Sources declare she’s insisting on being rehoused on Crown Property land – reportedly setting her sights on Adelaide Cottage, the four-bedroom dwelling at present occupied by the Prince and Princess of Wales.
“Sarah genuinely believes she’s entitled to dwell out her days in a royal residence,” stated an insider. “She’s by no means stopped measuring herself towards Diana. In her thoughts, she acquired a uncooked deal within the divorce and has spent years feeling punished for not being the one the general public adored.”
Ferguson and Andrew have lived collectively at Royal Lodge since 2008, regardless of divorcing in 1996. However beneath new preparations, Andrew – who has agreed to vacate the property amid rising backlash over his reported “peppercorn lease” deal – is anticipated to maneuver into Frogmore Cottage, the Sussexes’ former dwelling. Ferguson, in the meantime, is lobbying to be granted Adelaide Cottage as soon as Prince William and Princess Kate relocate to the bigger Forest Lodge close by.
Insiders say Fergie views the transfer as a technique to “lastly stand on her personal two ft” after years of being tied to her ex-husband’s destiny.
However palace sources insist such a requirement has not been effectively obtained by King Charles.
“The King’s dealing with mounting stress to show he is critical about transparency,” stated one courtier.
“Sarah asking for one more grace-and-favor dwelling proper now – when spending is beneath the microscope and Andrew’s habits is being debated in Parliament – is extremely badly timed.”
