Royal news: What did Sarah Ferguson say?
But according to Sarah, being part of the Royal Family wasn’t without its struggles.
In a new interview with Hello!, the mum-of-two revealed how her life “changed” after wedding the Queen’s son.
The 61-year-old shared: “I got married to the most wonderful man – it was happiest day of my life, I adored getting married, and it was such a love story and he’s such a good man. But then in about September 1988, it started to change.
For a period of time, I had no idea who I was
“‘Bad Fergie’ sold a lot of papers, but the worst thing about that was I believed every word of it. So every time somebody said something nasty, I believed it, because I was so sensitive and insecure and so I couldn’t come to terms with who this person was.”
The former royal, who is set to release a new book, admitted she seeks therapy after years of enduring tabloid abuse.
She added: “I did have and still have mental health issues, which I work at literally every day, I really do, and I have been in therapy for 24 years.”
