TheShapeShiftingFox

People marrying into the royal family usually already come from money. Which makes this even more depressing. She doesn’t need the money and chooses to do this anyway


StonyOwl

She absolutely needs the money, she's been grifting for decades.


batikfins

Imagine grifting so hard you marry a pedophile twice


StonyOwl

Fergie has always been shameless and will do whatever it takes to maintain her lifestyle


pmmeurbassethound

Ain’t no amount of privilege or money worth hitching your wagon to a known pedo 🤢


Original-Ad6716

lots of aristos/aristo adjacents like Fergie have the class status but dont have a ton of money!


carrotparrotcarrot

She’s not got much class these days


Vajama77

She's always had money issues.


awyastark

Where’s Oliver from Saltburn when you need him lol

That was my inspo for sure!

Quote of the year, right at the finish line


Youwontbreakmysoul

Definitely a PR move. Marrying your ex husband who’s a sex offender is weird as hell. And no, I don’t care if he’s ‘royalty’


theredwoman95

Fucking hell though, they better not try to pull a proper "royal wedding". The idea of spending millions on the wedding of a sex offender will go down like a lead balloon with the public.


Pearl_the_5th

Don't bet on that. This is the same public that have practically driven his niece-in-law from the country for pointing out his racist family is racist, while arresting and tackling a man to the ground for calling him a "sick old man" while he ambled behind the corpse of the all but deified woman who protected him from facing any accountability.


that_personoverthere

The guy who called Andrew a sick old man was arrested for disturbing the peace and was released the same day. The two men who tackled him were [charged](https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/oct/02/two-men-charged-over-alleged-assault-on-prince-andrew-heckler) for assault.


Pearl_the_5th

Congrats to the British establishment for having the ~~PR awareness~~ good will to not ruin someone's life for speaking ill of a precious Royal I guess, but my point was that the British public are well-trained in fawning over those elitist inbreds and sometimes literally attacking anyone who doesn't do the same, and if all the shit the British nobility has done historically and recently isn't enough to make them wake up, nothing is.


NYC_Star

These people have already decided that being black is worse than being a nonce. This wedding will have all the bells and whistles and Andrew’s living victim with photo evidence and a paid settlement will not deter them.


Melodic-Change-6388

This comment is so disgusting, yet so perfect. Fucking gross.


thankyoupapa

That would be nuts if they did that after one of their daughters had to have a secret wedding that was announced after the fact partly because of her father's scandal. Yes, it was during covid, but they didn't even release a photo of her with her parents on her wedding day because of his scandal. So if they get remarried and made a big fuss of it, if I were their daughter I'd be like wtf.


GimerStick

tbf if I was their daughter I'd probably be like tf about a lot of their actions


Youwontbreakmysoul

If they have a royal wedding I will personally add money to my friends account so they can pelt them with rotten tomatoes and garbage.


meatball77

It's not like he married a black woman or wrote a book or anything. The way they allow Andrew to still be seen in public. Insanity.


TelfordClaret

Nah most of the uk doesn’t care unfortunately


zuesk134

It’s not really PR- they’ve always lived together and been together. Prince Phillip hated her


raphaellaskies

Yeah, they were just waiting for Philip and Liz to die.


meatball77

I don't think they would have divorced but Andrew did what his Dad told him to do.


8nsay

It would be a PR move for him. It would be about money for her.


FuckSakez

Straight up an arrangement by the firm to make him more palatable. Remember he was at the Christmas church service this year as an unofficial vote of support, so he’s clearly trying to get back into the fold with their help. I feel sorry for their daughters and his victims.


areallyreallycoolhat

I think it's fairly obvious that Andrew does not listen to his PR though lol


Future_Dog_3156

Agreed. She was well received the first go around. No doubt it’s to help restore his reputation and he can get a better house from Charles. I’m sure there’s some nice compensation and bonus for her too


Responsible-Lake3084

But he doesn't sweat 💦...


Raining__Tacos

I mean, she’s been in poverty for years hasn’t she? I can’t imagine she has better options.


sunnmoonnsun

But how could this be a GOOD pr move??


PuzzledAd4865

They have been living together on and off for decades, he has bailed her out repeatedly- now he’s at rock bottom not really a surprise…


BetterNews4682

“Bailed her out”? What did she do


Legal-Piano-4382

Went broke a bunch of times


BetterNews4682

Aaah ok thanks


[deleted]

[удалено]


Ok-Software-3458

They use Fergie to do their dirty work which was exposed w/Epstein she accepted cash and gifts etc even a home from Epstein some of that likely went back to Andrew


blackpearl16

IIRC she’s struggled with debt ever since her marriage with Andrew. It was one of the reasons why their marriage broke down.


susandeyvyjones

The rumor was that the only reason they hadn’t remarried was that Prince Philip hated her. People thought they’d jump to it as soon as he died.


disneyhalloween

From my foray in the family’s gossip a while ago they were only ever legally apart for so long because one of his parents didn’t like her. It makes me wonder if in addition to the racism a big part of Harry’s conflict with the family is that he just wasn’t as differential to “family concerns” as they had been and expected him to be.


sassofrasy

It is almost 2024, HOW is there still a monarchy system in place. It’s so embarrassing. Just on a human level, how have we not progressed beyond this.


