Sarah Ferguson attends Queen's funeral after paying tribute to her 'mother-in-law and friend'

Among the mourners pictured arriving at Westminster Abbey for the Queen's state funeral was Sarah Ferguson. She joined heads of state, politicians and other members of the royal family for the funeral service.

Sarah Ferguson married the Queen’s second eldest son Prince Andrew in 1986 but the couple, then titled the Duke and Duchess of York, split up in 1992 although they have remained friends. It was a year the Queen called her “Annus Horribilis” as it also saw the break-up of the Prince and Princess of Wales’s marriage and a serious fire at Windsor Castle.

Last week, Sarah said the Queen was “the most incredible mother-in-law and friend” to her and she would miss her “more than words can express”. In her tribute, she remembered the “generosity” the Queen had shown her following the end of her marriage.
