Sarah Ferguson doesn't expect invite to King Charles' Coronation - and has other plans

The Duchess of York isn't expecting an invite to King Charles' Coronation next month.

King Charles will formally be recognised as monarch next month alongside his wife Queen Consort Camilla, with plans already underway for the global event. Invites are being sent out today for the 2000 guests that will be in attendance at the ceremony.

However, Sarah Ferguson - who shares daughters Princess Eugenie and Princess Beatrice with Prince Andrew - has revealed she has other plans for the big day, and she isn't sure she will be invited to attend the ceremony in person.

As the topic of the Coronation came up on Loose Women, the panellists assumed she'd be attending.

Asked about her plans by ITV's Loose Women, she revealed she may not be invited because now she has split from Prince Andrew, she wouldn't expect to necessarily be asked to come along and instead has other plans to mark the day.

She revealed she wanted to take the late Queen's corgis with her to a nearby nursing home and planned to celebrate with them, putting bunting up and turning it into a big party for them all to mark the King's Coronation.

Fergie also spoke of her support for the King and Queen Consort Camilla, who will be dropping the Consort part of her title when the Coronation takes place, something which Sarah is glad to see happen.

"I have known both the King and the Queen Consort since I was a child," she told OK! magazine, "I think if you look at the King's track record in areas like the environment, where he was decades ahead of his time, and the Prince's Trust, it's clear what an extraordinary man he is and how fortunate we are to have him on the throne."

She added: "I also admire the way the Queen Consort has worked tirelessly in areas like literacy and domestic violence."

Fergie now looks after the corgis full time following Queen Elizabeth II's passing.

"I really love when I'm with them actually, I really think about HM and I just think about the value system she supported in this country and how the nation mourns her," she said of the pets, "But yet how exciting we move on to a new monarch and the Coronation, and I think so important for the whole country to unite and uphold the value system that for 72 years the monarch gave us all."