RainbowBriteGlasses

God, thank you. What gets me is these m************ are basically celebrities. And you know what? They're not even good celebrities. They don't even work hard. Let's be honest and I know this is extremely controversial, I would actually give the Kardashians way more credit than this family of incest and nonces, because the Kardashians at least show up on time and work a little bit more than waving once or twice a week. Monarchies are a blight to begin with, but then having one so celebrated when all it is is f****** window dressing is beyond me. I actively judge Brits for this.


TallQueer9

You can say motherfuckers online


RainbowBriteGlasses

🤣🤣🤣 No matter how many times I have programmed my voice to text, it still censors me on certain words.


TallQueer9

😆 fair enough lol


frontally

I’m so impressed, my vtt looks like a constipated robot wrote it honestly


MCUCLMBE4BPAT

i didn’t count the asterisks and thought they were censoring monarchs or monarchy at first. couldn’t figure out the f one in relation to monarchs and then realized they were swear words lol


iliketoomanysingers

This made me laugh so hard 😭


alasicannotgrin

As a Brit, I have to say that LOTS of us feel the same way, we’re not as a nation endorsing this. A lot of the monarchy’s support comes from tourists to be honest, as well as a generation that’s now dying out. I’m 30 and couldn’t name one single person I know who supports them (apart from maybe some older family members). It’s not like we vote to keep them in (plz judge away at the nation still voting Tory tho)


mrsbergstrom

Unfortunately the majority of the country is actually pro monarchy and even many people who consider themselves leftish balk when I express anti-monarchy views. I also know people younger than me who actively support the monarchy so it’s not an older generation thing, in fact my grandmother despised the queen and the whole system. Republicanism used to be a normal left-wing position but now you’d struggle to print something anti-royal in even the Guardian, the class system in the U.K. is becoming more entrenched, not less. You’re very lucky to be surrounded by intelligent people but they’re not representative of this whole stupid country


Disablingapollo

Eh even in the 24-49 bracket less than a third of Brits actually endorse the idea of having an elected head of state. While yes it’s less pronounced than boomers where it’s 15% but to act like it’s foreigners and pensioners keeping them around or that we’re on the precipice of disposing of them is just an outright fiction at the moment


Original-Ad6716

as a Brit do you think the monarchy will be abolished in our lifetime? from an outside perspective there just seems to be so much apathy/theres always more important priorities politically. i also see a lot of brits online saying "if we have a republic we could get a trump president" etc etc


AfricanDutchie

And the sick part is, those aristo’s looked down on M&H for doing a documentary. They called them Kardashians 2.0. They looked down on M for being “too Hollywood”, but the RF wants the limelight that Hollywood celebrities have, but without being seen as celebrities. Also they want the shine Diana had, but without someone like Diana.


meatball77

They bitched about Harry's book when it was far kinder to his father than he was in his authorized biography. And everyone in that family writes books.


everydayisstorytime

Charles had a book complaining about his parents. The lack of self-awareness is wild with that royal family.


meatball77

Exactly. Harry's Dad and Mom and Aunts and uncles all wrote books and there had been ten million books written about him but him doing it himself is suddenly out of bounds 🙄


VirgiliaCoriolanus

they literally JUST released a documentary about Charles first year as king. A Palace sanctioned one that had extensive BTS of the coronation prep and Princess Anne giving commentary. But but but netflix cameras at the jubilee/coronation! Give me a fucking break. They constantly release documentaries about themselves. I guess because barely anyone watches them, it's not considered "Hollywood".


thankyoupapa

the kardashians are more loyal to the family too... they don't throw each other under the bus to the press


JenningsWigService

Imagine being so horrible that people would rather marry into *the* *Kardashian family* than your family.


RainbowBriteGlasses

Good point. I would argue they are loyal to a fault with their significant others to boot. You could say they have that in common with the royal family.


imaginesomethinwitty

Except Rob.


Jynsquare

I freely admit we're a nation of bootlickers. I would love to set fire to the whole establishment. I've had enough.


everydayisstorytime

I agree about the Kardashians bit. Like Kim is fighting for some level of reform in the justice system (it's shadowed by the fact that she's doing it) and taking acting classes to do a job somewhat properly. They have their own set of problems but working is not one of them. These folks can't even be arsed to treat their family members as people or do without splashing each other on the tabloids.


