Sarah Ferguson Says The Royal Family 'Moves Together As A Unit' Amid Prince Andrew's Sexual Assault Scandal
Even though Prince Andrew is in hot water right now, his ex Sarah Ferguson has his back.
While speaking to Good Morning Britain on Tuesday, October 5, Ferguson noted Queen Elizabeth "is such an extraordinary, legendary, iconic monarch that leads by example ... at 95-years-old, [she] still carries on."
She added, "And, for me, we get on with it, and we move together as a unit."
This comes after Ferguson may have to answer questions about where Prince Andrew was in 2001. It's been claimed that Andrew was spotted partying with Virginia Roberts — who is suing Andrew for allegedly raping her when she was 17 years old — at a London nightclub at the time, but the royal said he took Princess Beatrice to a party at Pizza Express.
“They’re going to ask for a kitchen sink," New York federal prosecutor Bradley Simon said as to what Andrew can expect. “They’re going to seek every correspondence, phone logs, emails, diaries. They're going to go after people who were with him."
In the documents, which were obtained by The Royal Observer, Roberts claims that the royal "sexually abused Plaintiff in Epstein’s New York mansion in this District."
"On another occasion, Prince Andrew sexually abused Plaintiff on Epstein’s private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands, Little St. James," the documents state. "During each of the aforementioned incidents, Plaintiff was compelled by express or implied threats by Epstein, Maxwell, and/or Prince Andrew to engage in sexual acts with Prince Andrew, and feared death or physical injury to herself or another and other repercussions for disobeying Epstein, Maxwell, and Prince Andrew due to their powerful connections, wealth, and authority."
This is hardly the first time Ferguson has stuck by her ex's side. "Whatever challenges he has, I will stand firm to the co-parenters that we are together ... I believe that he's a kind, good man, and he's been a fabulous father to the girls," the mom-of-two previously said.
