Sarah Ferguson concerned about daughters’ place in royal family

Sarah Ferguson is concerned about the level of support her daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, have received from other members of the royal family, according to a report by British magazine Closer.

Sarah Ferguson is concerned about the level of support her daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, have received from other members of the royal family, according to a report by British magazine Closer.

An unnamed source quoted by the magazine said Ferguson was particularly unhappy with the way Prince William had treated the sisters. The claims have not been independently verified.

“Sarah’s disgusted by how little support the girls have had from the family, especially William,” the source was quoted as saying.

The source said Ferguson had encouraged her daughters to take a more assertive approach rather than wait to be included in royal family activities.

“She keeps telling them they can’t just sit around waiting for someone to call or include them, they need to stand up for themselves and stop acting as though they have to apologise for being there,” the source said.

According to the report, Ferguson was not urging her daughters to confront other members of the family but believed they should stand their ground.

“They’re the Queen’s granddaughters and they have every reason to be included, at least as far as Sarah is concerned,” the source added.

The source also claimed that Beatrice and Eugenie were preparing for futures outside the working royal family, although neither princess has publicly confirmed such plans.

The report said Beatrice had sought professional help with her public image and that Eugenie was considering doing the same.