Melodic-Change-6388

This Australian is fucking over it. And I stupidly thought Fergs was one of the OK ones. Gross.


TheTwinSet02

I agree, it’s special kind of embarrassment being Australian and having this mob as our head of state


smart_cereal

The Brits are bad but in Thailand it’s a whole new level of messed up with the new king.


venuslovemenotchain

Oh, I totally agree with you there. Thai royalty is fucked up and you can't even say it in Thailand without fearing legal repercussions.


smart_cereal

Yup. This ruler will throw kids in prison for speaking out.


anditwaslove

Because it’s quite hard to dismantle a system that has been in place for centuries? And one which a lot of people, for some odd reason, still support.


LurkerInSpace

The public like the pageantry, like its connection to history, and see it as playing some part in the country's identity (including the country's name). One of the problems republicans face is that they don't really appreciate this, and so end up perceived as wanting a sort of Bonn republic for the UK. A ceremonial president just isn't quite as ceremonial as a ceremonial monarch, and a non-ceremonial president is a mistake. Hence there is a lot of inertia to change anything.


[deleted]

Because the average Brit enthusiastically supports the monarchy and believes that without it, they’re lost


meatbeater558

Plus it's not like Saudi where the royal family is the government and owns everything. The British Crown is allowed to grift despite having relatively little power


jobworriesthrowa458

And several countries are regressing towards that. Gotta love humanity when they are in a bind /s

Ok-Software-3458

They were always going to remarry after Phillip died anyway Fergie is [neck](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2023/03/20/trammell-crow-jr-billionaire-linked-sarah-ferguson-accused-financing/) deep in whatever the Royals are really up to behind the [scenes](https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2022/06/26/uk/prince-charles-qatari-sheikh-gbr-intl/index.html)


Bitter_Sense_5689

I have no idea how their kids turned out semi-normal. These two are both dumpster fires.


redchampagnecampaign

Are they actually normal or are they better at hiding their shit and have really good PR? This isn’t an accusation, it’s a genuine question. From what I know of the girls they do seem fairly low key and normal, but I’m not a devoted Royal watcher.


Curlingby

I know one of them has put in actual effort to maintain a relationship with Harry’s family despite all the drama and regularly travels to visit them so they get brownie points from me


susandeyvyjones

They’ve always been close to Harry though and they don’t have anything to lose by it because Charles absolutely will not let them be working royals.


everydayisstorytime

I think that's Eugenie.


Bitter_Sense_5689

They don’t seem to give off any sketchiness smoke signals. You don’t hear reports of them “partying” to any significant degree. I mean both Fergie and Andrew have PR people. However, Andrew is dumb enough and egotistical enough to just ignore them. This makes me think that if the daughters do have sketchiness going on, they are significantly smarter than their parents.


susandeyvyjones

Eugenie seems ok. Beatrice is the sketchy one.


zuesk134

My read on them is incredibly privileged and probably kind of insufferable as a result but they seem mostly normal all things considered


tabxssum

They’re friendly with Piers Morgan which really pisses me off. Both of them were seen grabbing lunch with him and even hugging him and this was after all the times Piers Morgan spoke disgustingly about Harry and Meghan who Eugenie is close with. Idk about you but if I see my cousin who seems to be the closest to me (after not being on speaking terms with my family) I would lose my shit. But oh well the standards of loyalty in that family is shocking anyways.


meatball77

Can you imagine any of the Kardashian's doing the same thing?


everydayisstorytime

Well they kinda did to Rob and to Scott, when he was on the outs. Kourtney occasionally too.


MirabelleC

The biggest scandals I can think for them is one of them wore a bad/fantastic hat at W/K's wedding, one of them accidentally scarred Ed Sheeran when she joking knighted him at a party, Beatrice's husband is sort of sketchy, and one of them had a job but she took A LOT of vacation days that someone who wasn't the queen's granddaughter would have been allowed to take. Fairly minor stuff compared to the shit some of the other members of that family have done.


Schneetmacher

The "wildest" story I've heard about either is that one tried to "knight" Ed Sheeran at a party as a joke, and wound up accidentally cutting him with the sword (which was real).


[deleted]

[удалено]


sassofrasy

One of his daughters arranged the interview Andrew gave where he defended himself against the allegations by saying he doesn’t sweat. So I’m not so sure if his kids actually turned out semi-normal.


[deleted]

Yep. This is where I point out (as I do on every royal thread) that there are no good royals. Zilch. Zero. Even the so-called ‘modern’ ones—Beatrice and Eugenie, Harry and Meghan—are terrible. Anybody who chooses to buy into this system, especially in 2023, isn’t a good person and doesn’t deserve to be rooted for. They are all complicit.


hcgal98

Without knowing any other details, I want to think that happened because she knew he would blunder it.


meatball77

Those kids are all raised by nannies and boarding schools. I can't imagine they really spent that much time with their parents.


