ceased being a Royal Highness.

Despite their divorce, the couple continued to live together at the lavish 30-bedroom Royal Lodge at Windsor. 

But pressure is mounting on Prince Andrew to give up his mansion after not paying rent for 22 years, the Daily Mail revealed this week. 

He has for two decades lived rent-free at the property, paying just ‘one peppercorn (if demanded) per annum’ – according to the terms of his lease made public by the Crown Estate, which hands its profits to the Treasury for the benefit of the nation’s finances. 

Parliamentary committees could now look into the Crown Estate’s handling of the grandiose home set in 98 pristine acres of Windsor Great Park. 

On Monday, all references to the Duke of York were axed from royal.uk and he is now referred to as Prince Andrew throughout.   

The royal.uk website reads: ‘On 13 January 2022, Buckingham Palace announced that, with Queen Elizabeth II’s approval and agreement, Prince Andrew’s military affiliations and Royal patronages would be returned to Her late Majesty, and The Prince would not return to public duties. 

‘Prior to stepping back from public life, Prince Andrew undertook a wide range of public work, with a strong economic and business focus.’

Previously it said Duke of York. 

‘Ruthless’ Prince William is beginning to call the shots in the Royal Family including the decision to ostracise Prince Andrew, a leading royal historian claimed. 

Shadow justice secretary Robert Jenrick said yesterday it was, ‘about time Prince Andrew took himself off to live in private’ because ‘the public are sick of him’.

It comes after a posthumous memoir by Virginia Giuffre alleged three sexual encounters with the prince – who gave up his titles last week over his relationship with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein , and his links to an alleged Chinese spy. Andrew has always denied the accusations.

Mr Jenrick, the Tory justice spokesman, told Radio 4: ‘It’s about time Prince Andrew took himself off to live in private and make his own way in life.

‘I don’t see why the taxpayer, frankly, should continue to foot the bill at all. The public are sick of him.’

At the weekend, an allegation emerged that Andrew had asked his police protection officer to investigate claims his accuser Ms Giuffre had a criminal record, which prompted Scotland Yard to launch a probe.

And in her memoir, Ms Giuffre claimed that Andrew’s team tried to hire ‘internet trolls to hassle’ her in an attempt to avoid being served court papers.

Andrew has always denied all the allegations against him.
