Here's more entertainment and celebrity news for March 19th. Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, is facing the possible loss of her freedom of the city of York title. The honor was given to her back in 1987, shortly after her wedding to Prince Andrew. Now, city counselors in York are set to vote on revoking it at a special meeting. This comes after a similar move against Andrew in 2022 when he lost the same title amid scandals. The council agenda spells out the plan clearly, using a section of the local government act of 1972 to pull the status. York's labor council leader, Claire Douglas, has called it deplorable for people linked to controversy to hold these honors. The title carries big symbolic value, shared by figures like Winston Churchill, Judy Dench, and the Duke of Wellington. No one from Ferguson's team is commented on the news. She's also stayed out of the public eye for several weeks now. The vote is scheduled for March 26, so counselors will have the final say soon.

It marks another tough moment for the former royal couple in their hometown ties. This episode is supported by our sponsor, C Details in the Description. When you want calm, do not reach for your phone. Lay back and listen, S-O-L-I-SoliPelo.com.
