You couldn’t make it up. Just days before new royal drama The Lady’s UK release date, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested on suspicion of misconduct in a public office. He’s subsequently been released under investigation and has always consistently and vehemently denied allegations of wrongdoing.
No-one could've predicted the turn of events that would precede the show airing, though it has Andrew’s ex-wife Sarah Ferguson (played by Natalie Dormer) as one of its two main characters. The other is Fergie’s former dresser, Jane Andrews (Mia McKenna-Bruce), who the four-part show focuses on.
