Is Sarah Ferguson Really Living With Prince Andrew Again?
From the outside, it might seem like Sarah Ferguson has lived a fairytale life. She married into the royal family, has raised two princesses with her ex-husband Prince Andrew, and while she's had her personal challenges and her difficulties with the press, she's still got enough clout to keep her name in the headlines. While promoting her new book, "Her Heart For A Compass" the Duchess of York told the Financial Times that she knows just how lucky she's been to have afforded the life she's enjoyed. "If I hadn't married a prince, I would be doing exactly what I'm doing now . .. . It's this feeling. It makes me happy," she told the publication.

And while Fergie admitted that she and Andrew don't have breakfast together, she explained why she defends her ex and still remains by his side. She said that they support each other "like pillars of strength with the honor and integrity of truth," while also adding that Andrew stood by her side during her embarrassing 2010 News of the World sting, when she was caught offering access to him in return of a large payment.
