Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the ex-Prince, and Sarah Ferguson are reportedly viewing their daughter’s pregnancy as a “rare opportunity” to find their way back into the royal circle. Ferguson and Windsor were asked to leave Royal Lodge last year after their names came up in a high-profile scandal. After that, their involvement in royal functions became much more limited, as they were reportedly barred from many of them. Amid this, they are said to see a possible chance for renewed connection with the monarchy, as their daughter, Princess Eugenie, is expecting her third child.
For ex-Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, daughter’s pregnancy is more than just ‘family milestone’, claims source
Ex-Prince Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson are reportedly beaming with happiness over news of their daughter’s pregnancy. Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank are expecting their third child. While the royal family is celebrating the news, Andrew and Ferguson allegedly see this as a “rare opportunity” to reconnect with the royal world.
A source told Radar Online, “Andrew and Sarah are looking at Eugenie’s pregnancy as far more than simply another happy family milestone. They see it as a rare opportunity to slowly reintegrate themselves into the wider royal fold through private family occasions, christenings, birthday celebrations, and gatherings centered around the children.”
According to the source, they are said to believe that a “warmer and more emotionally sympathetic narrative” around them could emerge with the arrival of their grandchild. The insider continued, “There is a belief between them that public affection for royal babies and young children naturally softens attitudes and could be their ticket back into the royal fold. They are quietly hoping that increased family contact could eventually help normalize their presence around senior royals again.”
The insider further added that Ferguson reportedly feels focusing on family and motherhood could help present a softer image of the Yorks.
However, another insider said that the couple is “delusional.” The tipster shared that everyone is happy for Eugenie. However, the chances of this leading the royal family to place their trust in Andrew are negligible.