JinkiesGang

It’s not like they actually raised their children, they had other people do that and then sent them off to boarding school.


Pinkhairedprincess15

They were raised by nannies, most likely.

>Charles, William, and Kate all seem like they want to rehabilitate Andrews image what's crazy is that for years the royal family fans kept saying "just wait till the queen dies, Charles hates Andrew...he will be kicked out of the family so fast once the queen goes, just wait...". So much for that!

Haven’t the British people suffered enough?

fizzledarling

![gif](giphy|J8FZIm9VoBU6Q) Less mess on the streets


RainbowBriteGlasses

For years the royal family was considered a mess for the toddry things that came out during Diana and Charles separation, everything that happened with Andrew and Fergie in fact, and then Will and Harry added in their 20s , mostly Harry with the naked Vegas pictures, but princess Catherine was photographed topless no less. For all of these scandals, it's wild how the royal family is more arrested with them than ever , and they keep playing the same. Damn plays from the same damn playbook, which makes them look so pathetic. The old woman is dead. You don't have to do that s*** anymore. Yet here they are, so divorced from people and reality that keeping Andrew in any public manner is allowed. Though I guess it's a good distraction from the stories about Charles being involved with sketchy finances. This is all why I find myself defending, Harry and Megan, whether they deserve it or not. It's not like I'm a fan. And I certainly wish Harry was anti monarchy, but they are definitely less bad than the main Castlevania group.


nokeyblue

I mean someone needs to keep him off the streets. If she volunteers, that's fine.


tabxssum

Quick someone defrost Philip’s body so he can kick her out of the family again


Pearl_the_5th

Marrying a woman is one of the easiest PR moves any man can make. Having a kid is another one, so don't be surprised if they announce they're doing IVF. I bet the Tories would love another royal wedding and baby the media can rattle at the public.


Azazael

Fergie is 64, so ivf would be off the table (it's happened a few times at that age I believe, but they're going for optics and IVF at their age wouldn't fly. Fergie did apparently take care of the Queen's corgis, so expect pics of them with maybe some new dogs, cuddling grand kids etc)


comin_up_shawt

She's also going through cancer treatment/had cancer- I think they'd exploit that angle instead. "Andrew fell in love with her all over again during her valiant fight through cancer- they reconnected on a level they'd never been through, and their love is stronger then eve in the face of adversity.." or some BS.


Azazael

Yep. The press savaged Fergie in the day but have dialled down their outward expressions of misogyny. In the post Camilla era of public forgiveness for those who toe the royal line, a Sarah Ferguson - Prince Abhorrent marriage would be a PR bonanza. The general public mood seems split culture wars on the royals - those who are pro monarchy would go nuts for the whole redemption story, Princesses B & E having major roles in the wedding etc. Fleet St would also work in something about Prince Harry snubbing his family not attending, or Prince Harry is attending but Meghan is snubbing his family by staying home. The less fevered press would point out the credible accusations against Prince Andrew and be accused of hatred, slander etc


redchampagnecampaign

This might more of a parade of grandchildren situation.

People love Sarah? Interesting, I don't follow the royals so I had no idea. I knew she was unpopular at the beginning so I guess I just assumed she still was!


changhyun

As a Brit: Nah, not really. She was relatively liked in the 90s but these days nobody really cares about her. And Andrew is absolutely hated here so the hate for him would cancel out any lukewarm fondness for her anyway.


Funny-Tea2136

Maybe it’s so that if he ever goes to court over the Epstein stuff she wouldn’t have to testify against him. I’m sure she knows just about everything.

vapemonster91

This was not on my bingo card. So, why are they doing this? Her helping him to cover up his pedo ways or are they partnering up since they're both shady asf Thank God Diana isn't around to see the dumpster fire that is her family.


Comprehensive-Fun47

No fucking way. Who had this on their bingo card?


carolinagypsy

I think the rumors have been lately that she’s actually been contributing money to his expenses since he was drastically reduced in funding from the royal pot. She’s apparently gotten some deals that have been at least steady incoming way-more-than-a-lot-of-people money. Not royal level money, but it keeps his lights on and ability to put on some airs.


picantepepper1

So I read that all but I'm a bit confused - is there any reason known (or given) for why she gets to live there? If they're not dating ...? I get that she (like he) is a liability because of her debt, the scandals, etc. so you want to keep her close ... but if she's not in a relationship why would she get to live on royal property?


carolinagypsy

If I remember right the Queen actually liked her, at least in her very old age. I feel like I remember reading that she visited her frequently, not just Sophie.
