Fergie's Royal Conundrum: Will She Return to Royal Lodge?

Following her departure from Royal Lodge earlier this year, Sarah Ferguson, the former Duchess of York, is now facing a dilemma. With many of her personal belongings still inside the Windsor residence, she may be forced to make an unwanted return to the property she called home for nearly two decades. The decision by King Charles to have Sarah and her ex-husband, Andrew, vacate the premises in February has led to a significant upheaval in her life. Despite maintaining a low profile, Sarah has remained close to her daughters and grandchildren, with recent reports suggesting she may be residing in Portugal, where her daughter Princess Eugenie has just given birth to her third child. The former Duchess's living arrangements have been the subject of much speculation, with her previously staying at a property in Switzerland owned by her friend and former partner, Paddy McNally, who sadly passed away in July 2026 at the age of 88.
