Sarah Ferguson, Prince Andrew 'still waiting' for Christmas invitation

The Duchess of York married Prince Andrew at Westminster Abbey in 1986

 Despite the split Sarah and Andrew have stayed close, continuing to live togethe


Sarah Ferguson’s place in the royal family seems uncertain as a pivotal decision awaits.

The Duchess of York married Prince Andrew in 1986 at Westminster Abbey, but they divorced ten years later.

Despite the split in 1996, Sarah, 65, and Andrew, 64, have stayed close, continuing to live together at Royal Lodge in Windsor.

Known affectionately as "Fergie," Sarah re-entered the royal circle last year when she joined Prince Andrew and their daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, at Sandringham for Christmas.

This gathering marked her first public celebration with the Royal Family during the holiday season since 1991.

According to the Daily Beast, however, both Andrew and Sarah are still waiting for an invitation to this year’s Christmas festivities in Norfolk. 

"Usually, everyone would know what bits they are invited to by now. This year, it’s just wait and see,” a friend of Prince Andrew’s revealed.

Princess Beatrice, 36, and Princess Eugenie, 34, traditionally attend the Christmas celebrations at Sandringham each year.

Beatrice, who is expecting her second child with husband Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, welcomed their first daughter, Sienna Elizabeth, in 2021.

Edoardo also has an eight-year-old son, Wolfie, from a previous relationship, who is expected to join the royal walkabout this Christmas as he did last year.

Eugenie, along with her husband, Jack Brooksbank, are also expected to join the celebration with their two sons, three-year-old August and one-year-old Ernest.
