A Convoluted Timeline of Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson’s Bizarre Romance
Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York have been divorced since 1996, however, they are still very much a couple. Take a look back at their on-again, off-again romance.
2. The setup
Ferguson was very close friends with the late Princess Diana. The two women were childhood friends and reconnected later in life just as the princess was getting engaged to Prince Charles. In 1985, Princess Diana who had been married to Prince Charles for four years at that point asked Queen Elizabeth II to extend an invitation to Fergie to one of her “dine and sleep” events at Windsor Castle during Ascot week.
The cheeky princess thought it was a good idea to make sure that her friend and brother-in-law, Prince Andrew, were seated across from one another. Sparks flew immediately between the pair at that fateful dinner.
