Sarah Ferguson spoke of the importance of supporting one another at the Cannes Film Festival last week – one royal expert claims it’s a subtle signal to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
Sarah – who was previously married to Prince Andrew – said that “forgiveness” is the most important part of maintaining family relationships.
In what has been dubbed a clear message to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle amid their ongoing royal feud, the 64-year-old said: “I think family unity is key… I think the key to life is that we all support each other.
“And also forgiveness is a great thing. I think forgiveness of yourself and forgiveness of others.”

Sarah – who is the mother of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie – has recently undergone treatment for both breast and skin cancer in the past year.
Speaking to The Mirror, royal expert Tom Quinn said that Sarah’s “forgiveness” comment was a “clear reference” amid the ongoing feud.
He told the publication: “[It was a] clear reference to Meghan and Harry’s ongoing feud with Prince William and King Charles.
“But the Duchess [of York] has her own well-publicised family difficulties to deal with – she has never stopped trying to persuade the senior royals to rehabilitate her former husband Prince Andrew and when she talked about unity and the need for forgiveness, she no doubt also had her husband in mind.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made the decision to step down as senior working royals at the start of 2020 and now reside in California with their children.
