0:00 Ah Calorougus Shark Media at a Love and Welcome through Palasin Dry. I am your host, Mark Francis. Sarah Ferguson has denied claims that she was involved in a long running relationship with rapper Sean Diddy Combs, after new allegations appeared in an updated edition of a royal biography. The claims were made by Royal author Andrew Lowney in the paperback edition of his book entitled, which examines the Rise and Fall of the House of York. According to the book, Ferguson and Combs first met in New York in two thousand and two at a party hosted by Gilain Maxwell.
0:41 Lowney writes the pair later began what he described as a secret friends with benefits relationship in two thousand and four that allegedly continued for several years. The author claims Combs would boast to associates about sleeping with Ferguson, with one former employee at bad Boy Records alleging the rapper spoke about slamming the Duchess of York. Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie reportedly met Combs on several occasions alongside their mother. The book claims Combs once said he could not wait until Fergie's daughters come of age. Lowney alleges Ferguson introduced Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie to Combs on multiple occasions, including during a two thousand and six yacht trip when Princess Eugenie was sixteen years old. Another claiming the book suggests Combs two thousand and six Fragrance Unforgivable was inspired by Ferguson and how she liked a man to smell.
1:33 One source, quoted by Lowney alleged they'd meet in luxurious hotels. They once stayed at a seven star hotel that was over sixty five thousand dollars a night. They spared no expanse. However, the source close to Ferguson strongly denied the allegations, saying this is absolute, fabricated nonsense, blatantly untrue, and yet another false allegation from him. The author told These Sunday Times, I stand by it. It's fully sourced, with former employees appear. He and Sarah Ferguson Combs, who is currently serving a prison sentence after being convicted on transportation for prostitution charges. Has faced multiple allegations and lawsuits in recent years. He has denied wrongdoing in several of those cases. Metro reported Combs caused the claims utterly ridiculous. Royal insided deep Crown writes in his substact Ferguson, it should be noted is no longer a working royal, she has not been for decades.
2:26 Her connection to the institution is familial and historical rather than operational. And yet the story detached themselves to the Crown regardless, because the public and the press do not maintain the careful distinctions that those inside the institution would prefer. The House of York remains in the public imagination royal. What touches it touches the wider family, however unfairly, this is the tax the modern monarchy pays for its continued relevance. An institution that wishes to remain central to national life must accept that it will remain central to national gossip as well. The two cannot be clearly separated, much as those of us who cover the institution more seriously might prefer otherwise. Once spent two rather agreeable weeks discussing state craft and centenary commemorations. The wheel has now turned, and it always does, and here we are again. I do not doubt that further details will emerge. Lowney is not a man who publishes and retreats. The updated paperback arrives on the twenty first of this month, and one anticipates that the intervening period will not be quiet. Those within the institution who had allowed themselves to exhale following a generously successful fortnight are advised to hold their breath once more.
3:39 The paperback edition of entitled The Rise and Fall of the House of York is due for release on May twenty first. Sarah Ferguson has been called a high society grifter in the press, where An insiders saying there are people within elite social circles who now cruelly refer to Sarah as a high society grifter because she's effectively moving from place to place, depending on well the friends for support. She's basically living the life of an upmarket con woman on the run. She hates that perception because she always saw herself as part of a royal partnership, not someone surviving on favors and temporary arrangements. Reports continue to suggest Ferguson could be preparing a highly critical tell all book focused on her former husband Andrew. A source tells Closer magazine Ferguson feels totally justified in writing this tell with the inside claiming the book could be extremely savage when discussing Andrew and the difficulties she believes she had faced during their marriage and its aftermath. The source said, it's becoming abundantly clear that a tell all will be extremely savage when it comes to Andrew and what she feels he put her through. She will probably be quite loathe to go too hard on the Royals, but in her view, Andrew's fair game because he's already been completely cut off and excommunicated, so there won't be any backlash. The insider who also claimed Ferguson believed she was put in difficult and often damage situations by Andrew and left to deal with it all on her own. Beneath all his bluster.
5:05 There's a real panic about what she might actually say because if anyone knows his secrets, Sarah, her whole narrative thus far has been that she's just another victim that he's completely to blame. The last thing he needs is more damage to his reputation. It's no wonder he's beside himself over this. Princess Eugenie reportedly told her mother Sarah about her third pregnancy, leaving Sarah to pass the news on to Andrew. According to the Mail on Sunday, Andrew found out that he was going to be a grandpa again via Sarah and inside It alleged that Eugenie has not spoken to her father since he was stripped of his titles and gave up the lease on Royal Lodge last October. The reporters who claims Eugenie was nervous about informing King Charles of the pregnancy because of the continuing fallout from the scandals surrounding her parents and their links to Jeffrey Epstein. According to the mail, Eugenie eventually wrote to the king after encouragement from her cousin Zara Tyndall.
5:57 The source said Eugenie sent an Easter card with a carefully written letter to her uncle. The insider claimed she and Jack were quite surprised by the warmth of the palace's response. The couple feared a frosty reception and had been contemplating making a mediate announcement of their own without the Palace being involved, but the King maid contact and asked his officials to make a formal announcement. Buckingham Palace later released a statement saying her Royal Highness Princess Eugenie and mister Jack brooks Bank are very pleased to announce they are expecting their third child together to this summer August aged five and earnest aged two. Or also very excited to have another sibling joined the family. His Majesty the King has been informed and is delighted with the news.
6:42 Former BBC Royal correspondent Jenny Bond told The Mirror Eugenie has been under considerable strain since the Epstein scandal blew up. She has watched her parents face public humiliation and separation after decades together. She herself has been in the headlines over her acquaintance with Epstein, and her father is still under police investigation. But she has her man her sons in a new way of life on the way and they am sure are now the center of her world. Eugenie and Beatrice joined a celebrity packed guest list that include Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey. The royal sisters attended Poppy de la Vigne's fortieth birthday celebrations at the Heart Pub in marriyller Bone before the party reportedly moved to the luxury Boutree Hotel and Soho, where guests celebrated into the early hours, more palacing just a moment. The recent security incident involving Andrew could put additional strain on the relationship between Andrew and Charles. Ginny Bond told The Mirror.
7:41 I think Andrew will use this alleged incident to argue that he needs more security funded by his brother, the King, and he will probably feel even more resentful that he has been banished to the more public surroundings of Sandringham. This will obviously make Andrew more nervous about going out, but he does always appear to have at least one bodyguard with him. Is he escaped without harm. But this has proved that Mount Batten Windsor is a target in needs security, and I don't think he will let the King forget it. This must have been a frightening experience which will have shocked Andrew and the rest of his family. I don't think we should wish this on anyone one of the biggest dangers to any member of the royal family has always been the loan protester or stalker, the Late Queen at trooping Charles and the gunman in Australia and in the attempted kidnap. Andrew is expected to remain eighth in line to the throne for at least another year, despite government and palace support for considering his removal from the succession. According to The Times, and he moved to strip Andrew from the line of succession is likely to be delayed while police investigations continue. Both Downing Street and Buckingham Palace have indicated they will be open to action on Andrew's place in the succession, but the process would be complex. Any change would require an Act of Parliament and agreement from other Commonwealth realms Charles as Head of State, Canada, Australia and New Zealand as seat of indicated consent, but the issue could spark wider constitutional debates in other countries, including Jamaica, which is previously signal interest in moving away
