Watch: Sarah Ferguson’s Rep Clarifies Rumor She Cloned Queen Elizabeth II’s Corgis
Sarah Ferguson is not planning to spill the royal beans.
Following rumors the former Duchess of York was nearing a seven-figure book deal for a memoir detailing the controversies she experienced in recent years, Ferguson has emphasized that is not the case.
“She is not writing a personal memoir,” a spokesperson for Ferguson told People in a Sept. 25 statement, adding there was “no discussions” of a supposed book deal.
E! News has reached out to Ferguson’s reps for additional comment but has not heard back.
Though she isn’t in the market for a new memoir, Ferguson is no stranger to the literary world, having written several children’s books, historical novels and even memoirs released in 1996 and 2012.
Still, the 66-year-old has been keeping a low profile in the past year as the scrutiny into her ex-husband AndrewMountbatten-Windsor’s association with late sex offender Jeffrey Epsteinled to his brother King Charles III formally stripping him of his titles and honors, including the use of Prince, “His Royal Highness,” Duke of York and more in late 2025.
And though Ferguson and Andrew finalized their divorce in 1996, the former Duchess had retained the royal title—given to her by Queen Elizabeth II upon her 1986 wedding to the monarch’s second son—in some areas of her public life.
However, after Andrew’s more formal separation from the royal family, Ferguson—popularly known as Fergie—also dropped Duchess, removing the mention from her own social media accounts, changing her X username from @SarahTheDuchess to @sarahMFergie15.
Meanwhile, her and Andrew’s daughtersPrincess Beatrice, 38, andPrincess Eugenie, 36, retained their royal titles.

In addition to no longer using their titles, both Ferguson and Andrew moved out of the Royal Lodge, the 30-room mansion in Windsor Great Park where Andrew had been living since 2004—and shared with his ex-wife since 2008.
And despite their divorce, Ferguson has remained steadfast of her ex-husband throughout his public controversies.
“I won’t let him down,” she told the Sunday Times in 2024. “He supports me as much as I support him. He’s supported me through thick and thin, not just marriage or divorce. We agree on the three Cs—communication, compromise, compassion.”
The two had also maintained a close friendship, with Ferguson tellingPeople in 2021, “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.”
