In the aftermath of the sex scandal in the kingdom, the Duchess of York, Sarah Ferguson, reacted by saying that her ex-husband, Prince Andrew, is the "best man" she knows and insisted he claims he has had sex with abused teenagers. by pedophile Jeffrey Epstein are "all a nonsense."
In an interview with Vogue Arabia, I appeared to refute Virginia Giuffre's claims that Epstein had forced her to have sex with Andrew.
Sarah Ferguson, who split with the prince in 1996 and has two daughters, Princess Beatrice and Eugenie, told Vogue Arabia: "The last six months have been difficult for my daughters and me. It was hard to see that wonderful man go through so much pain. "
Offending. Following her divorce from Prince Andrew, Ferguson was allowed to retain the title of Duchess of York.
"He's the best man I know," he added. "All he has done for Britain is extraordinary and all this is pointless."
Virginia Giuffre , one of the women accused of Epstein, claims she was forced to have sex with the prince in 2001, when she was 17.
Palace has denied the allegations . However the prince's terrifying interview with the BBC's Emily Maitlis, in which she expressed no sympathy for the victims of his former boyfriend convicted of child abuse and trafficking , was enough to force him to step down from his duties in the kingdom and public life.
The Duchess of York's interview in Vogue Arabia is thought to have taken place before her ex-husband retired from public life.
