A Royal Rebel: A Look At Sarah Ferguson, Duchess Of York’s Life
Sarah Ferguson, Duchess Of York might be one of the most controversial royals of all time. Take an inside look at her audacious life.
2. A major life change
In 1975 when the duchess was 16 years old, her parents divorced and her mother remarried an Argentinian man named Hector Barrantes. Ferguson’s mom jumped up and moved to South America leaving her daughters behind in England at her father’s estate, Dummer Down Farm. In 1976, Major Ferguson married Susan Deptford, and the couple went on to have three more children, Andrew, Alice, and Elizabeth.
Perhaps the duchess is such a fearsome mother to her daughters because she never wants them to feel as if they don’t matter or that she values something more than them.
