Sarah Ferguson reportedly faced new scrutiny from her family after a report claimed Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank were resisting any move that would bring the former duchess into their home. According to a new report, the issue was not a family split but a practical line regarding privacy, children, and added pressure.
The report tied that tension to a broader effort to maintain stability in daily life. It also suggested that the couple wanted to protect Brooksbank’s business path and avoid further public attention on their household.
Source claims Princess Eugenie and her husband are not eager to have her mom live with them
Sarah Ferguson was at the center of a new claim about Princess Eugenie’s home life, with the Daily Mail reporting that Eugenie and her husband did not want the duchess living with them, even temporarily.
One source said Brooksbank’s “code of honour” meant he would not “completely desert” Ferguson or ex-Prince Andrew. However, the same source added that he would not “step into the line of fire himself.” Instead, his “first loyalty” was to Eugenie and their two young sons.
That point shaped the report’s main claim. A second source said Eugenie and Brooksbank were “resisting any suggestion” that her mother should move in. The reason, the source claimed, was simple. “Sarah is difficult to live with,” they said, and the couple did not want “the responsibility of looking after her at the moment.”
At the same time, the report stressed they were still concerned about her welfare. They reportedly did not want her “living with them, even temporarily.” So, the issue was framed less as rejection and more as a boundary.
Meanwhile, the report said Brooksbank had other reasons to stay cautious. Friends described the businessman as someone who had “worked very hard” to build his own career. They also said he had “not tried to cash in on his royal connections.” That mattered now because he was reportedly focused on keeping his head down.
The Daily Mail noted that he owned AEB Consultants Ltd and that the company had seen a sharp rise in profits in 2022. In that context, the source claimed he wanted to protect his family life first. Eugenie and Brooksbank, who met in Verbier in 2010 and married in Windsor in 2018, now appeared focused on keeping their household as steady and private as possible.
