I don't think she was involved in the worst of the things Epstein is accused of like her ex-husband. But she absolutely was in his pocket for money after he was a convicted sexual abuser and paid no mind to the evil it was known he had done. She knew what he had done and still hit him up multiple times as a "friend." Epstein didn't just care about what was happening in that moment. He wanted to keep the ultra privileged in his orbit for future favors or blackmail. Fergie absolutely fit that bill.

Did u read her email telling Epstein that her daughter was back after a shagging weekend?

Every time I read about Andrew and Ferguson I think "they're swingers"

Every time I think of the accusations against her ex husband and those against the man she supposedly had a crush on, I can't help but see the correlation. There's very few reasons why someone would be into those men. I don't think it's simply money and power, because there are non-pedos out there too. So, swingers... idk, maybe. But with what kind of partners?

It's pretty common in high society (well, more common than normal people) It's partly a factor that many marriages, especially historically, were political and it was commonly accepted to have a discrete mistress, not only for the men. Getting caught was obviously shameful, but as most people were doing it it was only getting caught by prudes or lower class that was the real shame of it all. Whilst I have no idea how political their marriage was, social attitudes are partly passed down by older generations, so I'm sure it continues. See also Charles for this - Diana was his wife (and outside the aristo bubble) but Camila was always his mistress and it was an open secret

> See also Charles for this - Diana was his wife (and outside the aristo bubble) but Camila was always his mistress and it was an open secret Charles/Camilla isn't really the same thing; Camilla is the woman Charles always wanted to marry, and she was also much older than Diana. Most mistresses would be younger, more conventionally attractive women, and they'd never be marriage material even if the wife was no longer in the picture. And Diana was just as guilty of sleeping around as Charles was, which is also something worth remembering.

Common misconception about royal mistresses. Yes, some were just hotties, but they were often the one the king/queen genuinely loved rather than the political marriage they had to have

That’s what really gets me: putting their daughters at risk of being sucked into that spiral. Thank God they’ve avoided it. What parent offers up their own children??

The rich, who very infrequently feel as attached to their kin as they do their money.

I hate seeing her referred to as Fergie. Every time I see my mind says "that's not very fergalicious" and then I remember it's not the same fergie

Gay_Creuset Mar 26, 2026 +146
She was Fergie before Fergie was Fergie, unfortunately

AudibleNod Mar 26, 2026 +44
She should be stripped of her Fergie-dom as well. If we're in a perk and title stripping mood.

fresh-dork Mar 27, 2026 +12
the only fergie should be up in the gym, just a workin' on her fitness

vuevey Mar 26, 2026 +14
Well, you are right - she is definitely not fergalicious.

Glad I read this comment because I’m not familiar with Sarah Ferguson and I was a second away from looking it up

ObviousAnswerGuy Mar 27, 2026 +10
Sarah Ferguson was the OG "Fergie". That's why Fergie's album was, called "The Duchess", Sarah was "The Dutchess of York"

DAciv Mar 26, 2026 +12
i think she was involved in much debauchery, but beyond that, being personally aware of, but doing nothing about child molestation is frankly the same as doing it

winterbird Mar 26, 2026 +10
I think that we need to stop giving crappy women a pass and minimizing their involvement. I hope there's a proper investigation into it at some point. But it can't be said without any proof that she was just innocently there because of money. Or that she was involved. But let's not preemptively just assume that women are clean of the ill deeds.

Apprehensive_Rub3897 Mar 27, 2026 +3
Yet, and maybe she was *involved in the worst of the things Epstein is accused of like her ex-husband.* I'd need to see evidence to the contrary at this point.

"accountable" I dont see any prison sentences yet, but yeah the bare minimum has been done.

cloud1445 Mar 26, 2026 +21
Actually the maximum has been done to date. You can't send people to jail without due process. And due process is being done as we speak. How do you think this all works? You send people straight to jail on public opinion?

In the USA, right now lots of people are being ruined, deported, and killed without due process. Worse, these grifting pedos are being protected by the "due process." I'm f****** sick of it

We know that all this information has been available to intelligence agencies and higher government levels for decades already so people making excuses for why no one is in jail yet are operating ion bad faith.

notrevealingrealname Mar 27, 2026
Just because something is available to intelligence agencies doesn’t mean it’s usable evidence in a court of law.

What does that mean anyway? If someone had the freedom of York, does that mean that they can just wander into peoples homes if they want to?

tetoffens Mar 26, 2026 +99
It's like getting the "key to the city." No matter how determined and widespread your effort is, it won't unlock any physical doors, just the social ones of having other privileged people like you.

Sonifri Mar 26, 2026 +33
It would be kind of funny if it gave small privileges like not having to pay for parking meters.

Advice2Anyone Mar 26, 2026 +14
or was the key to the meter entitling you to as much change as you want

curried_avenger Mar 26, 2026 +12
In the context of her constantly hitting up people for money, this makes for one hell of a mental image of her working her way down the street frantically emptying parking meters into her purse.

EclecticDreck Mar 26, 2026 +15
That's why my key to the city is the superior version. Sure, you might look at it say that it's clearly a wrecking bar that has been spray painted gold by am amateur. And you'd be right. But it *also* unlocks many doors, provided that you're rather fuzzy about what the world "unlock" means. Better still, it is open to all. All you have to do is provide some random service to me when I least expect it and also remember that the program exists and you can join a very select club of very confused people who sheepishly accepted a heavy length of steel from a near stranger because it all happened too quickly to do anything else.

from the article >The "freedom of the city" honour is a ceremonial role, awarded to notable figures. It does not grant any "privileges" in the city, according to York council's website.

So it’s posh shaming.

At one time it would have included the right to wear a sword in city limits. Should have kept that.

No, because the freedom of York doesn't seem to be a bribe.

It means they can publicly punish her without actually punishing her.  The rich never get punished.

"We don't expect the recipients of York's highest honour to be saints. We simply do not want them to be best friends of convicted paedophiles." makes sense.

Why do you think? I’m not super read in on her involvement and what her role was.

DrunkOnRedCordial Mar 27, 2026 +1
It was public knowledge that Epstein had a history of child sex offences, so if the general public knew, his friends should have known. He spent time in prison during their friendship. A lot of people would have stopped to rethink the friendship, especially if you had daughters, but for Fergie, that was just a temporary inconvenience where he wasn't available to lend her money.

How the hell did she get that awarded in the first place? She's a Z list royal who's never been popular in the UK.

Being married to the person who was the Duke of that same city at the time probably helped. > The couple were jointly awarded the status in 1987 following their wedding.

For trying to pimp out her own daughters?

From her mails, she was basically in love with Epstein, begging him to be his new Ghislaine Maxwell.

She also called him the brother she never had, even though she had/has a brother.

Supposed to be in the WTC on 9/11 but her cabbie got "lost" between LaGuardia and the twin towers. Ghislane's good friend.

Ya knowwwww. Every other country is at least doing SOMETHING about the epstien files. Tf are we doing over here in The US? Arguing with each other about how bad it is to gum around with children. Ridiculous
