Finding Fergie: The Scandal Years, Pt. 1

Windsors & Losers

When Sarah "Fergie" Ferguson joined the British royal family, things seemed good — for a hot minute. But then, reality set in. Her Prince was away with a time-consuming job, her new official role came with a good degree of pressure, and dear Fergie ended up going toe-to-toe with the notoriously inflexible "Grey Men" of the palace. TL;DR our heroine plotted her exit from both her marriage and The Firm after not too many years, and she was aided in making her grand departure (some may say, forced exit) by two Texan men. The last years of her time as an official royal saw Fergie stumble into the first two of her many capital-S "Scandals." And, intriguingly, the Texans played central roles in these public debacles. In this fourth episode of Windsors & Losers's "Sarah Season," hosts Eva and Allie revisit the final years of Fergie's marriage and her simultaneous early nineties tabloid fiascos.
