Sarah Ferguson's marriage to Prince Andrew ended in May 1996, but before this, the Duchess of York was gifted an extremely generous item from the late Queen. Despite breaking away from the Firm, Sarah remained close to her mother-in-law and, after the monarch's heartbreaking death in September 2022, the Duchess shared a poignant tribute to her 'second mother', reports the Mirror. In a heartfelt tribute to Queen Elizabeth, she wrote: "You were a wonderful friend, a mentor, a second mother to me and grandmother to my daughters who share so much of your courage and heart. You will always be loved and missed by our family and our nation."
