Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, the glamorous duo of royal lineage, have wowed us once again with their unexpected relationship dynamic. After their royal wedding in 1986, most thought their love story would resemble a fairytale, but it took a few twists with a split in 1992 and a formal divorce in 1996. Instead of vanishing into the pages of history, they’ve managed to remain close friends, dining at Royal Lodge and even cohabiting—talk about redefining “besties!”
Their friendship became even more essential amidst the swirl of scandal surrounding Prince Andrew’s ties to Jeffrey Epstein, giving us the drama we never knew we needed. Ferguson has called Andrew her“soulmate,”making it a point to emphasize their commitment to co-parenting their daughters, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie. Who’d have guessed that a royal romance with such a rocky past would turn into a reality of friendship and family? If they can thrive post-divorce, what does that mean for relationship norms? Could this be the ultimate unconventional love story we never saw coming?
