Sarah Ferguson Says Queen Elizabeth Encouraged Her to Be Herself


Sarah Ferguson said Queen Elizabeth II was one of the few royals who ‘saw her properly,’ saying the late monarch told her that ‘being yourself is enough’

She said that her father told her she was “a bore” and that she worried that she might come across as “too much.” Ferguson said the assurance from Queen Elizabeth, as well as her cancer diagnosis, helped to shake her self-limiting tendencies. She has commented several times on the cancer battles faced by both Princess Kate Middleton and King Charles II. Prince Charles and Princess Diana made headlines nearly three decades ago when they divorced, but they were hardly the first couple in the royal family to call it quits on their marriage.
