Sarah Ferguson accuses Prince William of targeting York sisters

Sarah Ferguson is reportedly accusing Prince William of orchestrating a campaign to sideline Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie as part of his strategy to slim down the monarchy. Tensions have flared following a National Audit Office report confirming the sisters reside in royal properties rent-free, a revelation that has fueled public criticism of their status as non-working royals. Insiders suggest Ferguson views the Prince of Wales as the driving force behind this scrutiny, claiming he is unfairly using her daughters as scapegoats for the broader controversies surrounding the York family.

Despite the friction, the family maintained a veneer of normalcy at the weekend wedding of Peter Phillips to Harriet Sperling in the Cotswolds. William was observed sharing a public moment with Beatrice, kissing her on the cheek at the ceremony. For Ferguson, however, such gestures do little to mitigate what she describes as a barbaric effort to punish her children for their father Andrew’s legal troubles. While the sisters are reportedly urging their mother to avoid confrontation to protect their standing, Ferguson remains vocal about her frustration, even hinting that her upcoming memoir could serve as a platform to challenge the Prince’s influence over the institution.
