Fergie's Friendship Lost: Epstein Ties Cost Duchess Dear

0:00On May 2nd, Sarah Ferguson, once the Duchess of York, has lost one of her closest unlikely friends over her ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Tonya Sargerson, a 64-year-old mom from a whole council estate, ended their 18-year bond after Epstein court files dropped last December. She now says Fergie should never return to royal circles, or public life. It all started back in 2008, when Fergie filmed the documentary called The Duchess In Hole. She spent days in Tonya's home, pushing healthy eating on a tight 80-pound weekly budget for the family of seven. Despite the class divide, they stayed in touch with cards, texts, and meetups for nearly two decades. Tonya feels deeply betrayed, especially since her young kids were around Fergie during that time. She told friends she'd never have let her in the house knowing about the Epstein connection. The family now sees it as a huge breach of trust, putting them just one step from a convicted predator.

He's done for good, leaving this friendship and the dust for everyone involved.
