The $30 million question: why Fergie skipped her niece's weding

Former Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson's absence from her niece's wedding at Dummer Down Farm in Hampshire has deepened speculation about her reclusive state following the Epstein Files release. The mystery surrounding Sarah Ferguson's reecnt absence from a significant family event has intensified.

A friend commented that Sarah would have been 'surrounded by love' had she appeared and could have maintained a low profile without issue. Heidi, the daughter of Sarah's sister Jane Ferguson, married art consultant Ben Collinson at All Saints Church in Dummer. The celebration followed their 2023 engagement, a moment Sarah had previously celebrated, calling Heidi her 'golden niece' and expressing devotion to both her and Ben.

The weddding date coincidentally clashed with the marriage of Peter Phillips, the son of Princess Anne, to Harriet Sperling. Sarah's daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, opted to attend Peter's wedding instead, reflecting their familial ties on both sides.

At that time, he admitted to The Mail on Sunday that he had accumulated credit card debt by using the card for day-to-day expenses, resulting in late-payment fees after he failed to meet minimum payments.

Photographs from that period showed him with rigidly gelled hair and glasses.
