Sarah Ferguson has been caught in a web of deceit, revealed in a flattering email she sent to Jeffrey Epstein, referring to him as a ‘steadfast, generous, and supreme friend.’ According to the Mail on Sunday, the Duchess of York apologizes in the email for disappointing the convicted sexual offender, after he allegedly threatened her family with destruction in a alarming phone call.

On a recent episode of Palace Confidential, royal experts discussed whether this scandal might spell trouble for the House of York. Historian and author Andrew Lownie, who recently published Entitled: The Rise and Fall of the House of York, commented on Ferguson’s situation. He remarked, “With Sarah Ferguson, you can never say never. She has a way of reappearing.”

Andrew described Ferguson as a “Houdini of the Royal Family,” referencing her ability to bounce back, even after a 2010 scandal involving the News of the World sting operation, where she was exposed for selling access to Prince Andrew. He suggested that this situation is on a different level.

It seems her ninth life is over, but she may eventually head to China or return to the United States. Currently, King Charles is reluctant to completely sever ties, acknowledging their bond and attempting to prevent her from acting out like the Sussexes, while respecting the late Queen’s wishes.

Andrew further expressed, “The public believes action is needed, but there’s always the fear of making matters worse by creating adversaries. Throughout my research for Entitled, there was this constant undercurrent of her threatening potential actions.”

Richard Eden, the Daily Mail’s Diary Editor, similarly cautioned against a possible end for the House of York, highlighting his hope that it wouldn’t impact Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie.

‘They are blameless in this,’ he said. ‘They’ve never put a foot wrong so they don’t deserve to be punished for the sins of their father. I hope that they will have a role in the future. ‘I personally think it should be the end of the Duchess of York and her role in public life. I don’t see how it can’t be.’

Fergie’s apology was apparently in response to a phone conversation with her spokesman and adviser James Henderson where he claims Epstein threatened legal action.

Describing the call today as ‘chilling’, Mr Henderson said: ‘He [Epstein] said he would destroy the York family and he was quite clear on that. He said he would destroy me. He wasn’t shouting.

‘He had a Hannibal Lecter-type voice. It was very cold and calm and really menacing and nasty’. Henderson went on: ‘It was a chilling call and I’m surprised anybody was ever friends with him given the way he talked to me’.
