Sarah Ferguson is reportedly weighing a memoir that palace insiders fear could deepen the monarchy's troubles, with OK! reporting that King Charles and Prince William are considering legal options to stop any especially damaging claims from reaching print. The report, published on 21 March, centres on the former Duchess of York and her ex husband, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, as royal anxiety is said to be hardening into contingency planning.
This latest royal flare up comes amid continuing controversy around Andrew, who is under investigation on suspicion of misconduct in public office, has not been charged and denies wrongdoing. Ferguson, 66, has meanwhile spent recent months largely outside the UK, the magazine says, while quietly exploring a potentially lucrative publishing deal that would let her tell her version of years of scandal and family tension.
