  "textContent": "\n\n\nSarah Ferguson feels \"incredibly betrayed\" by the Royal Family in the wake of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, a source has claimed.\n\nThe 66-year-old former Duchess of York has endured significant backlash over her previous connection to the convicted sex offender.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nBoth she and her ex-husband, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, appeared multiple times in recently released files.\n\nEmails also emerged showing Ms Ferguson had described Epstein as her \"dear spectacular and special friend\".\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nTRENDING\n\nStories\n\nVideos\n\nYour Say\n\nKing Charles subsequently removed the former couple from their residence at Royal Lodge.\n\nAccording to an insider, Ms Ferguson now feels deeply wounded and alone.\n\n\"Fergie's very bitter, she's angry and feels wronged by everyone in the family,\" the source said.\n\nMs Ferguson was not provided with an alternative royal residence upon leaving Royal Lodge.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nHer current living arrangements remain unclear.\n\nSarah Ferguson appeared to describe Epstein, a convicted sex offender, as her \"supreme friend\" and \"the brother I have always wished for” in emails released in the Epstein files.\n\nIn 2009, correspondence appeared to show Ferguson was eagerly keeping Epstein informed about potential book deals and branding opportunities.\n\nIn one particularly gushing communication, she appears to have told him \"Just marry me\" following a series of compliments.\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nSarah Ferguson’s daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, were entangled in their parents' association with the convicted sex offender, although there is no suggestion either princess was implicated in wrongdoing at any time.\n\nDocuments indicate that Epstein funded flights to the United States for Ferguson and both her daughters to visit him shortly after his release from prison in 2009.\n\nSarah Ferguson said in 2011 regarding her links to Jeffrey Epstein: \"I abhor paedophilia and any sexual abuse of children and know that this was a gigantic error of judgment on my behalf.\n\n\"I am just so contrite I cannot say. Whenever I can, I will repay the money and have nothing ever to do with Jeffrey Epstein ever again.\"\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n**Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter**",
