Despite divorcing nearly three decades ago, Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson share a stronger connection than most married couples. Their bond has evolved from marriage to a solid friendship rooted in mutual support and understanding. Time and again rumours have emerged of the two getting remarried, but nothing of the sort has ever happened.

Earlier this year, Sarah also ruled out remarriage with Andrew. However, the Duchess revealed she could marry Andrew ‘all over again’ in a recent interview with Sunday Times.
Sarah Ferguson reveals she could remarry Prince Andrew ‘all over again’
In a candid interview with the Sunday Times, Sarah reflected on her enduring relationship with Prince Andrew. Recalling how the two were in love, Sarah said:
I was totally and utterly in love with Andrew. I would do it all over again, 100 per cent. He’s the best, a great man with a great heart, and kind.
Despite their 1996 divorce, the two offer each other consistent support through life’s ups and downs, reports The Independent. She added:
Our wedding was the best day of my life. But I gave up my anonymity that day. I was able to because love conquers all. It’s still with us today. I won’t let him down.
Describing their dynamic, the Duchess explained their commitment to the ‘three Cs—communication, compromise, and compassion.’ Even Ferguson’s sister, Jane Luedecke, praised the pair, calling them ‘the best divorced couple I know.’
Sarah ‘instrumental’ in Andrew’s Christmas decision
Sarah and Andrew’s close relationship extends beyond just the two of them. It seems King Charles and Queen Camilla also depend on her when it comes to the controversial Prince Andrew, as he ‘listens to her,’ reports Marie Claire.
Amid fresh controversies surrounding the disgraced Duke—his alleged ties to Chinese businessman Yang Tengbo—it has been alleged that Sarah played a key role in helping him decide to skip the Royal Family’s public Christmas Day gathering at Sandringham.
Moreover, there are rumours that Charles and Camilla relied on Ferguson’s ability to ‘talk sense’ into Andrew, persuading him to avoid the Sandringham celebrations. MailOnline reported:
It is understood that the King and Queen were quietly hoping that the Duchess of York might come to their rescue and ‘talk some sense’ into her ex-husband, as one of the few people to still have his ear.
Royal expert Ingrid Seward also believes it was Sarah’s ‘hand’ in his decision. Not just Andrew, Sarah is also going to stay away from the Christmas celebration. Their daughters— Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie— are also going to spend Christmas with their in-laws for the first time since their marriage.
While Andrew will skip Sandringham’s festivities, he may still attend the Royal Family’s annual Christmas lunch on December 19 at Buckingham Palace since it will only be family members.
