Duchess of York reflects on her daughters’ challenges as royal dynamics
shift.
Sarah Ferguson has revealed her concerns for her daughters, Princess Beatrice
and Princess Eugenie, following reports that Princess Anne has made a
significant request to King Charles regarding her own children.
In an interview with The Times, the Duchess of York shared her worries about
the well-being of her daughters, even as adults. “You worry about them all the
time. I still do now, when they’re adults,” Sarah said, adding, “I think young
people today have it harder than ever. Social media is a cesspit and it’s very
frightening what young people are exposed to.”
Sarah’s comments come amid claims from Radar Online that Princess Anne has
urged King Charles to grant royal titles to her children, Zara Tindall and
Peter Phillips. The move, if true, could have significant implications for the
roles and recognition of other non-working royals, including Beatrice and
Eugenie.
The Duchess also spoke about her commitment to mental health awareness,
recalling the tragic loss of a loved one to suicide and emphasising the
importance of supporting young people through the pressures they face.
As the royal family adjusts to the new dynamics under King Charles’s reign,
Sarah’s concerns highlight the challenges faced by younger generations in
navigating both public and private life.
